The Crews.

All the crews have now left the river and are at work in the gymnasium. The university crew is rowing on the machines and pulling chest-weights. The number of candidates is now small, but it will be greatly increased after the vacation. With the exception of the freshmen, the class crews are not in strict training. Eighty-nine has been playing football for exercise; '90 and '91are taking walks and pulling chest-weights. The freshmen are rowing in the 'varsity room on the machines. They are obliged to be through by five o'clock, and as they have nearly three crews at work, the lack of room is very apparent and interferes greatly with their work. Their average weight is at present nearly 156 pounds.
