The following plans have been made for this spring for Class, University and Freshman crews.
On May 8 the class races will be held, the winner of which will race the winning Yale class crew in the Charles River Basin on May 15. The distance rowed in these class races will be 1 7/8 miles. In addition to rowing the winning Yale Class Crew, the winning crew will receive its numerals in class colors.
On April 24 the University crew goes to Annapolis to race the Naval Academy. Relations with Annapolis were begun again last year after a lapse of three years from 1910 to 1914, during which there was no race. Four weeks later both the University and Freshman crews go to Ithaca, N. Y., to race the Cornell University and Freshman boats. Both squads will go to Sheldrake, about 20 miles from Ithaca, on the lake, a few days before the races, where they will practice daily. The races themselves will be rowed on Lake Cayuga.
The University second crew is again entered in the American Henley Regatta, which will be held at Philadelphia on May 22, the same day as the races with Cornell. Princeton, Pennsylvania and Syracuse will probably be entered, as last year, when the University second crew won easily. Yale is not planning to send a crew this year. It is probable, however, that Annapolis will be represented.
The annual Yale races will take place at New London on June 25, between the University and Yale Varsity eight and the Freshman eights. It has not been definitely decided whether there will be four-oared races or not. The Freshman races will be rowed down-stream in the morning, while the University race will be held late in the afternoon and will be rowed up-stream over the regular four-mile course.
After the Easter holidays all men who are cut from the University squad will be organized into the usual club crews, in preparation for their races which will be held sometime during the second or third week in May. The single scull races with Yale have been set for May 8, the same day that the class crew races with Yale. Arrangements are now being made for some additional races for the Freshmen, the dates of which will be announced later.
