At a meeting of the freshman class yesterday, Manager Morgan read the following report about the money collected for the crew:
Subscriptions, $1,342 25
From Glee Club concerts, 50 00
Money left over from baseball
band, 100
Total, $1,393 25
Amount paid out for the support of the crew up to date, $1,275 20
Amount remaining in hands
of the Manager, $118 05
Captain Perkins then addressed the class, saying that it was a rule of the graduate treasurer not to let a crew go to New London unless there was money enough on hand to pay all expenses and that as $1,200 had to be collected before the crew could leave Cambridge, he advised all the men present to pay up what they could and to go around among their friends and get them to pay up also. He added that the crew was a good one and had a good chance of winning the race and that it would be an everlasting disgrace to '94 as well as to the college to have the crew crawl from the race on account of not having enough money to go to New London.
