Drury Watches Crew From Launch--Simmons Returns

Illness again stepped into the first Crimson eight yesterday when Sam Drury had to captain his crew from the observer's seat in the coaching launch. He had a slight cold and to minimize the chances of further hampering ills and ailments, it was thought better to move Bobbie Cutler from two to stroke. Sam will be back today and Ed Simmons will also settle into his old post at number four. Simmons returned yesterday to the first shell but only as number two and Austin took the fourth sweep with other seatings remaining the same as on Tuesday.

Coach Charlie Whiteside's prescribed workout yesterday was an eight-mile trip to the end of the basin and back.
