...have decided to try the experiment of issuing a literary supplement. We have felt for some time that in one department of college journalism Harvard is at a disadvantage. The CRIMSON, we flatter ourselves, represents Harvard creditably in the matter of news and current comment. The Advocate represents Harvard creditably in the line of current comment and light stories, and the Lampoon certainly places us far in advance of other colleges in the matter of humorous writing and illustration.

Having published an article upon our own university crew, we now supplement it by a description of the crew which our rivals will put upon the water this season. We are indebted to an article which recently appeared to an article which recently appeared in the News for the following account of the men who will probably obtain seats in the Yale boat. Thirteen men are now in training for the crew, including all but the of three men who rowed in last year's race. The three vacant slides are those of Scott, No. 7; parrott...
