announcement of the date for the in
t~ercollegiate regatta at Poughkeep-
sic as Friday, June &c, the American
college rowing season is fairly we'll
outlined. Although there are still
dates for various dual and triangular
regattas yet to be fixed it is apparent
that rowing is steadily increasing in
popularity as a college sport. In the
east, middle west and Pacific coast
sections the various college and uni
versity crews r already we'll adj
vanced in their indoor and machine
training and are awaiting the first
opportunity to dip their sweeps in
lake or river. ,
Reports of unusually early practice
rows may be expected if the present
mild weather continues and once on
the water the progress of both the
crews and the final arrangements for
the preliminary and championship re
gattas will be rapid. AS viewed at
present the 1914 rowing season prom
ises to equal if not exceed in num-
Der and variety of races that of the
previous year. Several of the lead
ing eastern universities have COM
pleted tentative rowing schedules
while others are still in making.
Neither the United States military
academy nor Syracuse have as yet
announced their arrangements for the
coming season. The dates for the
Harvard, Cornell and Princeton crews

The University of Michigan foot
ball association is already planning
an elaborate compaign of preparation
for the next autumn in view OF the
Harvard game tt be played at Cam
bridge on October 81. At a recent
meeting of the candidates to discuss
the hardest schedule thai the Wolv-
crimes have ever attempted Director
Bartelme talked on the necessity OF
all the men seeing to their scholastic
eligibility. Trainer Farrell spoke OF
the preparation that the Michigan
athletes would have to make to meet
a team of Harvard's calibre on equal
terms. The Michigan trainer ex-
pressed himself as far from satisfied
- r. ott;tuIo of tho football men
toward developing themselves to the
greatest extent. He advanced, In
support of this, the fact that the
veterans on the squad never put IN
an appearance at the gymnasium IN
the winter but they are satisfied with
the condition they can attain with the
fall training alone. He said that
Harvard men train all winter ana
summer, and if Michigan does not
want to be disgracefully routed IN
her first clash with the pier OF east
ern universities her athletes must
show some of this same spirit.
Two third year veterans, called up
on to speak, all dwelt on the neeo
of a long training season. Pontlus
said the Michigan football players
had the chance in their grasp to
make he west respected in the east.
If they were defeated, the west would
not be given another opportunity for
years. Craig impressed upon the
men that they should come to the
classes that are to be organized and
take part in the spring outdoor prac-
tice.
The veteran trainer Dad Moul-
ton. who recently resigned as track
and field coach to the Leland Stan
ford university squad, has accepted
a similar position with the University
of Santa Clara.
