...University eights had their last workout on the Charles yesterday afternoon, when the first and second crews had a two and one-half mile brush, the former winning by four lengths after they had given the scrubs a two-length handicap. There was a slight shift in the second boat because H. Brown was unable to row on account of a slightly sprained back. S. A. Duncan '22 went from 6 to stroke and D. H. Morris '21 took his place.

But for many the change presents difficulties. With prices soaring even higher than a "straw" in a heavy gale, and with rueful memory of the fact that Max received the hat of yester-year in return for necessary movie fare last autumn, what is there left for the woeful student...
