CREWS TAKE TO WATER WITH WARMER WEATHER

Taking advantage of the fact that the thin coat of ice on the Charles had sufficiently melted the University and Freshman crews took to the water again yesterday, the University crews under the guidance of Coach E. J. Brown '96 and the Freshmen under Coach H. H. Haines.

Both crews will be working out regularly every day from now on. The Freshman are still rowing in the Leviathan but will probably go out in shells tomorrow.

Coach Brown has divided the leading candidates for the University crew into five squads each man being classified according to his college year. He will keep these five crews, shifting the men around to try their ability, until Spring Recess, picking the University and Junior University crews after the men return from vacation.

At present it is the task of filling the stroke and coxswain positions that is Coach Brown's chief problem. These positions were made vacant by the graduation of John Watts '28 and C. H. Pforzheimer '28 last June.

There are several candidates for both berths now, and it will be Coach Brown's task to choose the best as soon as possible.
