YALE-HARvARD CREWS.
eIPs Eight Are Chosen While tho Crimson
Makeup is Still Uncertain.

The Yale crew is forging steadily
ahead, and has already reached a con-
dition greatly gratifying to the Eli
coachers.
1t seems a bit strange to old-time
Yale men never to hear the voice of
Bob" Cook this year. and the absence
Of the veteran will be even more no.
ticeable when the crew gets to New
London, where Cook has always been
a constant companion. But the change
is generally approved by Yale men, for
while the utmost gratitude is felt for
the wonderful work that Cook did for
successive Yale Fights for years, at
the same time there is a belief that in
the last few years Cook and the Yale
crews had wandered away after strange
rowing gods, and hence the successive
defeats at the hands of Cornell. This
year DR.. Gallaudet is teaching the old
time Cook stroke, that fierce catch and
powerful swing that spelled despair to
the Harvard oarsmen for many a long
year. Gallaudet was brought up to
row this stroke to perfection, and he is
teaching it beautifully to apt pupils. ,
The Yale boat this year is heavier
than usual, in fact croakers declare is
Yale 81 crew, which was too heavy,
and which met disaster at the hands of
the crimson. But this season the
weight in the Yale boat is so evenly
distributed that the shell glides for
ward on an even keel The men are
likely set with a firm catch on the
water, magnificent sweep and a pow
erful leg drive. Seven out of the eight
men were members of the famous Yale
freshman crew of two years ago and
they row beautifully together.
Ned" Storrow, Harvard's head
rowing coach, has not brought his crew
as yet to the stage that his New Haven
rivals have reached. The eight men
are not yet chosen. The candidates
have been sifted down to 1e in number.
but it viii be a fortnight yet before
the eight are finally picked. The crew
will go to New London about June 10,
and it is a well-known fact that Har-
ward crews generally improve more
rapidly on the Thames than their Yale
brethren. At the same time, there is
a big gap to be overcome before the
crimson oarsmen can be considered as
having even chances with the Yale
crew. Mr.. Storrow comes of a rowing
family, his elder brother Jim" Stor-
row, 'S5, having been the last captain
of winning Harvard crew, save Nell
son Perkins, in 81. The present coach
has the confidence Of his men and the
loyal support of the undergraduates

) in. F. S. Hadlock, who is entered in
the high hurdles, was at Worcester last
year. He has a record of Is 2-5s. He is
in fine condition. D. T. Snow, who
competed at Worcester last year, is in
fine condition and may win a place in
the quarter. We have been fortunate
enough to secure John Graham of the
3. A. A. for coach. He will remain
with us until after the Worcester meet
We ought to have the best athletic
team we ever had. We have good ma
terial."
Capt. Archer L. Grover, of the Uni
versity of Maine team, is the best man
in the team which will represent that
institution. The team is trained by D.
F. O'Brien of North Brookfeld, who
writes The Spy as follows: Our team
for Worcester will consist of six men.
and we shall be satisfied if we score.
Our best and surest point winner is
Capt. Grover. His events are the ham
mer, shot and discus. His best per-
fOrmances have been lis in the discus,
81 feet 1 in. in the shot. and 10 feet
with the hammer. He weighs 1872
pounds, and has a record of 10 LIS for
the 100 yard DASH He is at present
working for the high hurdles. which he

Rooney by easily winning the two hun
bred and twenty yards dash. In the
mile and half mile runs, Capt. Bray
did not exert himself being sure of
first place in each event. The same
was true of Potter, 1901, in the hur-
dies, though Harmon, 1902, and Put-
ney, 1900, gave him close finishes. In
the four hundred and forty yards dash,
Park, 1901, and Jacket, 1902, showed up
especially well, the former winning the
race in the time of 81 seconds
In the weight events the freshmen
showed up best, Johnson and Lawrence
winning first and second places respec-
lively in the shot put, while TOwne won
second in the hammer throw and third
in the discus throw. OF the old men
those who showed the most improve
ment over last years work in the field
events were Cullinan 1901 in the ham
mer throw, SquireS 1900 in the pole
vault, and Wood 1901 in the broad
jump. Those who won first and sec
ond places were sent to the training
table, and will probably be taken to
Albany, next Saturday, for the meet
with Union.
Herbert C. Collar, captain of Dart
mouth athletic team, writes concern
ing the chances of his team: 1.-THE late
season and consequent poor condition
of the track has reflected itself in the
condition of the men. At present about
30 men are in training, including most
of last years men, and several fresh
men. Cakes, '99, who took second in the
hammer throw last year, is not train
ing this year. Chase, '99, captain of
last years team, is in weak condition
this year owing to a severe attack of in
digestion, and will hardly be able to
repeat the trick of winning the broad
jump. The class of 'O2 brought in very
little available material for the track
team, consequently Dartmouth's pros
| poets for being successful May 20 are
very slight. Last year we lost by
small margin and individually we are
weaker this year than ever before.
"In my opinion, Williams stands the
best show of winning this year, with
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
well up in the race. Dartmouth will put
up at the Bay State house, as in former
years, and will be represented by a
team of 20 men. Lack of interest In the
track team throughout the college gives
us limited funds for carrying on the
team. Probably 25 rooters will be on
hand to cheer Dartmcuth's tagging
hopes"
| ID. C. Hall, captain of Brown athletic
team, evidently has little hopes of his
team. He writes: Brown will go to
Worcester with hopes lower than last
year. All we expect to do is to keep up
our old record. Our old team is at pres
ent in a very crippled condition" Mr..
Hall writes that Bray Of Williams and
Garrett of M. I. T. are the men he looks
to to score in the distance events on the
track.
Edward r. Godfrey, captain of Bow
doin athletic team, writes The Spy as
| follows: 1.-THE following men ought to
be point winners, III. J. Hunt, an old
| Maine interscholastic star in the dashes:
H. H. Cloudman, in the dashes and
| broad jump; R. e. Edwards in the low
| hurdles He was at Worcester last
| year. He has a record of 26 2-5 in the
low hurdles. w. j.. Clark and J. E.

