ONE of the most important events of the week is the decision of the boat-club officers and the executive committee of the University in regard to the management of the spring races. We note with pleasure that they have determined to adhere rigorously to their part of the bargain with Mr. Blakey. In another column will be found an account of the meeting and the programme of the approaching races. It is to be hoped that the Union Boat-Club will consider favorably the plan proposed for the combination regatta between the sixes and also between the fours, as the entrance of this well-known rowing association into the race will create new interest in boating, and afford some incentive to row and train for the next two months, beside the customary pewter mug. If convenient to the Union, the first race will take place early in May, and the second will be rowed after an interval of two weeks, thus finishing all work on the river before the annuals begin.
