University Lectures
 The university crew squad, which
 numbers about thirty men, is being
 coached by Dr. Gallaudet, who was as-
 sisted Saturday by F. A. Johnson 94.
 The crew rowed as follows: Stroke, J.
 D. Ireland 1900 S.; ', J. H. Neidecken
 1900; 6, F. w. Allen 1900; 5, J. W. Cross
 1900; f. R. P. Mint '99 S.; 3, w. E. s.
 Griswold 99; ?, H. P. Wickes 1900; bow,
 J. c. Greenleaf '99 s.
 The crew is still using the stationary
 seats. The squad takes outdoor runs
 every day and works in the gymnasium
 before taking the regular tank work.
 It is undecided who will assist pr. Gal
 laudet in coaching this week. The pros
 poets for a strong crew are unusually
 bright. The seven men of last years
 crew are all showing improved form, while w. E. S. Griswold '99 and J. c.
 Greenway 1900. both of whom rowed on
 the '97 university crew, and a number of the 1901 champion freshman crew are
 showing up very we'll. The crew will | probably have new cedsgr shell this year, made by Davies, the Harvard boat 1 builder.
 | The freshman crew squad has be
 cut down to about forty men. They are
 practicing daily on the same lines as the | university crew squad, under the coach- ing of R. M. Patterson 1900, assisted by Dr. Gallaudet and members of the
 university crew. The crew rowed Sat
 urday in the following order: Stroke, F. H. Phipps 1901 S.; z, E. J. Low 1902; G. H. S. Hooker 1902; 5, J. R. Swan 1902; f. F. s. Yarmouth 1901 s.; 8, F. s. Goodwin 1902; 2, R. A. Lincoln 1902;
 bow, T. N Troxell 1902.
 Of these men Phipps, Low, Goddard,
 Yarmouth and Troxell were members of last years St. Paurs school (Con- cord) crew, and Hooker and Swan pre- pared at Groton. The material gives good promise of developing a strong crew.
 There are now more than two hun dred men in training for the track team, and every day the number is be- ing increased. The work at present is very rudimentary, and is entirely de- voted to giving the men uniform style in running. The material is very prom ising, and the chances of a winning team this year are bright. Yale will not enter any of the indoor meets this year, as both Captain Fisher and Train CT Copeland believe that they do more harm than good. A number of individ- ual entries have, however been made for the Boston Athletic club games on February IS. Teams will be sent to Philadelphia on April 29 to compete in the relay races, which practically de-, eide the intercollegiate championship, being held under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania.
 The usual invitation games which have generally been held at Yale dur ing May, will probably not be held this year, but will give way to series of interclass games, which is an innova- ton at Yale, and is planned to stimu- late interest in track athletics in the university.
 Captain Fisher has appointed four lieutenants to assist him in the track work, each of whom has charge of the track men from his class. The three stewards, which have been appointed from the freshman class, will look out for the promising candidates in the " OtNf'st'AAA and Trainer Copeland.
 Candidates for the freshman nine have been called out for this afternoon 1 and will begin practice at once under 1 Captain deSaulles.
 Harry B. Jepson will give his next organ recital in Battell chapel at five ! o'clock this afternoon. The following | will be rendered: F. della Tombelle-Sonata Op. 42.
 1. Allegro.
 2. Andante.
 3. Toccata.
