 The Yale navy has ordered two new shells for the coming season. Hereto fore the Yale crews have for the most part used paper shells, but this year a cedar shell is to be tried.

The shell will be 60 feet inches in length, about 23 inches amidships, and will weigh about 235 pounds. The rigging will be according to the new measure ments made by MT. Cook. A new paper shell has also been ordered from Waters. Cornell and Harvard have both obtained cedar shells, the Har- yard one coming from England.

 ALL TO GET A Y. G. A.
 The management of the Yale Gym nastic association has decided to give a ". G. A to all members of the team that took part in the Princeton meet. In former years the 'Y. G. A." was given only to those men who won a first place in one of the two regular winter meets. It is hoped that this step will further increase the interest in gymnastics.
