Since the disappearance of the new launch "Red Top" in the Cape Cod Bay it has been decided to order another speed launch to take the place of the ill-fated craft intended for the use of Coach E. J. Brown '96, head coach of the Harvard University crew squad.

Although arrangements for the new speed boat have not as yet been completed it probably will be similar to "Red Top" and will be approximately 27-feet long. The order will be sent to Greenport, Long Island next week.

Unfortunately there will not be time enough for the completion of the boat this spring and the "John Harvard", which was to be scrapped on the arrival of the new launch will see another season's service on the Charles River.
