after the exodus following commence

the good news from New London with
an enthusiasm that would do credit to
three times the number Early in the
afternoon men began to stroll TO the
square to watch for bulletins from 'he
windows of the Harvard Crimson.
When the result of the freshmen race
was learned, there was enough of d
crowd to make a good sized racket
After that, numbers and enthusiasm
grew steadily. The result of the four
cared brought more noise and more
people.
When later Doucette of foot ball
fame, rushed out, yelling that the
varsity had won, everybody yelled and
hugged his neighbor and swelled the
general pandemonium. Each one of the
eight had his three times three cheers,
then the four-oared, then the fresh
men and last and louder, Coach St r
row. After that, there We're more cheers
for things in general, and then the men
began to drift away.
Prof. Hollis of the athletic commit
tee, dropped into the Crimson office
later, and said it was 'all too good for
words" He added that the nine could
not lose at New York after this. It
has got to be a Harvard victory right

ment. This evening an exhibition of
fireworks was given on Holmes field

At the close of the freshmen race in

and was so pronounced that the referee

AS a result it was found that the New

1t transpired that those having con-

of the committee, received orders from
the government officials at Washington
to keep the draw closed between the

called to account The blunder
marred and possibly changed to some
extent the result of the freshman race.
Impartial observers. however, believe
that Yale could not have won the race
under any circumstances. The Har-
ward freshmen were pulling strongly

meagre Yale lead.

Harvard caught the water first and
jumped to a lead which was never
wrested from her. Yale splashed at the
first stroke and rowed far less easily
than Harvard. Before half a mile had
been rowed, it was evident that Har-
wards four substitutes would furnish
to the crimson eight in case of acci-
dent to the regular men, far better sup
port than the second men who would
supplement Yale's varsity.
In the half-mile the crimson had es-
tablished a lead of two lengths. The
crew was pulling smoothly, while
Yale's shell was noticeably jerky be-
tween strokes. Harvard cleared her
paddles in magnificent style, while Yale
seemed to halt and then nervously yank
them out. Shortly after passing the
first half mile, Harvard spurted and
added another length to her lead,

and the crimson boys resumed their
Yale annihilation pace, Two more
lengths came Harvard's way in short
order, and as the crews approached the
first mile flag, it was seen that, barring
accident, it was Harvard's race by a
wide margin.
When the battle was half finished,
Yale made her most desperate effort
with a lively squirt. Harvard, how
ever, was ready and met Yale's effort
with another. Yale succeeded, how
ever. in cutting down the lead of their
rivals nearly a length. At the mile,
therefore, Harvard was ahead by four
lengths.
Instead of continuing their good
work. however, the Yale men began to
indulge in vagaries, and the boat was

til al the mile and a half she had near
ly six lengths to the good. Here Yale
was rushing her slides temporarily, but
with commendable pluck and dash she
pulled herself together for a final spurt
and did well.
Harvard grew stronger and spurted
with vehemence. Yale tried TO meet it,
but her efforts were futile, and few
moments later the Harvard four had
crossed the line a winner by six
lengths and a fraction in 10 minutes, 81

Both fours rowed back to their quar-
