Perhaps some men do not know the large amount of money needed by the crew, and cannot appreciate that without this amount of money victory is hopeless. The fact is that this year the crew is in need of an unusually large amount of money.

For several years past the college has not been so much in need of new material to fill vacancies as at the present time. Only four old players from last year's nine and substitutes are now in college-the other positions must be filled by men whose experience in baseball has been limited to practice with class nines.
