ACCOMMODATIONS FOR
 BOAT RACE CROWD POOR
Limited Capacity of New London ob-
 servatiop Trains.


 Tn the Yale Alumni Weekly of cur rent date appears letter from Yale man complaining of the lack of ac- commodations for spectators at the Ya1e-Harvard boat race. As the sit uation stands, there are two thousand tion-car people, and there are five thousand applications for seats. The undergraduate requirements, of course must be met first and, as may be imagined, by the time the student de- mand has been filled there are few enough tickets remaining for alumni consumption. In fact, only applications for single seats will be considered by the Yale ticket department. The graduate who desires to 20 with a party, as most graduates do, is unable to arrange for more than one seat on the observation train, and, indeed, he is fortunate if he receives a, single sit ting. In other words, as the Weekly says, he may go alone, or stay away. Surely" adds this magazine, there must be some way out of the difficult ty." There is. As matter of fact, the editor suggests one when he asks if the possibility of bleachers has ever meea considered. Now, the way to squarely, without side glances or squinting. Thus looking. the question arises, What good is an observation car seat at New London, anyway :? President HadleyS remark that a boat race crowd took the most trouble to see the least. was probably formu- 1 lated on board a New London observa- ton train. There are tracks running along the two shores (sic) of the Thames, the New Haven on the east and the Central Vermont on the west. 1 If the race is upstream, the New Ha- | ven spectators see the start, because | their train stands on the drawbridge, But as soon as the train leaves this bridge the crews are lost to view while | the engine pulls the cars out into the country, finally making turn and coming to the river after the crews have gone about a mile. The course I so lies that the crews trend steadily towards the west bank of the Thames, I finally finishing the race in a little cove which is practically out of range l of vision of the spectators on the New Haven train. If the race is at all close. no one on these observation cars f has any idea which crew won. And l all the way up the course the crews | and their shells suggest objects seen Il through the little end of a telescope On the Central Vermont cars there is no view of the start at all because l of the yachts which shut off the course: because, too. of the distance from the starting point. Intervening l hills hide the eights at frequent inter- vals, and the only real view of the boats is the finish. When the regatta is rowed down the river the situation

Cor neilss freshman crew prevented Syra- clne from sweeping the river In the 22d annual regatta of the Intercollegi- a4es Rowing association by winning the two mile race for airst year eights here shortly atternoc today. finishing with q alead .of about two and a haaf lengths. After thrilling racs wtah Pennsylva- nias the Eyracuse freshmen uosed the 0ualrars out of second pIace by about two feet Pennsy ylvania was an easy third over Columbia which finished Last by some six lengths.
 The odicial times were: Cornell 11.05 4-5. Syracuse 11.15 3-5, Pennsy1- vanfa HIS 1-5. Co1umbia 11.29 2-5.
 The race was roWed upstream, the start being made at 12.07 o'clock, against wind and current, in a light rain. Syraclse was first away, but Pennsy ylvania jumped into the lead at Cornell before the half mile mark was reached From this point the Ithaca eight was never headed and led at the mile by a length, with Pennsylvania second one and a half lengths ahead of Syracuse. and Columbia last, a quarter length behind the Orange freshmen. Coming out from under the bridge. Syracuse spurted and soon drew up on even terms with Pennsyl- vania, leaving, Columbia well astern. From the mile and a half point to the finish interest centered in the battle for second place, Cornell easily holding first Syracuse and Pennsylvania fought it out stroke for stroke to the end. All the eights finished in good form and none of the oarsmen appear ed to be particularly distressed.
 Captain John L. Collyer of the Cor nell varsity returned to Ithaca with the freshmen and 1t was announced that he would be operated upon for 3 tumor on his chest.

 Orders now on hand. the nations prosperity and the fast swelling ranks of people who recognize the motor car as a utility and, in many cases q necessity rather than an expensive luxury-these were given as the chief reasons for the prospect of a contin- uing demand of even larger proportion than ever before known.
