The University boat house opened yesterday for the early rowing. During the past months the shells have been overhauled and repaired, and a complete new set of rowing machines has been put in the gymnasium room. A powerful gasoline engine connected by two shafts with the tank has recently been installed, and by means of two large propellors a surface current of about six miles an hour can be created. This will make the blade-work much more satisfactory as the principal evil of the stationary shell is the weight of dead water that the oar has to displace. Several trials made with the system in the past two weeks have proved successful.
The Weld boat house will not be opened for some time. The old shells have been overhauled, but no other changes have been made.
