The permission to build a rowing tank in the old gymnasium, which the rowing authorities have been so long working for. has at last been granted. The executive committee is pushing the work as fast as it is possible. Building plans are being prepared and masons have already given estimates of the cost of the stone-work. Although everything will be done to hasten the completion of the tank, on account of the great changes which the old gymnasium will have to undergo, it will necessarily be some time before the crew can commence working regularly in it. It is hoped, however, that everything will be in readiness by Jan. 1st.
