OFFICIAL LETTER FROM VISION
SIN
The management of the Yale navy
has received an official letter from the
University of Wisconsin. In It Is stated
that in accordance with the decision Of
the students last week, a crew VIII be
sent east to row Yale. The race will
take place on Saturday, May 20. Two
points of detail still remain unsettled.
Wisconsin wishes to row at New Lon
don and does not like the course on the
harbor, while Yale decidedly objects to
row anywhere but on the harbor, Lake
Whitney or Lake Saltonstall, The
second objection of the western crew Is
because the freshmen are to row. This
point, however, will probably be insist
ed upon by Yale
