The report of the treasurer of the University Boat Club which is published in this morning's CRIMSON will be found interesting reading. The Boat Club has suffered much, like all the other organizations which had to do with the training table of last year, from the unfortunately careless management of what we still believe was an attempt in the right direction. The accounts of the training table have not yet been made public, but we hope that they may see the light before very long, and that the college may learn whether a similar scheme would be again feasible, or whether there are really insurmountable obstacles in the way of a successful training table. The CRIMSON does not believe that there are such obstacles, but no one can tell with certainty until the accounts are published. Meanwhile the athletic organizations are much embarrassed in making out their accounts, which with good reason they dislike to publish until they can show just why their expenses for food were so large last year.

The faculty of the University of Michigan is making strenuous efforts to prevent the use of printed notes in the Law Department. One student who furnished notes at six cents per lecture has been expelled, but as there are twenty or more stenographers in the class the printed notes continue to appear at the regular rates. The faculty, however, announces that they intend to suppress the practice if it takes all winter.
