The new steam launch built by Lawley & Son to succeed the "Frank Thomson" has been named the "John Harvard." The name has been given by the family of Mr. Thomson in deference to the sentiment of the students, which has been strongly in favor of having a "John Harvard" on the river since the sale of the old launch to Wisconsin University. A suitable plate will be prepared stating the original gift by Mr. Thomson and his family. This plate will be placed in the coach's box.
