Four girls' colleges have been invited to send relay teams, and the best New England swimmers will be drawn from every quarter to offer a varied program.

This will be the first time that the beauties of the mermaid have been publicly on display is the Harvard pool, although girls have always been allowed to use the pool under certain circumstances.
