NAME ABBOTT TO
 ASSIST AS COACH
 OF YALE OARSMEN

New Haven, Conn, Feb. 22-An- nouncement was made here vest erday by the Yale rowing authorities of the selection of Mather AImon Abbott, for many years coach of the Groton School crews, permanent assistant coach of the Yale navy.
 The announcement was made soon after it became known that the Yale Corporation had appointed MT. Ab- bolt assistant professor of Latin in the college. MT. Abbott will be per manent assistant to Guy Nicwalls, head coach of all Yale crews, and will receive no salary. The appointment is along the line of greater faculty in- terest in athletics, and is in a way similar to the situation at Princeton where MT. Spaeth is a member of the faculty
 As soon as the ice breaks up in the Housatonic river the rowing squad will go there for most of it's spring work and, should the experiment. prove a success, the Yale rowing plant will be rebuilt there, including a new George Adee Memorial boat house.
 The race with Harvard will still be rowed, on the Thames, but YaIe's home rowing will be on the Housatonic where an ideal straight course of calm water has been selected. A railroad line follows the entire course, with the resulting commercial advantages
