It is suggested that if the National Regatta, held at New York in June, included two races for College Fours and Eights, to be called, respectively, the "Visitors' Cup" and the "Ladies' Cup," nearly all the colleges would send crews to one or both. Cornell, Columbia, Yale, and Harvard would possibly meet in the "Ladies' Cup," while the same colleges, and many of the smaller ones, like Dartmouth, Princeton, etc., would send fours to compete in the other race.

Cornell appears to be all enthusiasm to revive a college sport for which she has so many advantages, and if the race is decided on she will probably send a formidable crew. We hope that the rowing interest will be awakened among our Freshmen, and that it will call forth the good material they undoubtedly possess. At the same time they would do well to remember the answer sent by the Columbia Freshmen, and to consider that it is their...
