Al Maui has credit for an error in the

his calls on plays should be unquestioned
by the men. In the seventh inning Kelley
put up high fly that dropped right at
Maui. The captain called for Joyce to take
it. AS matter of fact, any one of the
six men on the diamond could have taken
it with equal ease, but Joyce is unusually
sure on high flies and it was good judgment
for Cartwright to choose him. Maui either
did not hear the call or refused to obey it,
for he persisted in squaring for the catch,
and as Joyce had kept on, in obedience to
tho direction, there was a collision, and
the ball dropped from Maul's hands. When

RESULT OF TEE TRIANGULAR RACE
Pennsylvania and Cornell Beaten

THEY MET WITH MISHAPS

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
NEW LONDON, June "a, 1895.
The first day of the last week OF train
ing has passed quietly. There was plenty
of work, however, to keep the oarsmen
well occupied. The most Interesting event
of the whole day was a call by the Yale
freshmen upon their cousins at Red Top.
This is without precedent. The 'varsities
always exchanged visits annually. And this
year the reception given by Harvard was
an unusually cordial one. The whole man
ner of conducting the rowing this year
without secrecy or spying by either uni
versity has tended toward a new era OF
good feeling on the Thames. The men
have met several times at the village
church at Gales Ferry and also In town.
When the state of affairs is considered,
that has been brought about by the famous
the oarsmen is to be hailed as an indica-
ton of a happy solution of the difficulties
that exist especially as Harvard has taken
the initiative steps.
Plans for the Race.
All arrangements for the race were about
completed this morning. The steam yacht
Dora was chartered to carry the officials.
and besides the press boat will be the only
craft that follows the crews. The officials
will be G. L. REEVES of Boston, referee;
for Yale, Robert J. Cook, judge, and Geo.
Adee, tmekeeper; for Harvard, Mr.. Wat
son, judge. and BILLY" Brooks, timekeeper.
The protest that was entered against Capt.
Marsh of the Yale freshmen has been with
drawn. Columbia arrived this evening and
is now settled at Gales Ferry next the
Yale quarters, on the hill Tomorrow will
offer the first chance Of comparing the
three freshmen crews. Now 1t looks as If
the Harvard freshmen were going to win.
but the Yale youngsters have taken
big brace in their work, owing to Bob
Cooks vigorous coaching.
The Days Work.
The work of both crews was heavy today,
but no time rows were taken. Harvard did
about two miles in the longest stretch,
but the time could not be obtained. They
are showing steady Improvement. Their
blade work IS better and they get more
work in beyond the pin, where it is most
effeo tive. The finish is not as clean as it
might be, but they did not splash any the
whole time In the Yale boat the work
done was of the usual high grade, hut
they did not have the dash of their rivals,
still the shell Topped out well. Harvard
rowed a stroke varying from 80 to So per
minute, while Yale kept hers down 20 50
and &c. Holster, No. Z. in Harvard's boat,
who had chill yesterday, has entirely re-
covered and rowed as usual. The rest of
the men are in good condition.
