Before the next issue of the CRIMSON, three athletic contests will be held with Cornell at Ithaca. Today the baseball team plays the first of its two annual games with Cornell, and on Monday the University and Freshman crews race on Lake Cayuga. The chief interest centres in the contest between the two University crews, always a splendid race, well fought out from start to finish.

To be sure, the Cornell crew broke the record on the Henley course last Saturday in the race with the Harvard second crew, but none of the men are oarsmen of much experience in a university boat.

Combine this advantage in experience with superior weight, and the result should be a victory for Harvard.
