ROWING.
mob Cook Inauguratcs n New system or Tank
Rowing nt Now Haven.


the arrangement Of the four big intercollc-
giate boat races to be rowed on the Hudson, at
Poughkecpsie. the details OF which were pub
lished In yesterdays SUS, caused great rejoicing
among college men. II is the general impression
that the races will attract tho greatest crowds
that have ever attended such events in this
country.
1t has been decided that all OF tho crews will
have boat houses and training quarters on the
Hudson. but Bob Cook still adheres to tho belief
that II Is better policy to keep tho Yale crew at
New Haven until about June 10, or ten days be-
fore the race with Harvard and Cornell. Cook
has already established new system OF rowing
in the tank, which enables the men to take at
least thirty strokes to the minute. whereas un.
der the old regime only half this number were
possible. At Harvard tank rowing is conducted
under the old principles and the candidates can
row only about fifteen strokes per minute.
Cooks new plan is n secret but those who arc
on the inside OF lales rowing affairs say that II
will he II wonderful help to the men when they
begin work on the waters Of New Haven harbor.
Cook will not be able to coach the crew day In
and day out for some time yet, but he has given
valuable instructions to Capt. Bailey.
Cornells sportsmanike dealings with Yale
and Harvard throughout the recent negotiations
have created a most favorable impression par
ticularly at Now Haven and Cambridge, the
corncred race is successful, there should be no
good reason for not renewing II. For 10 row

terday, and then shut her crew out for all time
would not be exactly Just. considering the many
concessions made by the lthacans."
