...conflict between the date set for the boat race and Class Day is regrettable, and the disadvantages of such a conflict, as cited in the communication published this morning, are easily recognizable.

Columbia race could not take place later than July 2 and it was thought that the Cornell crew would need at least a week between races. The final choice...
