TO see the other she'll with an apparent
lead. But it did not appear TO bother
the Penn men, who knew their course.
From the moment the oars cut the
water the Penn crew appeared the more
nearly perfect machine. The Blue tipped
oars splashed badly at the start. and II
seemed that Yale had boated the green
crew and that Penn had all veterans. ~.
By the first quarter the Penn she'll
had crept n third OF length to the
force. Penn was rowing thirty-six TO
the minute and Yale was pulling at the
rate Of thirty-four. These were the
relative strokes throughout nearly the
entire race.
1t was at the head Of the island
where Yale tried desperately to make a
start Within quarter mile OF the
finish line there was couple Of yards
OF open water between the shell of Eli
and the Penn she'll. McLane, the Yale
coxswain,, screamed his entreaties for
a dash. For q few strokes the Yale
crew seemed able 10 respond, and they
covered up a few feet of that open
water. Then they seemed TO wilt. The
Penn boat kept on at that tantalizingly
regular speed and the gap Of open
water widened.
No Excitement for Boat.
There was no agitation in the she'll
Of the Penn men. They seemed TO row
almost phlegmatically, so smooth was
their work. Ross, who rowed beauti-
full race, seemed like a mechanical
thing, so steady was the stroke of his
oar But the cost Of being a piece of
mechanism for a few minutes was ap-
parent when the Penn she'll crossed the
line. Ross, who seemd to be steel and
iron, wilted like young sapling before
a furnace blast, but not until his work
was done.
The Yale crew came in rather list
lessly after the final effort 10 make a
start. Several of the men were wabbly
during the last quarter mile, and they
all dropped despondently after crossing
the line. They had found in the slight
~ built crew of Pennsylvania tougher
game than they had met at New Lon
don.
The time for the varsity race was:
Penn, minutes 81 1-5 seconds; Yale,
7 minutes 36 15 seconds.
The time OF the second crew race,
which was held just before the var
sity, was much better, and the race it.
self was far more exciting II almost
duplicated the desperately fought bat
tie between Harvard and Princeton at
the Lake Carnegie course on Thursday.
The seconds rowed with their bows
almost parallel for the full length OF
the tricky course. Because of the bend
in tho river it seemed TO the watchers
on the banks that Yale was leading by
half q length, but at the finish the dis
lance was really little more than a
yard. The Yale juniors got in that
final stroke and the blue-tipped oars on
the final heave sent their shell across
first.

The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1916-05-15

lean main" A recent report from
Consul Loop at Hamilton, Bermuda,
shows that more than twenty-seven
per cent of Bermuda's 1914 postal sur
plus came from penalties collected be-
cause of underpaid postage on letters
and parcel mall. These penalties ag-
gregated $3.50. The letters instead
of being prepaid at the usual foreign
letter rate of FIVE cents an ounce bore
two-cent stamps and their recipients
in Bermuda paid double the amount
OF the deficiency, or six cents, as a
penalty.
The same condition prevails in many
other foreign countries and postal au-
thorities here have sought in every
way to bring it to the attention of
Americana carrying on foreign cor
respondence.
