Faculty at Princeton Puts Ban on
intercollegiate Rozcing.
lRy Telegraph TO The Tribuns.I

Princeton. y J.. April 2o-Rowing interests AZ
Princeton received a setback last evening. "Aen
the faculty decided that for the present at least
Princeton should not be represented by a varsity
crew In other words. the faculty refused 20 al-o"
rowing 70 be adopted as intercollegiate sport
This action came as a decided disappointment 70
those who have been interested in rowing ~
Princeton and especially to c. :. Titus and MS
varsity crew. who have worked faithfully since
February. in hopes that there would he race This
spring
The rowing management. however is not dis
couraged and the Intercollegiate rowing Will he
continued The faculty did not sound the death
knen Of intercollegiate rowing. but did decree that
at present Princeton is not warranted in taking up
this sport saying 1T is deemed inadvisahIe for
the present at least that there should he another
intercollegiate activity added TO the list especially
because Of the inability Of the athletic association
10 maintain crew on the same basis as al other
universities Of Friucetons standing
The faculty did not decide upon the large qUes-
ton Of irtercoIegiate rowing future, but did
take a decided stand against rowing as al present
conducted at the large universities. with the
months OF training professional coaches, lonS and
EXPENSIVE trips and the tendency to exagSerate
what chould be merely tucidental-the winning Of
races. The faculty expressed itself as in favor
Of rowing purely amateur sport for SPORT
sake. and the opinion expressed was tnat if Prince
ton ever does have a varsity crew for intercol-
legiate races. It viii be conducted that basis.
without the services of professional or disinter-
ested coach without expensive training table
and without .ong and expensive trips involving
neglect curriculum work. The faculty Is In
favor of conducting crews rs at oxford and Cam
bridge II that could be accomplished in this coun-
try.
The rowing arrangement also denied the truth
of many arti,i ia that have appeared from time 10
time this year concerning dual race for Prince
ton. The work of the class crews Will continue.
and the interclass races will be held in June as
planned.
In discussing the situation this morning The
Daily PrincetonIan." the managing editor OF which
is also assistant manager Of the crews. said:
Perhaps al first sight this seems wrong. but
those who know all the conditions assert that the
best interests of rowing Will be fostered 10y the
step The reasons for the decision are many
there are already too many sports struggling Tor
existence here; rowing is expensive as commonly
managed and our athletic association lacks the
funds. We cannot with deCency accept annual sub
scriptions from our already too generous alumni
Indulging in intercollegiate races dual or other
wise involves a limited rivalry which is unde-
sirable, especially in this sport
