YALE AND HARVARD READY
FOR GREAT REGATTA
ON RIVER TO-DAY
Outcome of Big Annual Struggle
Proves Problem to the
Knowing Ones

NEW LONDON, Conn, June 30.-The
night before the Harvard regatta
finds pactissns OF both sides equally
confident.
Harvard won the toss for the two
varsity races and chose the west course.
1t IS generally supposed that in racing
up stream. as the varsity race will be
rowed, there is an advantage TO tho
crew having the west course in the
smoother waters of the upper reaches
of the Thames.
Yale won the toss in the freshman
event and took the east side in that
contest. which viii be rowed from the
navy yard 10 the drawbridge.
Harvard won the two lesser events
of the regatta today. These were the
eentlemens Fights for the Graves cup
RESULT Is UNCERTAIN
Not in the so or more years history
of Harvard and Yale rowing has there
been so much uncertainty regarding the
outcome Of the annual struggle.
The Harvard crew is made up of
veterans while the Yale crew is COM
posed of comparatively green oarsmen.
Yet so we'll have the Yale men been
trained that their Craftsmanship is al
most perfect and the boat never
seems TO lose speed. On the other hand,
the Harvard boat is propelled by sea-
soned Oarsmen who are still new to
their positions, with the result that,
while the boat has a great drive. espe-
cialIy under the quick catch which the
men have been taught. there is a no.
ticeable sag at the recover.
DIFFERENT STROKES USED
The contest viii be a struggle be-
tween the slower stroke and long leg
drive OF Yale and the faster stroke of
Harvard. modelled after the English
stroke, and which frequently is sent
up s high as SO per minute
The two varsity crews Will line up
under the draw bridge at o'clock D. m.
and start on their four mile journey up
The record of the course is 20 minutes
10 seconds, which has stood since it
was made by Yale 81 years ago.
In today's freshmen events Yale was
unable TO I'LL the crew of four, and it
was agreed to make ii three oars in
q she'll
