Fights from the two colleges have met annually

water. They first came together as far back
1882 when they competed with crews from other
colleges in tours and skies Yale and Harvard first
met in Fights at Springfield in '76. and Yale was a
winner in 22.02. defeating Harvard by 81 seconds

From midnight on during the early morning

every few minutes racing car would dash up
and take the allotted position before the line In
front of the starting place by $3.50 a. m at least
two thousand enthusiasts gathered TO watch the
start. many being scattered along the Berlin
road. The first few racers left in the twilight
before the break Of day. and were almost imme-
diately lost to view. Later, when the bright sun
shine appeared. the autocars left with such
speed that they were enveloped in a cloud OF
dust after covering two hundred yards the dust
resembling nothing much as the smoke Of an
express engine. The racing cars were mere ma
chimes OF iron and steel, and pretence was
made TO secure comfort for the drivers or en-
gtneers They carried little or nothing except
spare tires and cans of petroleum. The arrange
ments were carried out like clOckwOrk There
were about thirty persons who had entered who
did not start. among them the American artist
Dannat. Hearty cheers ', ere given as the auto
mobiles made their departure. There was only
one female competitor, handsome French
woman named Cast. who was attired in a smart

find the tension is terrible. My car ought TO %

stand a fair chance in the race but 1 shall not
get the best speed out Of it. as I have not had

do my best, and win If possible"
