The Freshman crew rowed two stretches yesterday afternoon, alternating with the 'Varsity. Glidden has been taken out of the boat, Howard moved from 6 to 4, and Tilton put in at 6. The crew will probably row in a shell today.

Graduate Manager N. W. Bingham has received the trophy won at the Boston College games. It has the monogram of Boston College in gold inside a wreath of myrtle on an antique oak background. Below this is a plate giving the place of competition, the names of the competitors and the times made. It will be placed in the Trophy Room tomorrow.

The order of the '98 Weld crew was shifted about yesterday. Dobyns who has been rowing 4 was put at stroke and Dubois, who has been stroking, changed to 7. Butler went from 7 to 3, Robinson from 3 to bow, Richards from bow to 2, and McBurney took Dobyns's place at 4. The entire order was: Stroke, Dobyns; 7, Du Bois; 6, Millard; 5, Wood; 4, McBurney; 3, Butler; 2, Richards; bow, Robinson. The change seem to have worked an improvement, as the crew was rowing much better than before.
