Six varsity and three or four lightweight crews will race together over the mile course this afternoon at 3:15 o'clock.

There have been some changes in the lineups as announced last week. Bill Row is out with poison Ivy and his place at stroke has been taken by Tom Talbot with Peirce replacing Talbot in Ranger Purdy's crew.
