THE COMING BIG RACE.

Latest From the Thames-Yaie,s Im-
Provement.
NEW LONDON, June 26.-It was cool on
the river to-day, but did not rain this
morning as was expected and the crews
were able to 60 on the water for a short
time. Neither did any hard work, how
ever, only INDUCING in short spurts. The
Harvard Varsity does not appear to be
making any improvement and is not in as
good shape as few days ago. The Har-
ward freshmen, however, seem to be forg-
ing ahead and are rowing much faster. 1t
now looks as If they would take second
place in the freshman race easily with the
Yale freshies first. The Yale Varsity
continues to improve in the minds of
good judges, although 1t is limited that
Rogers and Gsllaudet are not in the
best physical condition and are rather
overturned. The Yale boat is GER
tainly going faster, however, and
things are looking brighter for the
blue. Interest In the freshman race is
growing, and the contest is sure to be wit
messed by large crowd. It Is now limited
that the Yale freshmen may break the two
mile record for the Thames, but they do
not seem to have such strong hopes as the
Cornell freshmen did. Unless something
unforeseen OCCURS, however, they ars pretty
likely to come very close to the record.
This evening the Yale Varsity expected
to pull over the four mile course On time,
but for some unknown reason did not do
so, and both Yale and Harvard prscticed
only short spurts and starting. All of the
crews got out this evening for short time.
The weather has been clear all day, but to-
night 1t looks like rain.
