Notes.
The annual fall races of the Yale boat
club took place Saturday afternoon at
Lake Whitney and proved very successful.
The attendance was much larger than any
at Lake Salstonstal for many years at
similar occurrences. 1t was the first time
that colleges races had ever been rowed at
Lake Whitney.
The first event was the single scull race.
The entries were A. w. Treadwell, 81,
T. Q. Chatfeld, 'S3, and B. Hodge, 49,
The race was taken by Hodge in 6
minutes and IS seconds, with Treadwell
second in 7:O5 and Chatfeld third.
| By winning the race Hodge will hold the
new trophy for the coming year, which
was presented to the Durham boat club
| last year by General George H. Ford of
| this city.
The next event was the one looked for
ward to with the most interest; it was the
race between the academic and Shelf.
freshmen, and each crew was literally sup
ported by it's followers from the different
departments For the first time in many
years the Shelf men proved superior to
| their academic brethren, winning by about
| a length and quarter in minutes and .
| seconds.
The last event was the eight-oared shell
race between '92 and 1913 and was the most
exciting race of the day. The two crews
were very evenly matched and there was
considerable money up on the result OF the
race. Ninety-two was the favorite, but an
oarlock broke and '93 pulled quick stroke
that gave her the victory by about two
| lengths.
The time of '93 was 4:5S and that of '92
was AL. Both crews rowed in splendid
form and finished in good shape.

Captain Rhodes of Yale and Captain Po

: Regarding the so-called wonderful worl

should be said that the track on which h

J.. is down hill and has before shown fine rec
v ords which couldn't be equaled on leve
. stretch. Nine and one-half seconds TO
one hundred yards is to say that Carey cal
give Sheriff. five yards handicap and bea
t him which few will believe,
q The game Saturday between the Val
and Orange Athletic teams was fine AM
exciting exhibition of football playing !
: seemed quite like deciding championship
| game with it's five thousand or moro en-
. thusiastic spectators.
= The Orange men appeared slightly heavi
. er than their opponents, but the Yale rus
line seemed perfectly capable of holdin
:, them and getting through. The characte
= of their play is to rush the ball ahead b
% short rushes right through the line, an
:, very little kicking is employed, while as
rule the blocking around the ends is yer
good thus giving the backs a good chanc
for gaining ground. Yale won by til
l. score of 10 to 0, but only after fighting
hard battle against veteran college player
80 mostly.
