It was the intention of the Univer- sity Crew management to take the Uni- versity and Freshman Crews to New London for the Easter recess on ac- count of the rough water which has prevented good rowing on the Harbor for the last week or two, but the sudden cold wave and snow storm on Tuesday caused this idea to be abandoned. ‘The weather was so rough that it was thought best to let the men have a rest and vacation until next Monday. Should the weather become better, however, the men will probably be called back the last of this week. The stroke this year has_ been shortened a fraction from last year’s style. The men got to reaching so far forward on the catch that they fell badly out of line. To prevent this the stroke was shortened just enough so that the bodies swing in line through- out the stroke. Since the last writing no changes have been made in the order of the boat. The rough water has prevented any four-mile time trials. == i al Prof. Wheeler on Patriotism. The second lecture of the Phi Beta Knapp series was given last Monday night by Prof. Arthur M. Wheeler, who spoke on, “The Kind of Patriotism We Need.” He said that patriotism was ustially associated with war against a foreign country; but there was another, more important kind of patriotism, which was connected with peace. For while the former may be shown by fighting with foreign enemies, the latter kind may be displayed, with equal effect, by bravely opposing the internal dangers of the country. Among the evils which are constantly increasing in our country, are the tre- mendous influence of the money power in politics, and the continual strife be- tween the rich and those eager to be- come rich. In connection with Cuba, Prof. Wheeler said, our intervention was a distinct departure from the _ historical and traditional policy of the govern- ment. Since the founding of the govern- ment two parties have existed, one for aggrandizement and foreign conquest and the other for internal development. and organization. The former leads finally to destruction, while the latter is the key to unbroken prosperity. —__——_ooo—_____-——- Freshman Baseball.
