...writer, however, seems to forget that the larger colleges, like Harvard and Yale, have much better facilities for furnishing the much-talked-of "practical" education, than do his "small and weak colleges."

With only two crews in a race the chances of a "win" are far better than with seven or eight, and, as Harvard and Yale want to be winners all the time, they will yield no chances, and, consequently, will try to forget that an Inter-collegiate Association exists...
