with the Yale crew at Henley. 1t in
cludes the following statements: There
Is trouble yet with the first four, and
Beard and Rogers are particularly in
need Of coaching. Yale Is working
twice as hard as the other crews, but
the men maintain a splendid condition
and the best of spirits.
''Leander and New College are now
considered the Blues most formidable
rivals. Yale Is physically stronger
than either of them. 1t is believed here
that Yale's chances are even. The
oarsmen have repealed every unfavor-
able climatic influence and so far the
expedition has been fortunate in every
respect.
.sAll are glad that Yale is here and
| IL seems certain that the expedition will
bring about race with Oxford or Cam
bridge another season.
'Mr Cook has told me that the sltua-

be; that the crew Is improving daily
and getting a good racing stroke. He
adds. Our chances are fair but the
odds are naturally against Yale. :"
The statement that Yale race with
Oxford or Cambridge seems certain for
next year Is regarded as very signifi-
cant.
