Yale Loses Captain Because of “Conditions

Charles N. Snowdon of Pittsburgh, Pa., has resigned as captain of the Yale ’varsity crew. Thomas B. Denegre of New Orleans has been chosen to succeed him. This announcement was made at a meeting of the Blue oarsmen. Snowdon’s resignation was due to his being ineligible to row in the Harvard regatta next June. As captain and No. 2 of the crew last year Snowdon devoted his afternoons to the oarsmen and did not put in sufficient time at his studies to graduate. He will complete his course about mid-year, and this will render him ineligible for the race in June with the Crimson crew. Denegree is a junior. He rowed bow last year.
