Americans then rowed to the minute bar

smoothly, but there was not so much life

all we'll. except that Brown and Laugford
were slightly indlsposed. hi, not enough so

to ovcrtrain any member Of the Yale crew.
Bob Cook continues hammcring at the ne
cessity for a quick, hard catch. and the
new oars are expected to help in this re-
spcct.

the Americans.

Trinity Hal was out this morning and
went 10 Hhmbledon lock and back in short
stretches. They. are working harder than
the other English crews. The English take
I. brisk run across the held, after rowing,
IN order to Timber IN, but the Yale oars
men only have Il rundown and then dress.

This was beautiful afternoon, bu. rath-

than had been allotted them. \ very good
comparison was obtained when Trinity Hall
raced It's second crew against the FIRST, In
the iirst half the second crew beat the first
crew by length. In the second half the
second crew also beat the nrst By u
length.
Large crowds were In attendance. giving
to the river and its banks all the appear
ancc of regatta day. New College was
closely watched by the assembled throncs
during its practice work. The crew did
the first half of the course in 3;2S, rowing
over tho entire course IN T:ti. the stroke
members were very much exhausted Lee
ander did the half course In S:2s, the whole
thirty-six stroke, and the crew MAS
greatly exhausted in consequence. Gold
and Nickalls, especially. suffered from The

At the start the rudder rope caught unaer
the aluminium I'm. which had been nN"d on
the boat at an angle of 9j deg, in the place
of the old wooden lin.
The new lin was bent to an angie q
" degrees before the rope could be freed.
This neccssitated keeping the rudder hard
apcrt during, the afternoon. on this ae-
these circumstances the performance Of
the Yale men was considered very Good.
Tho boys went in Immediately after nm
ishing their practice work and enjoyed a
tea at Foys during the balance OF the
afternoon. The Yale men have no definite
plans for tomorrow They probably Will
do the adjacent country on bicycles.
At meeting of the, stewards this after;
moor 1t was decided to have the trial
heats on Monday II the De Hoop Club
does not come in, and If Eton is scratched,
both OF which events are among the pos
sibilities.
The grand stand opposite the piers Is
nearly finished brightly dressed crowds
watching the workmen or the crews at
their practice. All of the members OF the
various crews are well except Clarke, who
is slightly ILL., II Is nothing serious, how
ever. Bob Cook this afternoon said he
was satisfied with the work OF the Yale
men this afternoon. inasmuch as Yale aid
half the course in practically the same
time as the othcrs-better in fact. IL the
bent fin is taken into consideration.
