FRESHMAN CREW CANDIDATES. Ninety in Number, but Light in Weight and Inexperienced. At the call of Captain Frederick W. Allen, of the University Crew, ninety members of the Freshman Class pre- sented themselves at the Gymnasium on Saturday, Jan. 14, to make a trial for the Freshman Crew. This number is a large one and bespeaks a good spirit in the Class, but there are less than a score of these who have ever had ex- perience in a boat. As a whole the squad is a light one, the average weight being about 158 pounds, with but one man over 180 pounds. After the candidates had registered their names and weights they were set at work in the tanks, each man getting a chance to show what he could do for Afterwards a short run was taken. Daily runs and a _ few minutes with the oar will be continued until the best material comes to the surface, when the squad will be re- duced to easily-handled proportions. Captain Allen believes that though raw and inexperienced now, he sees in the material the making of at least an aver- age crew. The names and weights of the men who reported follow: G. Abbott, 151; B. J. Phelps, 175; H. P. Rogers, 150; Bok Low; 186: Me P: Lancaster, 140; O. S. Ackley, 165; R. B. Dresser, 165; K. C, Reed, 150; F. T. Mason, 158; FP. H. Strong, 145; E. A.
