COACHING AT HARVARD.

Professional to Instruct Crews.

CAMBRIDGE. Oct. 2s.--An article by Prof
II. g. White. chairman Of the Harvard athletic
committee. written for the November issue
Of the Harrard Monthly, shows that Harvard
lie soon to change from her established policy
OF amateur coaching for her crews and 60
over TO professional coaching. The article,
written in reply to a criticism of the COM
mittee by an article on the ROWING situation
In the Monthly last month, states the relation
OF tbs committee TO the university and further
the right man last year she would have gone
to profession al coaching then. Prof. White
further says that no matter what has been
the opinion of Harvard men as to professi onal
crew coaching In the past, evidence from all
sides has come TO the committee to the effect
that they now favor the professional system.
