CREW SQUAD HAD LAST PRACTICE

The University and Freshman crew squads were formally disbanded yesterday by Coaches Haines and Beane, as it was thought unwise to attempt to continue the rowing in face of the outbreak of war. The boat houses are to remain open, however, and Coach Haines will be on hand every afternoon until further notice to give individual instruction. Shells will be made up and sent out every day at 6.30 o'clock, in order that those Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen who can spare the time may keep up their work in preparation for possible future seasons.

The Freshman manager competition, which has been running for several months, was also called off, and the managers surviving the last cut were appointed as a committee on Freshman rowing, composed as follows: J. R. Clements, B. H. B. Damon, W. J. Louderbach, A. L. Putnam, G. P. Reynolds and R. Tuckerman.

Two scrub crews, composed for the most part of first squad men, went out for a short row yesterday afternoon and held two short races.
