Anything Happens When Grew

! WELLESLEY, Mass., (AV—More than 250 Wellesley College girls
iire taking cr^w this season, racing on Lkke Waban in eight-oar shells.
|- f Not many colleges offer this sjiort to women. And none of the
hthers use the eight-oared craft, say Wellesley athletic directors.
The speedy, streamlined crew members admittedly are good ath
letes. ;
\ But oldtime graduate** say they don’t know how to yodel.
' A Wellesley girl did,not have to row well when the sport was in
troduced 60 years ag(K She had to be a good singeV though, or she

The chief activity of the crews of the 1880's was to serenade the

It'was more important then to know how to handle a dress than
an oar, tf one of those tent-like garments got waterlogged, the row-
boat Capsized. . i_ ^'
One of the world's fanciest rowing costumes was Worn by Welles-
kiy’a 1888 c’ass crew, •
A cherished photograph shows the girls in high-necked, long-
sleeved voluminous dresses. The dark material was scrolled all
over with white embroidery. Crew members also wore upturned
straw sailor hats. , - (
