CLASS CREWS WILL COMPETE

The class crew and the single scull trial races will be rowed this afternoon. The singles are scheduled to be the first starters at 5.15 o'clock. All those who have entered this race are to report at Cottage Farm Bridge, where the race will commence, sharp at the above time. Absolutely no allowance will be made for delinquents. The course will be one mile in length, finishing at Harvard Bridge.

The class crew race starts also at Cottage Farm Bridge at 5.40 o'clock. This course will be one mile and seven-eights long, finishing at the Union Boat Club. The men on these crews have had an unusually long and strenuous season, having practised since the end of Febru- ary. The crews are well matched and the race is therefore expected to be very close.

The orders of the class crews are as follows:

Senior crew.--Stroke, Fisher; 7, Parkman; 6, Hilliard; 5, Schroeder; 4, Bassett; 3, Baylies; 2, Graham; bow, Hoyt; cox., Peoples.

Junior crew.--Stroke, Wilson; 7, Jeffries; 6, Curtis; 5, Foster; 4, Buffum; 3, French; 2 Graham; bow, Baldwin; cox., Packard.

Sophomore crew.--Stroke, White; 7, Potter; 6, Lovell; 5, Richardson; 4, Collidge; 3, Webber,; 2, Darling; bow, Ingalls; cox., Henderson.

The Beacon Trophy, which will be awarded the winning crew this afternoon, is especially valuable because of its age and the prominent men who have rowed on the winning crews. The trophy was first won June 19, 1858, when the Harvard boat against a field of six did the there miles in 19 minutes, 22 seconds. President Eliot rowed number 4 and weighed 138 pounds. The other members of the crew were: stroke, B. W. Crowninshield: 5, C. Crowninshield; 3, J. H. Ellison; 2, R. B. Stetson, bow, A. Agassiz.

Of the 47 times the trophy has been awarded, the Seniors have won it twelve, Sophomores twelve, Freshmen eleven, Juniors five, Holworthy Club three, Scientific School twice, and Matthews Club once. The large plaque and intricately designed cup were won last year by the Sophomore crew
