In response to the invitation published yesterday, a number of gentlemen met last evening, in Holyoke 35, to consider the advisability of forming a canoe club at Harvard. Among those present were many who take an active interest in the sport, and several gentlemen who were unable to attend were represented by proxy. The balloting for officers of the new club resulted as follows : Commodore. T. Dunham, '85 ; vice-commodore, P. L. Livingstone, '85 ; secretary-treasurer, A. G. Webster, '85. Messrs. T. L. Frothingham, '84, and Webster, '85, were constitute a committee on by-laws. It was voted that the club join the American Canoe Association. It was also decided that the initiation fee should be $3.00, with an annual assessment of $1.00, which amount covers the fees to be paid to the A. C. A. Another meeting will be held at the same room next Monday, at 7 P. M., for the transaction of further business. It is hoped that a large number may be present, and that no one who has any interest in this sport will fail to attend.
