Inches Ahead Of the Har-

New London. Conn. June 2o.--By a
margin OF four inches Yale won the
varsity four-mile eight -oared race on
the Thames river yesterday after a
struggle which will stand out In rowing
history.
Through a four mile lane OF steam
yachts and motorboats the 16-crew
men toiled at the Crimson and Blue
tipped oars as no galley slaves ever
iabored under the lash. while thou
sands of spectators shrieked hysteri-
caily.
When the knife like prows OF the
racing shells had cut past the final
line of flags and the oarsmen dropped
with heaving chests, few of the thou
sands knew whether victory had perch
ed upon the bow OF Yale or the Har-
vard~raeing craft
On board the Judges boat at the
finish line could be seen the arbiters OF
the race frantically gesticulating in
conference
Slowly the Harvard coiors began to
sink as the judges shouted across the
water that Yale had won its first
varsity race in seven years by less than
foot in 21 minutes Is seconds. with
Harvard crossing the line one-fifth Of
O second later.
Then the Yale legions lost all re-
straint and the Blue, SO long furled at
the end OF the annual regatta, flashed

But the victors and vanquished saw

exhausted nature was taking her toll.

A few feet away the Harvard eight

by the Yale victory rather than ex-
hausted by the terrific struggle. When
they finally realized that. after seven
years OF dogged effort, Yale had again

Toner should have won his game yes
terday. Still. he contributed with five
free passes and two errors.
When Blausser was on second In the
second, Bostick sent one out to left
field that looked good for a score.
Davis came up like a reckless switch
engine. and the ball stayed up long
enough for him to pluck it. Blausser
was almost to third, and was easily
caught before he could return.
Longanecker missed a very obvious
one in the second, when McClain's
bunt went few feet in the air
straight ahead OF him. Mac ran eight
feet toward the pitcher, keeping in
Weaver's way until the ball dropped
before he started toward first. The In
reference was so palpable that Jensen
and several Irrigators demonstrated
with the umpire. but he could not see
his way to calling it.
Roy Blausser's four lovely hits yes
terday helped some in boosting his
batting. In the first three games
this week he had found only two safe
ones. and his average for the week was
the modest figure .222. Thanks to his
cordial greeting of both Morgan and
Allen yesterday, he has now batted Asa,
or six hits out of 18 times at bat.

on their good behavior, and 1t Is evil

Off the Dope Sheet.

If your philosophy is such that
you're impelled to say there's
nothing to the quality called
luck, you should have seen the
ball game that was pulled off
yesterday, when Toner and his
toppy team we're stuck. For 1t
must be admitted that the Irri-
gators lost, not at the bat nor by
their field mistakes, but by
drawing losing numbers every
time the dice were tossed, and
coming out behind In all the
breaks. When Jimmy's bunt
refused to roll but floated in the
air, and Buck and Red were
caught like drowning rats, bad
luck was working overtime-and
so It was, / swear. when Kelley
slid but got it in the Stats. And
in the ninth, the bases full, but
not a chance to score--why. luck
was only teasing us q while.
Dame Fortune, do not frown
upon your children any more.
but look today upon us with a
smile.

The Seagulls took the game yester-
with 1t. At the end of the fourth it
was tie, after the sixth it was to 2
and ended that way, but the issue was
in doubt until the last Boise batter was
out in the ninth inning. Four times a
winning rally was started by the Irri-
gators, but the visitors saved them
selves by fast fielding fate and tickle
fortune, which is a deadly combination.
To have man on second, or one on
second and one on third, with nobody

Potts and Hester. The former scored
on French's two-bagger Huelsman
and French were both caught between
third and home, pulling Toner out of a
hole In the second a fielder's choice
and two hits gave the Gulls another
run. Boise started to even up without
delay, Blausser putting one to right
center for two bases after Potts had
fumbled Thomas grounder. Kelley
lifted one toward the right field fence,
but Huelsman got under It, Bostock's
good effort met the same fate in Davis
hands, and that swift fielder finished
the frame by catching Blausser before
he could get back to second

Moorehead tapped one gently to ad-
