Dark Blues In Training -- A study in expressions from the Dark Blues as they train in rough water at Wallingford. From left they are: M.I. Ross (rowing in place of Gobbo who has influence): E.V. Vine: J.M. Wilson; D.P. Wells, a new "Blue"; R.D.T. Raikes: J.G. McLeod: E.O.G. Rain. Although J.A. Gobbe, The Australian President of the Oxford University Boat Club, has selected his crew for the Boat Race, he has not finally decided upon seating positions, and the Eight are still being "re-shuffled" during training, to ensure that the best possible combination meets Cambridge. February 24, 1955. (Photo by Fox Photos).
