M|DD|ES' CREW
Old Eli Wins From Embryo
Sailors.
RACE is HOTLY CONTESTED
Blue Distances Tired Naval Cadets by
Only Three-Quarters Of
Length
RACE is H0TLY CONTESTED

ANNAPOLIS, May by a splendid
squirt in the last quarter OF a mile,
Yale's second crew won from the Mid
shipmen over the two-mile course ON
the Severn yesterday afternoon. 1t was
anybody's race from the start until the
end the two crews alternating in the
lead several times. The time Of the Yale
crew was 10 minutes and 50 seconds. the
navy crossing the line a scant three
quarters OF a length behind.
A high wind and rough water made IL
necessary to postpone the race from the
scheduled time, 2;30 p. m, and IT was
not until nearly o'clock that the Yale
crew pulled out from the boathouse, to
be quickly followed by the Navy. Coach
Adams, of Yale. and GlendOn. Of An
napolis. decided 10 try the outside"
course.
Middies Were Quicker.
The Annapolis crew was a trifle the
quicker in the start. and picked up a
quarter OF a length in the first few
strokes. The Yale boat quickly cut
down this lead however, and at the
half mile had turned the tables. Both
crews quickly .tt.ed down to steady
swing, rowing tyJenty-nine and thirty
10 the minute, until the mile and a half
point was reached.
Although the Navy had abandoned
their quick recovery of last year, and
slowed their slides. coming aft in rluch
the same manner as the Yale crew,
there was marked difference in the
styles of rowing OF the two boats. A
distinct hang just before the catch was
in marked contrast TO the quick, firm
catch of the Yale Oarsmen. who an
chored their blades with a hard drive

At the mile the crews were rowing

light The Nays stroke was increased
a point or two and at the mile and a
half point the Alidshipmen had opened
up half q. length on the Yale boat.
They strained every nerve 20 keep this
lead. but it soon became apparent that
they had sprung their bolt too SOON
Blagden, the Yale stroke, slowly increas-
ed his pace, and well backed up by the
entire crew. closed up quickly. 1t was a
well-timed squirt and carried the wearers
of the blue steadily ahead until they
reached the finish line three-quarters OF
a length in the lead The Midshipmen
were badly pumped at the end OF the
race, but stuck pIuczily at their work
Owing to the darkness the spectators
we're unable to tell who had won until

result.

Fans of the Sunday School Athletic
Association turned out with the expec'
tation of seeing one OF the weak class
of baseball teams beaten by one OF the
strong in a game which would all point
toward the strong team yesterday at
ternoon on the Mount Pleasant grounds
of the Sunday School athletic Associa-
ton, when the Mount Vernons succeed
ed In making two TALES against the
Fourth Presbyterians' nineteen.
But the fans were very much surpris-
ed to see the game the weaker team put
up for the first four innings, and were
all loud in their praises OF the boys who
could play such ball when they wanted
to.
The first four innings Of the game
were well played, clean feldedt and not
an error was made, and was all any
baseball game. After the fourth the
Mount Pleasant boys seemed to get
careless. errors began TO show up plenti-
fully, and the fielding on their part be-
gan to look a little muddy.
Field. pitcher for the Methodists. was
given beautiful support up TO the fourth
but then went TO pieces. His loss OF
nerve seemed to be infectious. and II
soon began to be evident that the other
players were not putting up the game
they could.
Anderson, the Methodist third base
man, played well. accepting five chances
and losing two on account OF being tot
sure. One of the chances accepted was
Bielaskis Aard-hit grOunder. which was
caught in lis left hand with no glove
on, and was quite sensational.

A Midnight Serenade

W. H. Hadey has been since last
winter indebted to DR.. Mccoy for the
part he took in amputating one of his
neither limbs in practical joke which
the doctor is so fond of playing on his
indulgent friends. To square this OBJ
legation, and at the same time have
some fun at the doctors expense, he
had the report circulated that DR.. Nc
Coy had brought wife back from the
east and had taken her from the night
train to the hospital. Enlisting the
help of such youthful and fun-loving
spirits at DR.. Hoxsey, L. J. Nelson,
Paul Lachmund, Jack Smith, E. D.
Gates, Emery Ross, John Tholin and a
number of others, with an accompani-
ment of smaller boys, all armed and
equipped with such instruments of tor
ture as make ear piercing noise and
nerve wracking sound, they proceeded
to the hospital last Saturday night un-
der the guidance of Drum Major Ross
and serenaded the doctor and his
bride. The music was more noticeable
for volume and discord than harmony.
An anvil chorus with trombone accom-
paniments played on old tin boilers
would give one an idea of the serenade.
The only inharmonious sound that was
lacking, that we think would have
made it complete, is a saw filing solo.
When the doctor realized the situa-
ton he stepped out on the porch to ac-
knowledge the compliment and dis
pense those liquid refreshments that
usually appease the ardor and prevent
an encore. While he was making his
little spiel he did not notice Il female
woman staining by his side. Her APP
pearance, instead of shutting off the en-
core. only made it more enthusiastic.
The doctor promptly admitted that The
joke was on him and promised to give
the crowd anything that it wanted ii
the music would cease. The PROPOSE
ton brought down the house with a
few bursts of sound and the crowd,
which was growing all the time, re-
paired to the place where the doctor
redeemed his promise.
BY way of explanation we might add
that Will Greve personated the bride,
decked out in such female tinery as he
could beg, borrow and swipe from his
acquaintances That the skirt WAS too
short in front and too long behind, and
did not match the waist, made no ma
terial difference.
Mr.. Hadley considers honors easy on
practical jokes, while the doctor thinks
he still owes him one.
