FALL ROWING SEASON STARTS NEXT THURSDAY AFTERNOON

The University crew management announces that the fall rowing season will open Thursday afternoon with a meeting of all prospective oarsmen from the class of 1923 in the Weld Boat Club at 4 o'clock. Coach William Haines, who has directed the work of the University crews for the past four years, will address the candidates. Wendell Davis '21, captain of the University crew will outline plans for the fall rowing.

Coaches Available This Week.

It will not be until Monday that the squad gets on the river but until that time individuals will have the opportunity of going out in comps and singles and coaches will be on hand to instruct beginners. Crews will be picked to represent each of the Freshman dormitories. All of these will be provided ample coaching facilities, and every man will have an opportunity to row throughout the entire fall. Crews will be so made up that men having afternoon laboratory work will not be barred from the competition. Later in the season a regatta will be arranged in which all candidates, as decided into dormitory first, second, and third crews, will have a chance to enter.

Single sculling and pair-oar races will also form a part of the regatta program. All men interested in this form of rowing will have a chance to get on the river this week as the boat houses are now open.

Upperclassmen Start Monday.

Rowing for members of the three upper classes will not commence until Monday, when candidates will be called out for a meeting in the Newell Boathouse at 4 o'clock. The squad will be divided into club crews, as in past years, and will be put on the river that afternoon. These eights will also compete in the Fall Regatta. Scull and pair-oar races for upperclassmen are included in the events for the regatta. The Newell Boathouse, is now ready for any men who wish to avail themselves of the opportunity for early practice for these events.

No previous experience is required of either the 1923 or upperclass candidates. In experienced men are urged by the rowing management to come out early, however, in order that they may receive all the instruction possible. It will be necessary for candidates to supply themselves with the following equipment: sweater, rowing shoes, hat, rowing pants, shirt, long drawers, and socks.

Manager Competitions Short.

Candidates from 1922 for second assistant manager of the University crew are to report on Thursday at 1.05 o'clock at Randolph 32. This year the competition will be shorter than in the past. Freshman manager candidates will be called out on the same day. They are to report at Newell at 3.30 o'clock. The competitions will be for managerial positions on the dormitory crews. The best man will be selected from each of the three Freshman halls. This intramural competition will furnish valuable experience for the regular 1923 crew manager competition to take place in the spring.
