YALEs REASONS FOR LOSING THE RACE.
NEW LoNDos, June 26th.-The Yale oars
men, after the race. explained Yales dis
astrous defeat by saving that Yale was
ouuowed, and that Yale paid too much
attention to the inside of the boat, while
Harvard paid strict attention TO the stroke
outside the boat Certain it is that the re-
suit IS a great surprise to Yale, as she con-
sidered her crew sure winners. Many
prominent Yale men have freely expressed
the opinion that the result of this race will
break up the Cook and Louis Hull regime
1t is now stated that two days ago Cook
and Flanders had serious misuaderstand-
ing, and Cook language was SO strong that
it broke Flanders up 50 badly that tears
sprang to his eyes. The record of Yale and
Harvard series now stand Harvard 6, Yale
4. while the Yale crew of 1884 has the best
time record. The Captain of the Yale crew
declined to talZ about the race further than
to say it was fairly won.
