...should be made to feel their importance to Harvard rowing interests. We expect them to excel the usual freshman record in May, and we hope to see them victorious in their inter-collegiate race. Again, it is to our present freshman crew that we must look for men to fill places in the university, which will soon be vacated by members of the present junior and senior classes.

Ward, the pitcher of the New York League Club to coach the men in their preparation...
