Now that the annual junior varsity boatrace
among Cornell, Columbia and Pennsylvania is
only few days of. the present season OF COL
lege rowing may be said TO be well under way
This yearly contest that takes place on Memo
rial Day Always marks an epoch in the crews
work. and generally affords some sort Of a stable
basis on which TO figure out possibilities for the
final regatta at POughkeepsie three weeks later
II is a curious fact. quite worthy of note that
the junior varsity winners of the last two years
have also been the victors in the Poughkeepsie
regattas that followed. Two years ago Pennsyl-

sic. Whether this rule viii hold good in the
coming race on the SchuyIkill next Friday is a
rowing problem that is interesting college men
at present. one Of the chief charms about this
junior varsity contest IS its absolute uncertain
~ and the inability Of the wise men of inter-
colleSiate aQuat:cs TO get any comprehensive line
on the abilities OF the three competitors. Each
crew practises in its own waters, and there is
no opportunity for one man, by watching the
eights daily practice. at Poughkeepsie to
gather a satisfactory idea Of their abilities. AS
no men who have never rowed in a varsity
eight cared race at POughkeepsie are eligible
for junior crew. the power TO estimate the
mems merits by their past performances is also
impossible. except in unusual case such as
that of Pennsylvania at present. This should
give Pennsylvania, on paper at least. decided
advantage. and should make the Quakers favor

in presenting the play upon the stage
corresponds almost exactly with the hours
in which the story is supposed to have oc-
Cured. The Illusion is: kept up even be-
tween the scenes, since the time between
each of these is supposed to be occupied
