...opposite the site of the old Boston Athletic Association boathouse, a quarter of a mile below the Harvard bridge. Buoys will be situated at the start and finish to do away with the confusion and to enable the judges to decide the race definitely. It is almost impossible to predict the winner for this afternoon, as in Tuesday's race, not one of the five eights was able to gain a length. This final race is between Claverly, Mt. Auburn street, Randolph, Russell, and Thayer, as Dunster-Dana-Drayton, the sixth crew to qualify cannot row. All men should report...

There have been so many slips 'twixt the cup and the lip that we hesitate to predict just what the outcome will be. There is one thing, however, on which we can rest assured: the petition and the proposed plans of the undergraduate committee, which will soon be made public, are going to have a good deal of weight and no one need feel that our efforts have...
