THE ROWING SITUATION.

Spring rowing is not a favorite sport this year. That is to say, those who enjoy spring rowing per se are standing in groups of five to seven--awaiting the arrival of the man who doesn't care. There seems to be nothing much in the pleasures of mere physical exercise. But rowing would become popular if the men knew that the winning crew were to be given their oars or some silver cups. As it is, the present condition of class rowing is disheartening. The blame is upon the men who pretend an interest in class crews.
