neared the scene the body of Captain 1 Hinsch appeared on the surface and rope was thrown to him. He still had strength to reach for the life line and when it was thrown near him, af- ter several unsuccessful attempts, he caught it and clung to it until he was hauled aboard the tug.
 The current in the vicinity of the wreck attains a high speed and in all probability Captain Hinsch would have been swept far from the spot, had he not caught a hold upon the rope which dragged him down with the tug. At any rate Captain Hinsch attributes the fact that he is alive to the rope that took him near to the bottom Of the Race.
 Eugene Duzant was an expert diver and swimmer. Many years of his life were spent in diving for pearls in the West Indies. Since going to New London and entering the employ of the Scott Go. he had several oppor- tunities to demonstrate his ability as a diver. On one occasion an auxil- iary fishing smack put into New Lon- don and went to the Scott Co. in quest of a diver. The company's corps of divers were engaged in another city. Duzant was in the vicinity and over heard the conversation of the captain and an official of the company.

The entering class at Storrs college numbers 103 this year. an increase of 19 over the entering class of last fall. This is a percentage increase of 29 and an exceptionally good showing for such year as this. While in most other New England colleges the size of the entering class las decreased this fall, because of various reasons, here at Connecticut ] satisfactory in crease was secured. Rhode Island. Massachusetts Aggies and New Hamp- shire are illustrative of the colleges where entering classes this fall were smaller than usual
 Forty-f1Ve or the new students have registered in the college courses, as compared with 31 last year. There are more co-eds in the entering class here than there are in the first year class at Massachusetts. Many who register ed failed to appear fer the opening of college. Inquiries by the office re- vealed the fact that all but one of the 34 who had intentions of entering this year failed to come to college because they were holding positions which they did not care to give up.

sToRRs TEAM SECOND
 IN JUDGING HORSES
College Hcvses Did We'll With Dragon,
 Jrr Second.

The standing of the Storrs team in the horse classes at the New England Contest in Brockton is as follows: 282.5; Maine 352.5; Rhode Island, 3275: New Hampshire 260.0.
 The horses judged were particularly hard classes as they averaged over a ton in weight, were all the same color, and practically the same age and in high condition. Both classes were ring, and only a short time was al- lowed for placing, all of which tended to confuse the contestants.
 The horses shown by the Animal Husbandry Department at the Ma tional Dairy Show caused much favor by J. Crouch & Son, of Indiana
 That Dragon Jr., was entitled to win in his class is the consensus of opin- ion of all who were close observers. This would have given him a cham pionship in Percheron stallions and to Crouch entry; it was very disap- pointing not to get the championship.
 The comment of the Breeders Ga zette of Chicago follows:
 "The class for stallions, two years old and under, four brought out Dragon Jr., shown by the Connecticut Agricultural College, splendid speci- men of the breed. "Idear a horse with a little more scale was placed over Dragon Jr., who was popularly pronounced superior sin confirmation, quality, action and Set of legs and feet. Dragon Jr., is black, weighins 1,750 pounds; as a two-year-old, he was the popular choice for champion ship honors.
 John Buckler, superintendent for John A. Spoor, ex-president of the Union Stock Yards, Chicago, said:
 There is no question about his su- periority over the other colt. Dragon Jr. should have easily won in his class and been champion of the show" MT. Buckler showed Dragon at the Inter- national Live Stock Exposition at Chi cago in 1907, when he won grand championship. He states that in his opinion the colt is equal to his sire in every respect and superior in the stiles. His opinion was voiced by many of the leading stock men of the country and Canada.
 Carbon II, who through the kindness of S. D. Wicks, of Pomfret, stayed at the College barn last year was third, and the Crouch farm stood fourth, with their second entry in this class.
 In t1a three -year-old Percheron- mare class, Crouch secured first and second. and Queen Victoria. shown by the College. won third, and a Massa- chusetts entry fourth.
