these, Wymand, Stoh!man, O'Rourke,
Shea. MunhalI and Maher of the foot ball
squad have expressed their intention of
trying. Therefore you see that there
will be no lack of material to pick from.
Harry Vail will most likely do the
coaching If we can get him. Bill New

yet land the job. This matter will be
attended to within the month, as we
wish to be sure of getting good coach
for the men
"A series of class races will be rowed
early in the spring. Immediately after
a first and second crew will be chosen
to race Annapolis during Easter week.

certain that we will be on hand for the
