From Fours to Eights
The 1914 Junior Varsity crew was coached by Report F. Horrick '95, a great benefactor of Harvard rowing. According to the H book of Harvard athletics, the second crews between 1899 and 1914 had rowed their annual races in fours. The change was made to eights in 1914 for Harvard's trip to Henley.
The boating of the crew for the Henley regatta follows: Of the members of the crew, James Talcott is now a New York merchant; Henry Meyer and Laurence Curtis are Boston lawyers; Henry and John Middendorf are Baltimore financiers; David Morgan is a New York financier; Charles Lund in a Boston physician; and Henry Kreger is a Cleveland lawyer. The 1914 eight will use the same shell in which they won at Henley. The shell is known as No. 15, and has recently been used by the Harvard 150-pound crew.
