the race. The oarsmen are in the height
of their training. Their dieting forms one
Of the most picturesque and important fea-
lures Of their life in their quarters. Dur
ing the time they are at Gales Ferry the
oarsmen eat four meals a day
Here is the routine life and diet for a
college oarsman: He is awakened by the
rubbers at $40 o'clock. AS soon as he gets
out Of bed he has brisk rundown. He
eats breakfast at Z. His opening meal OF
the day includes oatmeal, shredded wheat,
dates, figs, eggs, steak, chops, stewed po-
tatoes, and plenty of toast. A college crew
slows away a heavy breakfast. A long
morning row comes in between the break
fast and dinner. which the crews get at
noon. This consists OF soup. spinach. roast
beef. chicken. mashed potatoes. asparagus.
and Ice cream. This is the principal meal
OF the day. After dinner the oarsmeD gen.
orally have an examination or two to take
in their studies. At o'clock they partake
of cold roast beef baked potatoes. and
toast Their afternoon row follows this
meal
When they return from this SPIN they
are taken in hand by the rubbers for brisk
massage treatment. At s o'c.ock the forth
meal takes place. 1t consists Of oatmeal,
shredded wheat. toast and oranges. The
oarsmen lounge around their quarters after
their late supper till about O'Clock. when
they take haIf-mile walk before re iriny.
There Is a precision and clock work regu-
larity about all their training habits which
is the most wholesome training poss ible
for an undergraduate. and unless he is

Another week of work on the Thames
has closed with Yale still unable to cover
the four-mile course in better than %
minutes 80 seconds, although three trials
have been made. Harvard has tried the
four-mile course only once, but has beaten
Yale's record by half a minute. The COM
ing week will see the final testing out of
the speed powers of both crews. The Har-
ward oarsmen hope to get their record
down half a minute better than at present
as they return to good physical condition.
II they are able to perform the feat they
will have the race as good as won. The
Yale men are eager to get their. boats on
an even bottom, to get the order of the
crew decided, and to do the four miles a
minute better than they have done since
they arrived. Unless they succeed this
week their chances for winning the race
will be slender.
In one respect the condition of the crews
is becoming clearer every day. The matte

would be the fastest mile of the kind ever
made.
Mr.. F. P. Van valkenburgh, Chairman

Wheelmen should not wait until their

once in regard to the same.
Wheelmen should bear in mind that three
of the twenty events which will make up
the four days racing programme OF the

plums carved out Of the SO. coo set aside for
prizes cannot fail to result in the gather
ing together at the exposition building OF
the largest and fastest aggregation of pro-
fessional and amateur racing men OF the
world.
At a recent meeting Of the Executive
Committee having charge of the national
meet It was decided to admit all L. A. W.
members to the morning and afternoon
races free of charge. In taking this step
the promoters Of the Milwaukee meet
make a concession never accorded mem
bers who attended previous national meets.
and the action is expected to meet with
great favor in the ranks Of the League.
Inasmuch as all the trial and semi-finals
of the most important events will be de-
cided during the four mornings and after
Moons of racing, League members will see
such racing as was never before served in
the West without the customary payment
of a half-dollar for admission. The pro-
motors of the Milwaukee meet are to be
COMMUNICATED on their extreme liberality
and it is to be hoped that many League
members will take advantage Of 1t.

NEW LONDON, Conn. June 1.-THE

be remarkably light for several days. The
trouble Of the Yale eight is that the. rain

their entire stay at Gales Ferry, combined
with too frequent time rows, have upset
the crew. Because OF Its weak condition
the varsity eight has not been sent on 4

another is tried. 1t is phenomenal for an
entire week to go past among the crews
without covering the course after they ar

fortunate. The only consolation the Yale
men have is that the Harvard oarsmen are
also in poor condition. Overstudy has worn
