Applications for seats on the observation train which will follow the boat race with Yale on June 25, must be made at the H. A. A. by 5 o'clock this afternoon. The seats will be $3 each...
...University, second, and Freshman crews leave for their spring training quarters at Red Top by the 1.03 o'clock train today. All of the men had a final workout on the river Friday, and immediately afterward the shells were shipped to New London in charge of boat-rigger Harte. The launches "Pup" and "John Harvard" are already at the training quarters, having left Thursday. Everything will be ready at the arrival of the men this afternoon, so that they can take their first practice row on the Thames river today...

...Yale crew will also begin practice on the Thames this afternoon. The crew at New Haven this year will be a tried boat which has already shown its power. Coach Nickalls has gone at his work this year with unprecedented directness and has turned out a boat containing only three veterans, which bids fair to give a race certainly equal to that which the wearers of the blue exhibited last year. The men have had their difficulties with rough water this year, and welcome the opportunities which they will now have
