Four sets of eight-oared sweeps are being built for the Newell and Weld boat clubs, by J. F. Donahue, who made the oars for the University crew last year. An eight-oared shell for the Weld boat club, and a light pair oar for the University boat club are being made by H. W. Davy of Cambridge.

Although the equipment now on hand is not sufficient for the needs of the men, this defect will be remedied before rowing begins.
