crew attending the "regattas" would more
than pay his necessary expenses through
college, board included Are not the poor
students, then, excluded ? Who constitute
nine-tenths of the students at American
collcgcs-sons of the rich or of the poor /?
We all know and glory IN the fact that
they are poor boys. If physical develop.
ment were obtained by these races, we
might be reconciled thereto, but when a
portion of the crew have to be carried in
fanting condition from the boat, it does
not look like lasting physical bene-
fit 1t is also, well known that these 're-
gattas' do interfere with proper attention
to college studies, but of this we will not
speak. 1t is said that college is little
world of itself, and being SO it is not
strange that they should follow the Gus
toms of the world. Hence bets are freely
made and pools sold in certain rooms of
the college on the result. 1t is not John
Morrissey and his class alone who monopo-
lie the gambling at these college races.
Bankers and brokers of Wall street ven
ture their thousands while the STU
dents risk their mites. The whole thing
has become demorallzed and seems to be
managed for the sole benefit of gamblers
and the disgrace of students. We thank
heaven that it is over, and we wish that we
could say that 1t was the last of the kind.
The gambling and betting which kept
Bowdoin's crew and others away; the dis
turbance which, but for the interference of
the police, would have been a bloody riot
between the students from Yale and Har-
ward the other causes which we have
mentioned and many others to which we
have not alluded will surely put speedy
end TO intercollegiate regattas. God speed
the day.
