We are very glad to hear that the old Harvard oarsmen, at present members of the Boston Athletic Club, have organized an eight oared crew. The mere fact that the graduates feel so much interest in the success of the 'Varsity crew as to organize an eight for the purpose of giving the 'Varsity practice, is a source of encouragement and an incentive to hard work. And the practical value of such a crew will, we hope, be great. The Athletic club crew is composed entirely of men who have rowed in the 'Varsity boat in the past few years, and it promises to give this years, 'Varsity plenty of hard practice. The coaching that the members of the graduate crew can give may be of considerable value.
We hope that the new crew may be a success and realize its expectation of making the prospects of the 'Varsity as bright as possible.
