HARVARD WINS
AT new LONDON
Defeated Yale in Great Struggle
for Aquatic HOnOrS First Vic
tory in Seven Years.

NEW LONDON, Conn, June 29.-In
the sight of the greatest crowd ever
gathered here on race day Harvard de
feated Yale In the varsity race for the
first time since 1899.
Coming after years of defeat and I'M
der the auspices of n new rowing coach
and after two defeats in the minor
races Of the regatta, the triumph Of
Harvard over Yale was like wine and
bread to the starving wanderer in the
desert. 1t was a victory owe a great
Yale crew, a crew that had smashed all
records of the Thames In practice,
and went TO the stake boat a ~favorlte.
To whip such a crew under such con-
ditions was a triumph which warrants
Harvard's %rapturous joy, a joy that at
FIRST was talked over quietly and which
then broke out into wild and tumul-
tu0us glee. ftd N2E

athletic heroes in over twenty years,
while Yale is glad to shake the hand
of such rivals and give them full credit
for a wonderful race.
Harvard won, and this tells the whole
story for Harvard. But Yale rowed a
race that will live long in the annals
of college sports. Not ace from the
start of the race until the last six
teenth of a mile did the long graceful
shells cease to lap each other and the
prows to zigzag between the swings
of sixteen powerful backs.
Are you ready, Harvard? Are you
ready, Yaie?"
Bang went the referees pistol, and
the crews ripped their oars through the
water and shot away from their stake
boats. They started on equal terms,
but after the first few strokes Yale had
a trife the better of the fight, and by
the time the racing starts had been
rowed out there was scarcely any diff
ference between the noses of the two
shells.
Over the second half mile Yale grad
ually settled down into her normal
gait, which was thirty strokes to the
minute, and as the Ellis did this the
Cambridge men let their stroke down
to thirty-one. The experience and the
level head Of Captain Filley began to
become conspicuous. He was watch
ing his rival, Boulton, and measuring
him with deadly aim. The two crews
held this stroke from n short distance
after the first half mile flag had been
passed almost to the two mile flag.
When the Ellis settled down to their
normal gait their shell travelled better.
and they not only cut down Harvard's
slight lend but gained two seconds on
Harvard.
AS soon as Filley had taken the lead
away from Yale he let his stroke down
to thirty. and at this gait both crews
passed the two and Il half mile flag
and the three mile flag.
1t was now clear for the first time
that barring s0me accident the race
belonged to Harvard. Filley had more
power to spare than Boulton had, and
Yale's swing was beginning to look
slow and lfeavy.
A quarfet of akrlile from the finish
B0ulton raised his stroke to thirty-two.
where he gamely held it for a shot
distance as Harvard raised hers first
to thirty7one. htlen to thirty-two-a1d
finally to thlrty-three. Euley with
deadly precision WIS now measuring
off Yale's 9efeat.
When tile Harvard captain let go the
LAST burst of his power Yale had fin
ished up every ounce of her endurance,
and the crimson shell sped on to vic
tory. Harvard finished the race in o
minutes 2 seconds Yale in % minutes
II seconds.
The loss of the freshmen race wa
disappointing to Harvard. as there was
every expectation that their freshmen
would defeat Yale.

went to Yale in easy style, and the
two victories were a repetition of Yales

JERSEY AT
WASHINGTON
What Congressman and Senators
Are Doing at National Capital
for Their Constituents.
eFrom the NEWS CORRESPONDENCE

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 29.-
New Jersey did well in the matter of
appropriations for public buildings.
With the $125,000 which Senator
Dryden had added to the bill by the
senate committee of which he was a
member, the state will get $652,000
in all. The items are as follows:
Jersey City, $400,0OO; Elizabeth,
$4,000; Trenton, $125, 900; Bridge
ton, $65,O0O; Perth Amboy, $1,000;
Atlantic City, $4,000.
Some of the members of the senate
committee thought that the state was
getting it's full share, but Senator
Dryden presented the case of Trenton
so ably that it was placed on the bill.
The policy of the senate committee,
in its consideration of the bill, was to
cut down everything as much as pos
sible, and there is no doubt that the
only thing that saved New jerseys
appropriation was the splendid stand
ing that the senator has with the
members of the committee, and the
fact that he was a member of the
same committee.
The senator did what he could in
behalf of Passaic, but inasmuch as
the house had ignored it the com
mittee did not feel that it could put
the item in the bill just at this time,
the Passaic item, therefore, was omit
ted. The New Jersey congressman
are grateful to Senator Dryden for
the able in which he took
care of their matters in the commit
tee.

Germany knew nothing of Emperor Nicholas's
intention before the invitation was received sew
