...both surprised and grieved to hear that for some as yet unexplained reason the petition of the boat club to employ Mr. Bancroft as a coach was refused. We consider this to be a great blow to the boating interests of Harvard and particularly unfortunate just now when we seem to be almost at our wits' end. For weeks the CRIMSON has remained silent on this subject being unwilling to announce any rumors, but we have patiently waited until the time should come when the welcome news that the petition had been granted could be published as a fact...

Winthrop '91, rowed 2 on the crew last year but has not yet begun training...
...short time ago you printed an editorial in regard to the Freshman Glee and Banjo Clubs. It seems to have taken no effect in the case of the Banjo Club, so I should like to ask, is it right that '94 be deprived of a banjo club through the neglect of the 'varsity club ?
