Fl. G. NUDGE. Secretary II. U. b. q
A most voluminous correspondence followed, the
details of which need not be given now, but Yale
would row no more at Worcester and would never
meet Harvard again in any but straightaway
race SO she sent no delegate to the above Con-
vention and, most remarkable of all, actually
stayed out Of the race OF 1871. Yet 1t was not at
Worcester and was straightaway, so that she could
apparently have saved her feelings any very
severe shock.
The Convention met at the time and place ap-
pointed representatives being present from Bow
doin college, Brunswick Me-; Harvard University,
Cambridge, Mass; Amherst college, Amherst,
Mass, and Brown University, Providence, R. l.
These proceeded to organize "The Rowing Asso-
citation OF American Colleges" to frame and adopt
constitution and bylaws and to appoint the
necessary 0f1cers.
These were-Presdent, G. @. Luther, of Brown;
Vice President Il. S. Russell, OF Harvard; Secre-
tary, e. P. Mitchell, OF Bowdotm; Treasurer, A. B.
n II
Roberts, Of Harvard; II. Cornett. OF Brown;
Leveretr Bradley, OF Amherst; F. A. Kicker, Of
Bowdoin. And from that time until now these
yearly meetings have been under the sole control
and management Of the said association. The fol-

THE FARMER BOYS VICTORY.
This year the Springfield Club generously gave a
set OF champion colors and six pieces of plate and
at III. SIN. 3lls. that afternoon the skies OF har-
ward, Brown ana the Aggies all got away in fine
style with an idea of obtaining the permanent
ownership OF said trophies The weather was clear
and nne, the air and water quiet. Nobody had
ever heard OF the Agg1es and so did not expect to-
but long before that eventfu quarter OF an hour
was over both Harvard and Brown formed their
acquaintance in way that has fastened itself
firmly and will likely not be forgotten for years to
come. With light crew, eight pounds man
