Figures point to a University crew victory over Princeton on Lake Carnegie tomorrow, but in this year of an absolutely new start for crew work in both colleges, no true comparison of the opposing eights can be made until after the race.

So far this season, Coach Haines has been following his crews regularly in the smaller of the two. The larger and faster boat is now being put in commission...
...meeting of the distance runners will be held in a few days to decide definitely as to whether or not the University R. O. T. C. will enter a team in the Patriot's Day marathon relay race. There have been some objections to such a step from members of the track team on the ground that the race comes during vacation. It is probable that the team will enter, however, as it will not be necessary for the men to remain at Cambridge all the week. It is planned to have them merely keep in condition by daily jogs...
