Hitherto it has been customary to dispense with a second eight in the early part of spring, and keep but a few substitutes in training. The experience the last three years has proved that changes are often necessary as late as May or June. There will be no substitutes competent to take places on the regular crew unless they have had the same advantages the crew has had. These they...
