...crews does not at all apply, since the 'Varsity men can not practice by themselves until the day before the class race and then disperse into their class boats, and row with other men with half the efficacy that poorer rowers who have been training together. The university crew cannot well join the class crews, if they would.

We can predict a long continuation of the useful life...

An age of sane ideas about bodily exercise, outside sports and proper care for health seems at length dawning near. And we cannot repress a feeling of pride that at Harvard are found the seeds of this reform...
