...When the Harvard and Yale class crews meet for the first time on the Basin this afternoon, a big step toward the removal of the objection will be made. Perhaps the most pleasant side of the race, however, is its friendly informality. Strange as it may seem, the Yale crew will race in a Harvard boat, and we hope that it will be properly welcomed and entertained by the Harvard oarsmen and their friends...
...itself in financial difficulties which would disappear if its actual condition were consistent wish its books, its directors generally put their shoulders to the wheel and bring about a consistency. But when the Harvard University Register shows an actual deficit of a thousand dollars, none but its immediate managers seem to be concerned. The Student Council, which directs its publication, and the Harvard undergraduates, whom we might consider stockholders since they are the beneficients, take no apparent interest in the matter.

Pennsylvania though necessarily an almost unknown quantity is nevertheless dangerous. In mere speculation the chances for a Harvard victory seem the brightest. Much remains of the splendid strength of last year and under the inspiring leadership of Captain Abeles and Coach Wray the crew is developing a finish which makes it not unreasonable to hope for the intercollegiate championship...
