The Freshman Football Team Goes to Training TabIe-Seven ,vars1ty Men This Year are Freshmen- | Chances Never Better for a Victory 1 over Harvard-The Fall Regatta Takes Place TO.Day-'94 Probably Wins over '93-WM the Shelf. Heat the Academic Freshmen Again This Year2-AnOther Rogers
 for the Crew.
 r The freshman foot team has sent the following men to training table at 1090 Chapel street: Adee, Longacre, Coll, Hill, Pringle, Donaldson, Whitney, sefield, B. Thorne and Anchincloss. More men will be taken to the table later, as sufficient ability is shown. The freshman team will play the Heights of Brooklyn this Satur- day at the Yale field. As this is one of the first important games since the team has been regularly organized, the result is watched for with great interest. It is hoped that the freshman game between Yale and Harvard will not be the complete l walk-over it has been for the last few years. The Yale freshmen have not suc ceeded in winning game since 1881 when l they defeated Harvard by score of 10 to o. The freshmen last year were defeated only only IA to 4 There was ~ on on the team that played Harvard only | two Varsity players, Laurie Bliss, half back, and Lewis, center and guard, besides Polk, who played substitute end on the Varsity. This year the freshmen will have the following Varsity players: stillman, Dyer, Norton, Beard, Sanford, Messler and Hincker. With Sanford as center, Messler and Stillman guards, Beard and Hinckey | ends and Norton and Dyer as half backs, | there is the foundation of 8 magnificent | team, and it will be because of some un | expected accident, if the Yale freshmen do not win victory from their class this year. The game will be played about the last of next month, after the Varsity game on Thanksgiving. There may be a game ar ranged, too, with the Princeton freshmen l some time in November, dependent on the action of the Princeton faculty.
 The annual fall races are to be held at l Lake Whitney this afternoon at o'clock Owing to 8 lack of entries the single scull races will be omitted. The race between the junior and sophomore crews, as it is the first time they have met, promises to be an exciting one. The junior crew de- feated the crew of '92 last year very easi- ly, but this year is crippled by the loss of

Slade, Sutphen and Hodge are men who have done but very little rowing until this year, and are men that stood absolutely no chance of making the crew until the loss of many of the old men made the using of every available material necessary.
