The Rec0rd-The Record Cup-Yale and
 Harvard Freshnen-Harvard, sVar-
 sity Stroke Next Year.
 The Yaless Record is delayed in it's Christi mas issue because of the pressing business of the New York firm which furnishes the illus- trations. The issue is expected to be here so that the papers can be distributed before the students leave New Haven.
 Seniors and Juniors may learn the result of their examinations at the office of the dean on Thursday from two o'clock till four.
 The Yale Record cup has been awarded to Captain Gill. The Weekly Sport in com The final contests which, ac- eording to the original intentions, were to determine the award were daily postponed on account of lack of favorable opportunity until it was too late to hold them. The award was therefore left by the donors to Walter Camp as they wished the matter de- cided without further delay. The result is without doubt the same as if the final con. tests had taken place, for Gill would have taken first place in running owing to the weight handicap, while his passing, kicking and rushing would have placed him at the head. Nor is it by any means to be regret ted that the cup has gone to man who has done SO much to further the interests of the game at Yale and who was heart and soul so ably recall to his mind his first year of defeat 1t will also show to him the appreciation of his own earnest efforts by the University.
 George, Princeton's center rush who broke ligament in his ankle in the Yale game at BerkeIy Oval is now able to be about without difficulty.
 There are now good prospects for race between Harvard and Yale freshman crews next June. The Harvard freshmen have been rowing on Charles river until few days ago when they began work in the gymnasium. Captain Herrick of the Varsity crew will probably pay considerable attention to them in the spring. So far they have been coach- ed by W. Alexander. Yale freshmen have not yet showed any very fine material for the boat, but that is generally the result of the fall regatta. The candidates will begin hard work right after vacation and with the attsn- tion of Captain Allen of the Varsity crew 1t is hoped to turn out good crew for the class of '9S.
 Next June the Harvard Varsity crew will row an entirely different stroke from what 1t has for the last few years. Captain Husick has been in England and learned the prime features of the Cambridge stroke. He does AAoo AhsoAu ~ AuuoW tuo 0uHllsu btEOA0 tO the letter, but will use a combination of the Storrow and Cambridge stroke. A quick catch, slow slide at the end and fast recover, together with good deal of swing to the body, will be the characteristics of tho stroke in fact, very similar to the Yale stroke. Yale will use the same Bob Cook stroke that has won so many races for Yale. It is very likely that "Bob" will have few new points worked up for the crew to teach them when he visits them this spring at the Easter vaoa- tion.
 Prof. F. R. Honey, instructor in drawing at the Sheffield Scientific school, has forbid- den Henry A. Carpenter, minor, to sell in- struments to members of the freshman class. Carpenters father is connected with a con. oern manufacturing drawing instruments in Philadelphia and he has sold about $70O worth to the students at less rate than they could be purchased here. The students like it but Prof. Honey wishes them to buy their instruments of Roeesler
