Under the present system, the regular practice of the University crew squad consists entirely in individual work by the members of the squad, each man rowing his own stroke under the direct supervision of the coach. This system will continue indefinitely. It is thought that by this method the individual members of the squad can more easily see their faults as pointed out to them and find more opportunity for improvement than when rowing together. This method of individual practice is used for a large part of the rowing season at Cornell and has been found very successful...

The University squad of twenty-four men will report at the boathouse at 2.30 o'clock this afternoon for the first work of the season.

It will lay out a system and direct the policy, but will not undertake to interfere with the coach or the coaching system, which will remain substantially as in the past...
...Religious Union held its first meeting of the year in Phillips Brooks House last evening. Professor F. G. Peabody made a short address giving a general history of the union and describing its aims. It is the direct descendant, spiritually at least, of a small society for religious inquiry established at Harvard soon after the Revolution. Although a body for religious inquiry, the union is by no means an organization for philosophic discussion. It aims to help men in the solution of religious problems without any previous examination of their religious affiliations...
