 Yale, Princeton, Cornell CrewSO on HOuSatOnic Sat.

Yale's second regatta of the year on the Housatonic River will take place Saturday when Yale, Prince ton and Cornell will row it out over the two mile course for the Carnegie Cup, now held by Cornell. The Big Red took the trophy from Yale in 194O in a split second vic- tory over the Ellis on the Housa- tonic. Last year, the race sched- dled for Lake Cayuga, CornelrS home waters, was cancelled because of high winds.
 This will be the 23rd rowing for the Carnegie Cup, first put up for competition in 1914 and, of the twenty-two races rowed, Yale has won 13 times, Cornell T, and Prince ton 2. There have been plenty of thrills over these years and Satur- days race promises another.
 Yale showed fine form in captur- ing the Blackwell Cup on May 2 and the crew has progressed con- siderably since that date. Cornell. a good crew, has lost to Harvard and the Navy by narrow margins, and easily defeated Syracuse. That eight seems to be the one Yale has to beat to regain possession of the cup, although Princeton may sur- prise, in spite of the fact that the Tigers have not had 8 highly suc- ceEsfuI season.
 Cornell, Champs!
 The record for the Derby course and. incidentally, the regatta, was made in that heartbreaker of two years ago by Cornell. The mark is e:33A. Yale's time for that race was one-fifth of a second slower.
 The crews of Princeton and Cor nell will reach town tomorrow and turn out on the Housatonic. as will Yale.
 Three races are scheduled, the first between the freshmen of the three universities at 5:30; the sec- ond between the junior varsity crews at 6. the third being the war; Eity race due to get under way ct 6:30. The referee will be Albert w. Putnam of Columbia, who has been head man at New London for the past few years.

 Pitches No-Hitter

Unable to bat out a single bingle from the assortment of pitches served up to them, Sacred Heart battets in the High School Frosh league were 2l to zero victims f Joe Pope, former Kingsbury school twirler yesterday afternoon. Five Heart errors also contributed to the large score of the Crosby Freshmen which scored 10 runs in two in- nings, the fifth and sixth. Tn ad. dition to his perfect pitching per- forrnance, Pope also popped out Q home run, while Jenson hit dou- ble and triple.
 Wilby and Leavenworth had Q much tighter league game, the Tech team winning ' to 4 scoring steadily for it's seven runs in four cOnsecu- tive innings, while Hennie held the Wildcat Cubs to eight hits which were scattered. DiBlascio's two bass whack produced three runs in the sixth as the bases were loaded.

words at the time you strength that

Office of Civilian Defense in Washington, 's truly bene-

Several small groups in Coolidge are now practicing
this prayer habit. These groups spreading so that

time but will if pracced by the hundreds of this com
