PRACTICE BEGINS FOR UNIVERSITY OARSMEN

All candidates for positions in the University boat are to report dressed for rowing in the Newell boathouse at 3.45 o'clock. The men will be graded into University crews and will continue as such for a considerable time. When the oarsmen have been thoroughly tested out, the lower boats will be divided into class crews for the remainder of the season. All these will continue to row from the Newell boathouse throughout the year, for no crews will be sent down to Weld.

About eighty men reported yesterday for the 1919 crews. They were put to work in two relays on the machines, each squad rowing for a comparatively short time so that the first practice would not strain the men. Coach Haines and Captain D. P. Morgan '16 were supervising this practice. A. Beane '11 and B. Harwood '15 were also at the boathouse coaching various individuals on the machines. C. T. Abeles '13 instructed all candidates for the position of coxswain. It is hoped that a large number of new oarsmen will come out today; they should report dressed ready to row in Newell at 5 o'clock sharp.

A general call for University and more Freshman coxes is issued. The men are to report at the Newell boathouse at 3.15 o'clock. Each candidate must be provided with rowing clothes at this time.
