YALE VARSITY NON TO-DAY
Turned Tables on Freshmen and
 Beat Them a Length.

The Harvard Varsity Men Were Also
 Out To-Day-The Men Practiced at
 "a 30 Stroke, But the Work Was Not
 Satisfactory to the Coaches.
 Gales Ferry, Conn, June 6.-The Yale varsity eight to-day turned the tables on the freshman eight and in a mile and quarter race easily defeated them by over a length. The varsity men, after their light practice of yes terday afternoon were much fresher than when they raced the freshmen yesterday morning and showed very good form. No time was taken.
 The varsity eight and four-oared ap- peared on the river at 9:15~ and slowly rowed up stream and when the var sity crews had arrived at a point about a quarter of 8 mile above the quarters the freshmen four and eight caught up with the launch. The rour-oar crews were started first, the freshmen being given a length of clear water over the varsity four. They maintained this lead throughout.
 The freshmen eight and the varsity eight started. on even terms and from the start the varsity showed their su- periority, gradually pulling away until at a point opposite the crews quarters there was length of open water be- tween the boats. The form shown by the varsity greatly encouraged the coaches.

Red Top, Gales Ferry, June 6.-The Harvard varsity men went out this morning for four miles of good work in mile stretches on the river All the men were dn good condition after their first night at Red Top, but the travel of yesterday had tired them so that they were somewh at logy in their rowing. Coach Higginson paid all attention to the slow recover, and Stroke McGrew had to keep the men from rushing forward. The work was unsatisfactory, however, as the men were slow in getting their power ap- piled and the boat stopped badly be- tween strokes. Most of the work was done at a 30 stroke, but on the way back to the float 1t went up to a 32. .,
 The four-oar went out in the same order as yesterday. Stroke Dillingham; has been elected captain of the four.
 IA new set of oars for the varsity eight arrived from Harlem to-day.

 D. O. KNIGHTS OF KHORASSAN- Hark ye, To the Tyros! Hear ye the Arabs blow their trumpets,. Form ye the caravani..-and so on. The D. O. Knights of Khorassan were very much in evidence last night. and judging from the sounds that issued from El Yena- math temple there was decidedly some thing else doing besides the calmly leading of canels across the Desert of Arizona" First the eligibles were led about the streets with the noble Arab chiefs al the ends of the ropes that were attached to q score of aspiring travel CTS of the desert. and if the aspirants didn't hold the rope tight enough it meant trouble to those led. Then to the temple where the sands were hot and the water scarce-yes. more than scarce. The directions were: "Remem- Der. we snow TO quarters, but all tyres will have to show forty to get in. Eat, drink and be leary, for tomorrow you lie. Turn your faces inside out and warble to the five winds. for the benefit of all tyros, this dictum dictorum tar rarahrum ''-whatever that means. Any way they had q splendid time and tn new members will be busy" all day to- day and maybe tomorrow.
