At a meeting held in New York on December 27, 1895, it was decided that a quadrangular race should be rowed between crews representing Cornell, Columbia, Pennsylvania and Harvard. The race will take place next June, the exact place and date to be mutually agreed upon later.

This agreement was brought about by Cornell, for she, having made arrangements to row one race with Columbia and Pennsylvania, and another with Harvard, proposed that the two races be made into one quadrangular contest. The Springfield and Poughkeepsie courses have been considered, but no definite settlement has as yet been reached as to where the race will be rowed.

Mr. G. L. Rieves of Columbia and also of Cambridge, Engliand, has consented to act as referee.
