...changes in the University crew, if permanent, cannot be looked upon as anything but desperate. To take out a man who has set the stroke for two solid years, substituting an entirely new man with only ten days of practice before the Yale race, is staring defeat in the face, with only a possible chance of benefiting the crew. There is no comparison between the effect of putting in a new number 2, as last year, and changing the stroke--the one involves a single man's acquiring the rhythm of an already established stroke, the other making over...

Obliging the manager conducting the competition to make a final report to the "H" men of the sport, or even to the Student Council, stating his decision and reasons, although it undoubtedly eliminates the possibility of graft, cannot cure an evil in itself incurable.
