Bill Leavitt, cox on last year's combination crews, got a frosty heave-ho off the Newell float yesterday after his eight defeated four other Varsity shells over a one-mile course in the river basin. The winning time was 5:17.5.
Coach Tom Bolles, winding up crew activity for the fall, started his five eights just below Cottage Farm Bridge, with the Leavitt unit pulling ahead and leading all the way to the finish opposite MIT's sailing pavilion. Stroke George Lodge held the winners' beat at about 30.
Three feet back was the fast-closing Art Rouner-stroked shell, which had a six-foot margin on the number three finisher, stroked by Charley Rimmer.
