HAINES SHIFTS '48 TO SHELLS

Freshmen who have been rowing in the Leviathan will be sent out in shell barges for the first time on Monday, according to crew coach Bert Haines. With several experienced crews already shaping up, Haines is beginning to make plans for the informal season this fall.

Several members of the Class of 1948 who rowed at prep school have been promoted from the training ship to racing boats already. The remaining '48 rowers will spend some time in a shell barge, a slightly slower and wider variety of shell, before advancing to the regulation boats.
