Whiteside Starts School for Would-Be Coxswains

Issues Call for Lightweights Who Want to Learn Trade

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

All men weighing less than 130 pounds who have a yen to shoot orders at a boatload of sweating oarsmen are invited by Coach Whiteside to attend the first meeting of his school for coxswains tonight in the Upper room of the Union at 7 o'clock. Whiteside says that ambitious lightweights will be taught enough about commands, balance, bladework, and tiller-handling to enable them to take out a shell without previous experience.

To illustrate what a crew ought not to do as well as what they should do, moving pictures taken from the cox's seat will be shown and commented on. After the meeting tonight all men who are interested will be put in charge of experienced coxes and given instructions twice a week until the river opens. Those who will speak are: Head Coach Whiteside, Freshman Coach Bert Haines, Edward H. Bennett Jr. '37 of the 1935 Varsity, Edward T. White '38, of last year's Freshman, and Edward T. Barker '37, of the Varsity 150-pounders.