liams is not a good one. Concerning
the work they did in the class games,
the school paper says:
The showing made in the track events
was very satisfactory, but in the field
events it was much poorer than was
expected. The feature of the meet was
the lowering of the college record for
the two-mile. The record which had
been held by Capt. Bray at 1854, was
broken by Little, 1900, and Lathrop,
1901, in a close and exciting race, which
was won by the former in the time of
1888 is. In the one hundred yards
dash, Rooney, 1901, unexpectedly beat
Patterson, 1900, running the race in the
excellent time of 10 LIS seconds. Pat
terson, however, turned the tables on

Hatch or French will be the other
member of the team. Hatch is a quar-
ter miller, and is good for 54s. French
is a two miller and has done close to IL
minutes in practice. The team Will
put up at the Bay State House. There
are at present some 30 men in training
for the Maine intercollegiate, which
takes place June 8 at Waterville. We
are putting forth every effort to win
that meet. Most of the candidates are
inexperienced and cannot be relied on
for consistent performances"
From Wesleyan comes the following
information regarding the athletes:
The track team has now gotten down
to earnest work, and Captain Billing
ton feels greatly encouraged at the
way the men are taking hold. Through
the winter the team was handicapped,
because according to the new ruling OF
the faculty the sophomores and fresh
men were oDllged TO take the regular
gymnasium work.
There are but few old men. The
members of last years team who have
been out are Hurlbut, A. w. Davis,
Carey, Cline, c. Dodds and Gould. The
other candidates are Davenport and
Pearce from 1900; Adams, Bishop,
Clemens, Gordon, Rippere, Scheffer, W.
Terry from '01; Ackart, Anderson,
Bugbee, Cushman, Fisher, Hatch, Lit
tell, Meeker, Newell, A. ]. Scoield and
Walter from '02. Several of the new
men give promise of good running abil-
ity."

Fire Department Saved Two Tenement
Houses From Being Badly Damaged. 3

Good work by the Worcester fire de-
partment yesterday morning saved two
tenement houses from being badly
damaged. Hose was called to the
Consolidated Street Railway company's
block, Is School street, to extinguish
a fire in the tenement occupied by Mrs.

lighted cigar being left on parlor
table, igntng a table cover. The blaze
spread quickly to the curtains on the
windows and was in a fair way to set
ting the building on fire when the hose

About $50 damage was done. The fur
niture is insured through Tatman &
Park for $500.

son streets, brought the department to

street. owned by the Rodier heirs. A
defective stove pipe IN a tenement oc-
cupied by Alfred Roy started a blaze
in between the ceiling and floor on the
third story and got a good hold before
the department could get at it. About
$500 damage was done; insured through
the agency OF Washburn. Willis &

Opinions From Captains

Never since the first day the athletes
Of New England colleges met in ath-
letic competitions has there been such
interest as in the annual games which
will take place at the oval Saturday.
One reason for this is the unusual I'M
certainty which attends the games. Al
though several teams are known to

dition of the field and track in the dual
games with Union college Saturday, it
is impossible to draw a line on the
work OF Williams athletes. The best
standard to measure them by, is the
work they did at their spring games
over a week ago, and at that it must
be remembered that the track at VIII

Our weakest events are the bicycle
race, hammer throw and broad jump.
Men to enter these events are most
needed. There has been little done in
the low hurdles. In the high hurdles,
Hurlburt Corscaden and C. R. Dodds
have been doing good work, running
them within a second of the college
record. Gould, Davenport, Ackart and
Pike have been working at the shot,
hammer and discus.
Thus far we have had out practically
no broad jumpers, two or three high
jumpers and one pole vaulter. Hurl-
burt is getting into excellent form.
Others are intending to work up these
events but the time is short.
