EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- If I may judge anything from the showing which the freshman eleven has made in its match games so far this season, the chances for final victory with Yale '92, are not the brightest imaginable. The members of the freshman class would have no cause for complaint if it were perfectly sure that the men on the team are the best the class has. They are, doubtless the best men of those who are trying for the team, but there are some men training for the crew who have come here with wellestablished reputations as football players. I would in no way deprecate the necessity of early training for the freshman crew, but it seems to me that the class has a perfect right to ask that all its energy at present be devoted to football. The crew has a long time yet in which to train, while that of the eleven is daily growing shorter. Now that the class races are over, it would seem that the football men on the crews should devote their attention to football. Unless this is done, the chances of the team for following the example set by Ninety-one at New Haven last fall, will be much diminished.
