Oxford Herd Workers But Oxford has won many support» ers since the crew came to Putney, They have unquestionably improved, | having greater length in the water with a firmer and' quicker 'catch with their oars. Every man in the Dark Blue boat is a genuine hurd | worker, J Impartial experts forecast that pro- vided conditions are fair, Oxford wil) ain a slight lead in the first minut here there willpbe a grim struggle for the first mile, The crew capable of taking the lead after passing Ham mersmith Bridge, about a mile and three-quarters from the start, would probably be able to hald it. Naturally cach coach things crew is. going to win, Bossie Phelps of Oxlord says: "Ox ford is better than Cambridge, The spirit, the work and the unison a- mong the men ofa Cambridge must improve during tH next day or two or they will get a surprise, The body work of the Light Blues is not per- fect at present and 1 should say they are not a well balanced boat."
