Dormitory rowing in preparation for the bumping races to be held later in the season will start this afternoon at 3.45 o'clock. Candidates for the various crews will report at the Weld and Newell boathouses respectively as follows: Weld boathouses--Claverly, Beck, Hampden, Fairfax, Randolph, Weld, Brentford, Ware, Dunster, Dana, Drayton; Newell boathouse--Thayer, Westmorly, Perkins, Russell, Mt. Auburn street, Bow street. In addition to these dormitories, any other dormitory which can get eight men together will be given a shell. Any individual man who does not live in a dormitory and wishes to row may report at either boathouse. Coach Brown will have charge of the crews rowing from the Weld and Coach Stephenson of the eights made up at the Newell. It is hoped that candidates will report in large numbers, as the coaching and experience is especially valuable for Freshmen. Any members of the upper classes who show sufficient promise may be taken up for the University squad next spring. Second eights will be made up wherever the numbers warrant so doing.
