The question of the crews going out of training as soon as the new athletic regulations are officially announced is being seriously discussed. It does not seem likely that there can be a Yale race, but Harvard will have to forfeit the race since she did not declined to row next June before Christmas. At any rate it does not seem likely that a crew trained exclusively for a four mile race can be got in condition by next June for a three-mile contest.
