Friday pitched good ball all the
way. Barring that wide peg from
BuclSy Harris, the Indians would
have scored but three runs. He
struck out Lutxke and issued but
q single pass. q vastly different
exhibition from that of last Sun

With two down in the sixth,

Yale soon took three-length lead.
Harvard rallied and they were
even near the half way mark. Then
Harvard tired and Yale plunged
into the lead, gaining steadily to
the finish.
Yale was rowing easily and
beautifully as their boat crossed
the line.
Yale's Blue and Harvard's Grim

The historic Thames was ablaze
with color Sportsmen of the ma

yachts; in motor boats and in other
crafts to cheer their favorite crews.
The l1arbor was choaked with mil
lions of dollars worth of crafts OF
all description, sloops, schooners,
yawls, motor boats and steam
yachts all crowded to capacity.
Three Government coast guard cut
tiers patrolled the course.
Women in gay attire, some OF

occasion. They flocked early to the
observation trains. on each bank of

The little city of New London

Weather conditions promised to
be favorable although the day
dawned cloudy with a suggestion
of rain. Shortly after Z o'clock,
however, the sun came out.
Yale WAS the favorite to win.
Some bets were laid at ODDS or 10
on Yale. Rowing experts who
watched recent workouts Of both

is in perfect condition, while not

of Harvard.
Secrecy was thrown about the

leaked out that the old Eli crew
went over the four-mile course
day or SO ago in the remarkable
time of 20 minutes and 2 seconds,
made by Harvard in 1915.
Then, too, another thing that has
made Yale the favorite is the fact
that the present Harvard eight has
not won a race, having been beaten
by Cornell. Navy and. Princeton,
whereas Yale has conquered Prince
