We notice that the Advocate has taken up the question of providing the '88 crew with cups as mementos of the race they so gallantly won last summer. We think this proposal is all the more worthy of acceptance, as '88 was virtually thrown out of all chance of trying for the cups in the class races last May by the referee's refusal to allow her to replace her broken rudder. We think that the Boat Club ought to give a reward, be it ever so little, to the men who worked so earnestly to bring honor to their class and their college; and we are sure that the men themselves do not care, so long as they receive some token of appreciation from the college, whether their cups are silver inlaid with jewels, or pewter inlaid with, say, - Bass's Ale! By all means let the Boat Club look into the matter.
