The Make-Up of This Year's Racing Crew and What It Promises. WILLTAMS CoLLeoR, WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass, Juue 9, 1875, When, tn 1872, the handiul of athletic spirits in “Old Williams” discussed the propriety of tho college taking position inthe ranks of the in- stitutions that Were making rowing the occasion of @ grand annual reunion, the Faculty stood aghast, and many iriends hold up their hands in astonishment at the temerity thus displayed. Little did the former think that in three years they would encourage the pastime, or the latter imagine in less time they would ireely contribute toward defraying the expenses thus incurred. Such, however, Js the case, and now her students are becoming aggressive and shouldering the re- sponsibility as to the duties which the intercol- legiate regatta imposes with such a self-sacrificing spirit that the front ranks are open to her for aquatic hovors. Defeats her plucky men nave repeatedly expericncea, but each and every ove of these occurrences has proven @ positively healthy stimulus, until the nerve sie now exhibits demands and obtains general recog- nition, The addition of such men as Williams annually sends to the University race goes far to increase its dignity, and gives the event a stand- ing that multiplies many fold its Irlends and sup- porters. And the day 1s not far distant when the disadvantages under which she labored to pre will be held up as a marked example of the victory 900 | of stern resolve over @ combination of adverse circumstances. Her aquatic prowess has been won by pluck and downright earnestness. With @ tiny stream eighty feet wide, less than one mile long, anda straight stretch not one-Jourth ofa mile | In all the distance, she has bravely done her work. Once in @ while vhis tortuoug and insignificant water, honored with the name of the Hoosac River, adds variety to its many peculiarities by drying up, when, if boating practice is to be continued, miles must be gone over to reach acceptable water, I believe {tis on record that this freak of the Hoosac has caused Williams to frequently | freight her shell to Troy, a jaant of two hours or more by rail, in order that her representative men of the university have for the sport, and it tueir several essays. AGAIN TO THE FRONT. This year Williams again takes her stand and obtains the recognition her rowing record de- mands, Sne’s on the warpath.
