BOTH YALE AND HARVARD
CONFIDENT OF VICTORY.
Established in Regatta
TO-Dny.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Gales Ferry, Conn, June 29.-Harvard
crews on the eve of the big races on the
Thames are more confident than they have
been in years. The Harvard men know
they have a fast crew and feel sure that
it will take n faster crew than Yale has
had in several years to beat the crimson
varsity eight tomorrow.
Both sides feel confident that if the con-
ditions are at all good the old record of
~ minutes, 10 seconds, which was made
in 1881, will go by the board. In time rows
the Yale crews have probably done slight
ly better than their Harvard rivals, but
the crimson crews have improved stead
lily since they came to Red Top a month
ago and it is a belief that the crew in the
race tomorrow will do its best work of
the year. That raises the hopes of the
crimson 'rooterN."
Both varsity eights have done fast
work in shOrt-distancc rows and the race
for the first mile is likely to be a killer"
II is from this fact that many think the
race will depend upon conditions. If bOtn
crews race to their limit for the nrSt
mile the break is likely to come at this
point ana the race be won and lost right
there.
Harvard stock doomed immensely when

Immediately chose the west course FOR
the varsity and four-Oar and the east
course for the freshmen.
There was plenty of money in sight in
New London tonight. but it was mostly
at even money. Early in the day, Yale
was given 10 10 on the Varsity and ask
ing 10 to on the fOur-Oar and the fresh
men. but by night the betting had come
around to evens on all three races.
The four-Oared race is conceded at both
camps to Harvard. The reason for this
Is mainly because of the extraordinary
weakness of the Yale four. the Har-
ward four. since Bronwell was forced to
retire this week, is not up to average.
