...PULZIFER of the New York World has made an offer to pay the expenses of sending an American crew to England to meet the champion Oxford eight, the crew to be the winner of the Harvard-Yale race. Although this offer appears attractive at first, it involves a point which deserves consideration. Harvard will doubtless be called upon to make some official reply.
