...there has been this year but little inclination to confidently name the winner in the class races. Since Col. Bancroft has ceased coaching the various crews, there has been, it would seem, an element of uncertainty in regard to the final result of the year's work. The upper-classmen who have carefully watched the progress made by the men in training, declare the chances of success are remarkably even, with the odds, perhaps, slightly in favor of eighty-five.
