As retold by
Bruce Lowitt
Yeshiva University decides to field a crew team. They practice for hours
every day but always come in dead last in every race.
Finally, Yankel decides to spy on the Columbia University crew, which wins many
races. After a day of watching Columbia practice he returns to Yeshiva
University.
"I have figured out their secret," he tells the rest of the team.
"We've been doing it backwards."
"What do you mean?"
"They have eight guys rowing and one guy shouting."
