Finding a stroke for the university eight is the most serious problem before the coaches. Four men have been tried in the seat with indifferent success, and the place will probably not be definitely settled for some weeks.

The problem of giving an influential position to a minister is largely analogous to doing the same for a teacher, which has been accomplished to a great extent by state support. This, however, is impossible...
