SINGLE SCULLING.

Attempts have been made in the last few years to boom single sculling at Harvard. A cup has been offered to the best sculler in college and the race is more sharply contested every year. It seems strange that so manly and health-giving an exercise as single sculling, encouraged by all the boating men of the college, has never been encouraged by the gymnasium authorities. Among the apparatus at the gymnasium there is nothing that resembles single sculling in the least. There are certainly more scullers than bicyclists in college, yet we have two or three practice wheels. Why cannot a hydraulic machine for sculling be put in for those who wish to take their exercise in this way.
