...propositions of the Yale University boat club for a race on the terms proposed by Yale, the Cornell navy wishes to express its own preference in general for an open regatta controlled by the five universities usually participating in rowing. Such a regatta Cornell always stands ready to enter. In case, however, it is impossible to organize such regatta, Cornell still believes that, in view of the complications which are arising from the difficulty of arranging races and dates among these five universities, it would be advantageous to all and beneficial to college rowing, if a rowing association representing...

No men will be allowed to enter indoor games after March 1, in order that the men may have a thorough rest before the work on the track begins. The dual games with Pennsylvania have been given up, as the experience last year shows that three sets of games in one month are too many...
