Harvard will lose by graduation seven of the sixteen oarsmen who rowed the Crimson varsity and sec- ond varsity shells to victory against Yale on the Thames recently but will have a winning freshman crew firm which to draw for the 1917 com bina- tions. Of the winning Syracuse crews in the Poughkeepsie regatta the ujnior varsity will be intact next spring if Coach Ten Eyck desires to row the com mbination in that order while but one man, Capt. Glass, is lost from the university com bination. With fifteen of his sixteen winning oarsmen back at Syracuse next sea- son and a freshman eight which won second place in the race for first year men, Coach Ten Eyck is better fixed for rowing material for 1917 than any coach in either the New London or Poughkeepsie regatta
 Officers of the Amateur Athletic Union are preparing a list of the sol- dier athletes of the various states mill itia with the idea of having a com plete record of every man who Is prominent in sport and who is or may be enrolled with the forces now being sent to the Mexican border. A cir cular letter has been sent to every A. A. U. division, club and military organization asking that the names of all men serving with the troops be forwarded to headquarters together with their records.
 From the replies there will be com piled list showing the name. age, club, athletic speciality and record of each. man as well as the regiment he Is a member of and the place through which mail will reach him. The lists will be printed in pamphlet form and revised frequently in order that they may be kept up to date. It is hoped that these booklets will prove of value to the athletes relatives, the A. A. U. officials and in fact all those who are In any way connected with sport. The list will not be confined exclusively to members of the A. A. U., however, and the names of all prominent sport devotees including tennis and golf players, oarsmen and others, serving with the colors win be included as far as available.

Although New London is leading the Eastern league and has one of the best teams ever seen in this section, the home fans are supporting the club very poorly. Crowds of 200 and 300 are turning out for week day games. A New London sport writer views the situation in a mournful way and predicts that unless the folks visit the park in greater numbers Owner Plant will throw up the sponge. Just imagine how the Bridge port fans would pack the park if they had a team like New London.
 The often repeated charge that Boston Red Sox pitchers deliberately use the bean ball led up to the fight between the Washington and Boston players yesterday. For the past two seasons players on other teams have claimed that Boston fingers throw balls at the heads of opposing bat ters to intimidate them. Suggestions Fave been made that the umpires should impose a penalty on pitchers who do this but it is difficult to tell whether finger is doing such cow ardly action Intentionally. There is no place in baseball for men who will descend to such tactics and steps should be taken to punish all offend CTS.
