...time I took charge of the crew, in February, there still remained owing to the 'Varsity management $351.32 from our old Freshman debt of $765. For various reasons it seemed necessary to Captain Goodrich that the class should buy a new shell, and our position was still further aggravated by an accident to the barge which cost $100. Under the circumstances there seemed nothing to do but to collect as much as possible from the class This was accordingly done, and we raised $842.50, practically all of which was turned in before the Spring recess...
Under these circumstances it seemed reasonable to help the '98 Weld crew, which had gotten heavily in debt owing to a series of misfortunes culminating in their boat race. We felt justified in doing so, as the Weld cres are virtually second class crews and the money had been subscribed for class and for crew purposes. After paying them $134.73 there now remains $264.25 in the '98 crew treasury. Of this money a certain amount will have to be spent to meet unexpected expenses. The remainder, some $250.00, is still to be disposed of. It had been my intention...
...debt. As the 'Varsity management feels unable to do so, I have been asked by Captain Perkins to help them with the surplus money left in the '98 crew treasury.

I hope there will be no serious objection to this manner of disposing of the money. If, however, anyone thinks it should...
...second concert of the Freshman musical clubs was given last night in Brattle Hall, Cambridge. The hall was fairly well filled, but there was a disappointingly small number of Freshmen present. Inasmuch as the concert was given for the benefit of the class crew, and this fact published in the posters, the number of Freshmen present was only a fair indication of the support that the crew has received so far this season. Of the three clubs, the Mandolin Club gave rather the best selections. They received the greates number of encores and the pieces were all executed with much...
...reply postal card calling for crew subscriptions has been sent to every member of the Freshman class, and out of this number only forty replies have been received. It seems a great pity, that out of a class as large as 1901, not enough money can be collected to support the crew, and that only forty out of six hundred and fifty have paid any attention to the postals. Every man ought to take pride enough in his class to see that the money necessary to send the crew to New London is raised. This money can never be collected...
