NEW LONDON, July Livery train adds
to the hund reds of collegians in this city Not
for many years has there been such a feeling
of uncertainty on the eve of the great annual
struggle between the crimson and the blue.
Representatives of both colleges Loyalty stand
by their crews, but singularly the Columbia
men seem to back Harvard. Yale men ex-
pect that Harvard will try to outrow them
on the first mile and half and think the
crimson will lead the blue at that distance
by two lengths. Under such conditions Yale
feels sure of the race as she does not credit
Harvard with sufficient reserve strength to
hold the gait. On the other hand Captain
that with Yale once in his rear he can keep
her there. Bob Cook said tonight that
Yale crew was never in better physical con-
dition for four mile strain than this one.
Not a man, he said, is overturned. Stor-
row says practically the same of Harvard.
Nevertheless Harvard men are disturbed to-
night by painful rumors that Colony and
Penrose are weak from entertaining and
that one of them may be replaced in
the boat. It is true that the Harvards
have only practiced in spurts for several
days owing to their exhaustion from last
Saturdays contest. Storrow says his men
were little too fine on Saturday and that
Colony is all right again. Harvard sympa-
bluff to affect the betting or whether there
is really fire beneath the smoke. The crews
put on the finishing touches this evening for
to -morrow's struggle and received many
callers later, including not few of the gem
tier sex.

Special to the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
NEW LONDON, July 1.-The Yale, Harvard
and Columbia freshmen crews raced on the
Thames this morning. Harvard's freshmen
won the race by three lengths. The time
was: Harvard II :53 Columbia second, time
1910. Yale's boat was swamped in the first
half mile. Columbia was beaten by II Sec
onds. Last night considerable betting was
INDUCED in by the college men in he Crock
er House corridors. The betting against
favorite was at the rate of 2 to 1. The greater
part of the betting was done between Celum
bia and Yale Harvard seemed to be taken
little notice of.
On the drawing for positions Yale got the
east course, Harvard the west side and Col
umbia the middle. There was but little
choice of positions, but it was thought that
Yale had the best position as the current there
is the stronger. The Thames was a brilliant
sight this morning just before the shells took
their positions for the race. Many Doats
with flying colors had been accommodating
about the harbor since early morning. The
surface of the water was almost perfectly
smooth scarcely ripple disturbed the CLASSY
like bay. The tide just before the race was
running at about half ebb. The wind, what
little there was of it, came from the north
and blew directly down the course. Every
thing seemed to favor splendid race as
the boats took their positions. A more per-
feet day could not have been wished for. 1t
was few minutes before II o'clock when
the three crews the blue, the blue and white
and the crimson, arrived at the starting point.
A stake boat was found wanting, and before
the much needed article could be procured
ten minutes was wasted.
While the crews were making ready to
start wind, which was growing stronger
and which was making the water rougher
every minute, sprang up. At 11:22 the
word was given and the crews started
promptly. Columbia was the first to take
the water, with Harvard and Yale together
at the next instant. The crews were made
up as follows

The Yale launch, with the crew aboard,
steamed up to the referees boat after the
race and made request that the race be
rowed over again at some future date. Har-
wards captain refused to grant the request.
The Yale crew then formally challenged the
Harv ard freshmen to a two-mile race, to be
rowed tomorrow. Mr.. Mumford of the
Harvard crew said to the COURIER reporter
to-day that he was in favor of another race,
as he believed in giving Yale a chance. Mr..
Mumford said that he would do all in his
power to bring such race about.
To-day's race and the attending mishap is
the talk of the hundreds of visitors in town
tonight. The Yale men weep at their poor
luck and the Harvard freshmen are jubilant.
The Croker House tonight is filed with
college men from all over the country. Elk
element runs high and much money is
changing hands. It is thought that many
thousands of dollars will be put up on to-
morrow's race. The Harvard and Yale crews
are in fine condition, and if the Thames is in
good condition tomorrow one of the most
exciting races in the history of college boat
ing will take place. The trains on the Shore
Line road are bringing hundreds of people to
town. The hotels and private boarding
houses are already full to overlooking.
