Columbia Varsity
Eight Outsprints
juniors i'm rials

Jim Rice. mentcr of the Columbia
University crews, put his shaken-up
varsity and the junior varsity boats
through a stiff six-mile workout on the
Harlem River yesterday afternoon. Scv-
cral sprints were the order Of the day.
The varsity boat was superior to the
juniors and invariably crossed the line
first. Thirty-siX to thirty eight strokes
a minute were pulled at times by the
boats.
The faults of the crews have been,
in largo measure. corrected, and the
eights are pointing for the race with
Tale on the Harlem q week from to-
day The Blue and White navy will
hold the last OF the three practice races
scheduled for this month to-day, at 2
D. m. on the Harlem.
The shift on tho starboard side Of
the varsity was not for the purpose of
distributing the weight more evenly,
as many believed, according to Rice.
The coach said that he had made the
changes because he believed he could
get more out OF the men in their new
positions.

eral years ago and amounted to little
more than q friendly bet, but soon
grew to the extent of professional
bookmaking in some cases. Some tour
years ago officers Of the Western Golf

RED CROSS NOTES.
(Contributed)

At meeting of the executive
committee of the Red Cross last
week il was voted to buy an automo-
lille for the use of the community
nurse, The finance committee is al
ready making plans to raise money
for the car.
The Red Cross nursing committee
makes an appeal for equipment Tor
the Red Cross rooms. Plain kitchen
chairs that can be painted white,
and plain tables, would be very ac-
ceptable. Miss Crosby is planning a
baby's corner in the headquarters.
An oval or oblong clothes-basket in
fairly good condition would assist
materially ip making this depart
ment of the work success. Scales,
baby bathtub, nursery chair and a
double-boiler, are all very necessary
The Red Cross is the organization
belonging to all the people. The
committees sincerely hope that there
will be the hearty response to appeals
made at this time such as have beer
experienced in Ellsworth before.
