HARVARD COVERS COURSE
FOUR MILES IN 22:46.
Crew Pulled We'll Together but Some in Boat Were
 Distressed.
(By the Agsociated Press. ]

Red Top, Conn, June 14.-- Harvard had her first time trial over the four mile course tonight Conditions were not very favorable for fast time as the tide was very low and there were no fGyoring winds. while across the head of the stretch was a slight head wind. Wray lowed the varsity shell down stream and then sent the men away from the bridge at quarter past 8 o'clock. The varsity rowed along to the navy yard, where the freshman eight dropped in with lengths lead. From the two mile mark on both crews rowed a high stroke, averaging 34 and fought it out every bit of the way. The last 300 yards Farley ran the var sity stroke up to 38 and the senior boat cut down the lead rapidly, but the freshman eight managed to cross the line about a quarter of a length ahead.
 The work of the varsity eight was the best seen this year. Every man showed up well and followed Farley without break. At the finish several of the men were nearly rowed out but all managed to stay up after the line was crossed. The time for the four miles was 22 minutes and 46 seconds, which is not considered very good for a four-mile time row and does not equal the Yale time of 22 minutes and il sec- onds.
 Earlier in the afternoon the varsity fcur-oared crew had it's first time row over the two-mile course The boat started at the navy yard just as the tide turned. From there they went to the mile mark where the freshman four picked them up being length in the rear, Bacon forced his crew to the limit but the freshmen pulled ahead and led them by three lengths at the finish. The time of the race was twelve minutes and thirty-four seconds. This was considered very poor, and Coach Wray was much dissatisfied with the work of the four.
 Lunt, one of the varsity substitutes, is laid up for a few days suffering with boils. Many of the men have been troubled with boils so far this year, but Lunt is the only man that has had to give up. R. F. Herricks and E, c. Stor- row of the advisory rowing board were here and watched the work of the crews. Guy Norman of Boston has ar- rived here with his steam yacht Limit and new six cylinder power boat to remain until after the races. He has been entertaining to-day Oliver Filley captain of last years crew, and Theo- dore Roosevelt, jr.

to be guests of the owner on her Sun day, and will have cruise in the sound.
 Examinations will finish in quarters Tuesday, and that afternoon the var sity and freshmen will antagonize each other in a ball game. The result is largely in doubt, each squad feeling confident of it's ability to win.
 The Idea suggested recently by Guy Nickalls and quoted In the Yale News, that it would be desirable thing to invite an English university eight over to row the winners of the Yale-Harvard contest, was discussed somewhat by Yale men. While it is admitted that such an event would give a decided fillip to interest in university boating the difficulties in the way of such a contest were pointed out. The chief trouble would be that the English oars men finish their training and do their rowing in the early spring, and after this it Is almost an impossibility to get crew together This is far earlier in the year than any rowing is done on this side of the Atlantic, It was ad- mitted that it would be a, treat for English oarsmen to come here and row on so beautiful course as the Thames affords, after their experience with the tortuous and tide rlven Putney- Mort lake course

BROWNIES DOWNED
 IN 10-INNINC GAME Lost to Holyoke in Hard Fight With Sherwood
 a Star.
 SPRINGFIELD WINS. Beats Hartford - Whalers Lose to Waterbury and Bridgeport to Norwich.
SPRINGFIELD WINS.

The Brownies took their daily trim ming yesterday after 10 innings of good playing. Holyoke put the tin can on with eclat and verve, whatever that it. It was good game to see, made so by snappy fielding stunts pulled off by each team. In these capers Cupid Sherwood shone as lone star on a dark night.
 As the office boy reports the occur ence 'Onct, Sherry had a man on third wid one down and a screecher come his way lookln' like bully hit Nix. Sherry gobbles i'm and holds dat Holieook guy fast to the bag and then chucks the ball across to Bunyan and nabs the runner by mile. He's wise one Hully, gee, he gets the same chanct wid the next batter and does the same stunt again. Say, dat boy is the whole scream"
 In the seventh pretty piece of fielding came Lepine had gone out, Massey singled and Grubh got two bagger. Baker was given fielder's choice lift but Massey was caught at home on the play. A base on balls to Baker. Then Hayward knocked down hummer and caught him going to second.
 New Haven also had a look-in in the ninth With three balls and two strikes on Fitzpatrick, he got two-sacker off Hodge. Hayward sacrificed him to third. Wade tried to lay down bunt. It went up and turned into an infield pop fly. Out. Sherwood got four wide one and Bunyan came up. No progress. He was caught on an infield hit five feet off first.
 The winning runs were made by Boucher and Thackars. The former | singled, stole second and came home on Thackaras two-bagger. Hodges out advanced Hoffman sent out a long fly and Thackara came home.
 Tn New Haven's half of the tenth the locals never came near a score.
 Umpire Charlie Kennedy was as dis satisfactory as usual. He was off on balls and strikes and was bad on base decisions. His favors, however, were evenly divided.
 Harry Jope was struck in the hand by hot foul in the seventh and was bad enough hurt to retire. Connel went in for him, Curtiss being sent to the right pasture.

SPORTING NOTES.

l Clarence Hobart, twice champion of New England, found more than his match in Theodore Roosevelt Pell ,at Hartford yesterday. Thus does new star in the tennis world rise.
 Harry Jope, for the second time this week, is on the hospital list. Earlier he was hit on the knee; yesterday he had a finger split by 8 foul tip,
 There is a possibility that Mosey King, the New London serapper, a lightweight par excellence, will mix it with one Jeff Doherty. That would make corking card.
 Cupid Sherwood is a long way from dead one on third, and Hayward at short is going some. The excuse for Slapper Kennedy is not apparent, how ever.
 The final interscholastic baseball championship game goes over a week. The schedule and the hines did not agree. Bulkeley high, of New London, was scheduled for here tomorrow, but 1t transpires that that nine is not yet. champion of the east. Pretty late to find it out or is it another try to stir up muss just as New Haven is about to pluck the plum?
 The grammar school athletic meet, which was going to be held Saturday, June p, has been called off. There is so much going on at present in the schools, such as examinations, that the children do not have much time to spend in preparation for the meet.
 The Giants still in hard luck. But then, every National league nine has it in for the New Workers.

DENOUNCE SOUTHERNERS
General Robert Lee Only a
Traitor After All.
Members Of Cooper Post Attack
the Methods Used in the
Marion High School

In general discussion which fol-
lowed u program nj the meeting
of Cooocr Post G.. \. Il last night
the old soldiers spoke in n nonap-
proving manner OF the SPIRIT en-
isling among The pupils Of the high
school regarding the southern lead
ers Of the Civil war. There is n
wrong Influence somewhere which
must be stopped, remarked a
member. "lt seems as though the
pupils are taught 10 regard the
southern leaders as even greater
men than the northern Generals;
if that feeling exists it destroys
patriotism for even though the
ability of the southern leaders
cannot be questioned, yet they
were traitors to the country and
school children should never be
taught to revere their names," con-
cludod the speaker.
The members declared it not the
proper thing to allow pupil in a
high-schocl oratol'ical contest to
choose u subject such as "Robcrt +.
Lee, picturing him as u success
and reviewing his brave deeds.
Even though We assure that he was
conscientious in his work, ho was
traitor nevertheless and the
spirit TO modify and glorify n
traitors name is not conclusive to
cultivate patriotism.
