The Yale crew will go to their quarters at New Haven on Saturday, June 14, a few days before the Harvard crew. Spectators will be provided with better accommodations for the race than is usual; the observation train will be somewhat longer; there will be 34 cars, with room for 2500 persons. All the seats in thirteen cars have already been sold.

Yale has been anxious to take early steps towards a renewal of the old contract or towards getting a new one, but the Harvard boating authorities have held back because the University Treasurer will not allow the manager of the crew to speculate with the crew's funds.
