PENN CREW HAS EDGE
ON YALE; COMPARISON
OF THE CONTENDERS
Loss of Veterans Against
Ellis, and Short Practice.
Oarsmen, However, on
Par as to Weight-Satur-
days Races Third Meet.

There is much speculation among col
lege men over the outcome of the race
between the Yale and Pennsylvania
crews Saturday afternoon. Most of the
critics are of the opinion that Pennsyl-
vana should win, but tho Yale ew is
a good one and may do what the Ellis
did to Harvard last year, when they won
at New London by less than yard in the
most sensational race these institutions
ever staged.
Pennsylvania Is the favorlte now for
two reasons. The first and most import
ant is the fact that the Quakers have
more veterans than Yale. Only two MEM
bers of the Red and Blues eight have
been lost, and the crew looks to be even
better than last years boat. Yale. on
the other hand, has lost fire oarsmen.
Only last week the Ellis lost Captain
Denegre, who was obliged to give up
rowing on account of his health. His
place has been taken by Sturtevant.
Tho second reason for. Pennsylvania's SUP
have been on the water for the last month
oarsmen even started their speed work be-
There is really m, way o. comparing the two

PENN AND YALE WORK
ON RIVER TOGETHER
Rival Oarsmen Take Spins on
Schuylkill Today in Prepara-
tion for Saturdays Races.

The University of Pennsylvania varsity
second eights on the Schuylkiil this moru-
ing, and all four elghts which race on
Saturday afternoon had a good work out
The ELS were first on the water and
Coach Guy Nickalls, using the Penn
sylVania coaching launch, took them up to
the head of the course and brought them
down on a time trial. The Yale coach
however, did not announce the time, but
when the crews reached the Undine Boat
Club he said he was very well satisfied
with their performance,
AS soon as the Ellis had returned the
Pennsylvania oarsmen started up the
river. They padded up in leisurely fash
ion and then came down at a more spfr-
tied pace. Late this afternoon both the
Ellis and the Quakers went out for their
second practice of the day. Tomorrow
program calls for practice rows by both
institutions in the morning and after
noon as we'll Vivian Nlckalls the Penn
sylvania instructor, announced that he
would have his men go over the course
Saturday morning, in spite of the fact
that they race in the afternoon. His
brother Guy Nickalls, said he wasn't
prepared to say what his prem -wudIdt az
Saturday morning.
The weather this morning was ideal for
the crews, and the Yale men especially
revelled in the smooth water of the
Schuylkill and the general warmth. con-
ditions which they could not get at New
Haven. The men rowed with much
smoother stroke today. Guy NickalIs is
much impressed with the strength OF
Pennsylvania's junior eight. and dropped
the hint that he thought the Quakers'
second combination had something on
the Yale junior boat. However, he
couldn't be drawn out to make any pre-
dlction regarding the outcome OF the
varsity race.
