HARVARD'S LEVIATHAN ON THE CHARLES RIVER
A common sight on the Charles River during the fell and early
spring is this unique barge, used by the Harvard rowing coach to train
men who have never been in a host before. The novices row in this
for severs! weeks before they are allowed to go into a shell Noto the
“promenade deck" in the middle, along which the coach strolls, giving
each man individual instruction. %
