TRY TO REDUCE PROBATION CASUALTIES ON 1928 CREW

In an effort to save a good proportion of material now available for the Freshman crew next spring from the probation ban, Coach Stevens has instituted a system of "Crew Advisors" to aid men in their studies. There is no thought of tutorial work in this system, since it is designed primarily to offer advice which will help the men to devote their time to the best advantage. Each Freshman is assigned to some upper-classman who rows, and is free to call upon him at any time.

In former years, casualties among crew candidates in the entering class have been unusually heavy as a result of the November hour examinations, and the examinations at mid-years. Coach Stevens hopes that this innovation will do much to remedy this.
