Since I'm pretty used to these articles at this point, I'll go ahead and grab another. Wizardman 03:46, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Here's what I found on this one:

  • Anything on who E.R. Spencer is? Everyone else has something in parentheses on their relation with the event while he doesn't, which I found curious.
    No, I can't find anything at this point. He's listed as a coach for Oxford for this year's race, but there's no evidence he rowed in the event (for either university) nor did he coach before or since... a minor mystery that I will continue to try to solve, but as of now, nada mas.

  • "Oxford's Philip Roff was Australian while D. Spencer was American, Cambridge's B. Jackson was South African while John Haasland hailed from New Zealand" I'd put and after the comma, as it would read a little better with that.
    Done. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:03, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

That's all I found, article on hold. Wizardman 00:32, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, I've responded above. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:03, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
