Starting last Monday, the entire University crew squad went into strict training for the rest of the season. If conditions are favorable, there will be a race the latter part of next week between the three eights new composing the squad, after which some of the men will be dropped to the various class crews. It is expected that the training table will be started shortly after this race...

Not the least interesting are the photographs, several of President Eliot, one of President Lowell, by no means the best published, another of Dean Haskins, which does not show the geniality of his face; that of Dean Wright lacks the twinkle of the eye which meant so much...

Two of the others belong also to well-recognized types: "Jack's Affair with his Conscience" recalling a familiar episode in Mr. Flandreau's book, and "A Symphony in D-Minor" being a variation on the familiar theme of Mr. Owen Wister's "Philosophy 4."
