Courtney and Cornell Rowing By Charles V. P. Young Published by the Cayuga Press

Postpaid $1.00 m Cloth

A good looking book that will interest any prep school boy in Cornell and Ithaca. It will awaken in the alumnus dreams of past grandeur and future conquest.

A few sentences of commendation:

"Traditions. . . are too rare to be allowed to disappear. . . You have done a real service in writing these pages."

—Livingston Farrand

"It is fortunate indeed that this book has beeti written by one personally conversant with the facts and able to obtain the earlier history from actual participation." —Frank Irvine

"Notable because it is chock full of information on rowing in general." —Boston Transcript

The Publisher is willing to let the remainder of this edition go at a low figure to close out. This book is invaluable to the person who is interested in the history of rowing, and of Cornell rowing in particular. Anyone that pretends to being posted on rowing has to have one. The record of Cornell races is the only accurate record in existence.

CAYUGA PRESS Ithaca, N.Y. I I Enclosed is a check for $1.00 for a copy of c'Courtney and Cornell Rowing." I I Please send me a copy of "Courtney and Cornell Rowing" with the understanding that I will send check for $1.00 within five days or return the book.
