Columbia Athletics.

Captain Metcalfe has had the candidates for the University and Freshman crews in active training since January 12. The 'varsity candidates are Metcalfe '91; H. W. Warner '9I; Camp L.; May L.; Gignoux L.; O'Sullivan L.; Brennan L.; Lyle L.; Chrystie '92; Trippe '94; Oakes '92; McKee '93; S. Taintor '93; Prince '93; Pomeroy '93; Romaine '93; Scott '94; Crosby L., and Woods L.

"The freshmen are a promising set, and with faithful, honest work," says the Spectator, "ought to be able to send an eight to New London which will even the present score of five to six in Harvard's favor."

Tuttle '91, has been assisting Captain Metcalfe in coaching the freshmen. For the university crew, Chase H. Mellen '92, L., stroke of last year's 'varsity at the time of its disbandment, has been appointed to coach. Mellen has had experience in rowing at Oxford and is fully capable of occupying the position of Columbia's coach. Captain Miller has also got the tug-of-war team at work, and is hopeful of a repetition of the victories of the last two years. As Miller, anchor, and Douglas, No. 1, will both pull this year, there are only two positions to be filled.
