THE UNIVERSITY CREW.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The University crew begins final training this afternoon for the race with Yale, which will be rowed on the Thames just four weeks from today. It is no use denying that the defeat by Cornell was a keen disappointment to every undergraduate, made especially so by a firm belief that the crew was absolutely unbeatable, but in spite of this set-back, the chances for victory on July 1 are still apparently bright. The University crew seems to be essentially a four-mile combination, lacking the ability to sprint which wins the shorter race, and its strength and staying power are counted on to win for Harvard at New London. It is even believed by some that last Saturday's defeat will be of real advantage to the eight, as tending to do away with the overconfidence which has proved fatal to so many college athletic teams.
