Outside the typographical improvements which include a shortened reading line, the featuring of the "leader," and trimmed edges, the reading matter is of exceptional interest. A more straight-forward, sensible and well-written article than "The Crew Coach" by W. H. L. Bell '04, is seldom if ever seen in an undergraduate publication.
