...latest development of the naval limitation programme at Washington is the proposal that the 1922 class at Annapolis be dropped next June without commissions. The House naval committee has made an informal recommendation to this effect in an attempt to achieve the necessary reduction in personnel. The committee proposes also to limit each congressman and senator to two appointments to the Academy instead of five as has been the case during the last few years.

When the University crew makes its official debut on the river against Pennsylvania next April it will be taking the first step in a schedule calculated to test its power to the limit. Not in years has a University eight faced a task such as is called for on this season's program, for not only does the crew card list the names of five of the leading combinations in the country, crews that have during past years won highest honors in intercollegiate rowing, but it contains many other racing features including the usual meets with...
