In; who gathered in this little old
whaling town yesterday and last night
in ahtlcipamm of' the aiiuual contest on
the) Thames between the oarsmen of
fair narvard and old Yale scheduled
for today. wakened this morning to
find the condition weatherwlse any-
thing bttt encouraging. It was the
~ same old story which has been told so
”consistently throughout the last eigh-
teen days and every one prepared for
a day of disagreeable experiences and
possible delay in the pttlling off of the
, events scheduled.
New and then during the. night the
dritlzling rain that has already soaked
Connecticut to saturation. tell. The
early morning, however, brought with
It a let-up in the matter of rain. bttt a
bleak wind blew out of the northeast,
‘ . and with not a vestige of the still to be
»~seen throltgh the clouds the atmos-
. paste was raw and penetrating.
The average enthusiast made It a
. point to catch a glimpse of the waters
of the Thames as early as possible. He
found the conditions to be those which
have prevailed practically ever since
the rival crews reached New London
for their final preparation blowing
. diagonally across and down the river
the wind bucked the tide and kitkcd
mp a choppy sea. Everyone agreed that
runless 'the late forcnoon brought a
change the regatta would not material-
ize according to schedule and the thou-
sands of prospective spectators Would
have to dawdle away the day until
evening, with a possibility of a post-
' ponement even then.
‘Away up the river at the quarters 01‘
the oars‘men the disappointment was
, just'ss keen, but the rival crews went
..about things in special preparation for
the events in the twenty-fifth annual
regatta over this course. Of the twenty-
four races which have. been rowed on
:- the Thames between the 'varslty eights
- of the Cambridge and New Haven uni-
‘ Iverslties, Yale has a record of sixteen
' victories. Harvard has won eight. '1‘er
New Haven collegians confidently ex-
pected to make it the seventeenth to
day while the young men from Cam-
bridge were not without encourage-
.Iénent tnat this was to be Harvard’ s
ay y.
Before 9 o'clock this morning. the
chairman of the regatta committee.
with the referee. W. H. Meikieham. of
Columbia went out on the river and
over the course for a final inspection.
They reported that everything was in
readiness for the contests except the
cweather. and every one waited to see
. hat the forenoon would bring forth.
Meanwhile the harbor presented an an-
violated scene During the night many
schts had arrived and early In the

Four-Oared Race.
For the first time since I‘lll‘t‘f'i be
twccn iour-ottrctl crews have bcctt ti
feature on the 'i‘ltsmts course. Yalc
today won a victory. The t'our—ottrctl
contest was the ilist cvcut in the day's
regatta. It was scheduled to start at
11 o'clock. bttt it was almost exactly
Italian hour Inter when thc two crews
were sent away. Yale’s fmtr caught
the water at the crack of the pistol
and jumped to thc front. 'l‘hcy wcrc
never headed. At tlic half mile tltc
New Haven men had a lead of some-
thing over a length and a quarter. At
the mile Harvard was about two
lengths behind. Still gaining and
rowing in superb form. Yule sped
down the course and at the mile and
I1 half scented a certain winner. At
this juncture. however, Harvard
spurtcd. Yale met the effort and con-
tiiutcd to draw away to a decisive
victory by three and a half lengths
in the time of 10:59 2-5, with Har-
vard 1022-5 seconds behind. The of-
ficial time:
Yule 10:59 and 2-5
Harvard 11:10 1—5.
Yule wonlby three lengths.
Freshmen Race.
The second race, that hetwcen frcsh-
men crews, over the course front the
Navy Yarti two miles down the river
to the railroad drswbridgc. resulted in
a victory for the Yale youngsters. The
crews were started shortly after the
four oared race. Like their older fei-
iow students in the four, the Yale
freshmen proved superior to their
Harvard rivals in getting away. ’1 hey
caught the water viciously and before
settling down to the regular racing
stroke. established themselves in the
lead by a full quarter of a length.
Yale's men were never passed by their
opponents. although the race was
fiercely contested. Yale pulled a slow-
er, but more telling stroke, and was
able to check every attempt on the
part of Harvard to pull up. At the
half mile Yale's lead was a matter of
a second and a half. or practically halt
a boat's length. Harvard spurted at
the one mile flag. and beforeYaIe dis-
covered these tactics the Cambridge
boys had cut down the lead by the
half a second and Yale led by a scant
second. The sons of Eli, however. hit
up the stroke at once. For another
half mile it was a pretty contest. but
approaching the mile and a half Yale
increased her stroke from thirty-three
to thirty-five and began to draw away
again.
seconds.
'Vsrslty Race.
Both crews caught water at the
same time. but in a moment the Har-
vard boat crept ahead by a quarter of
a length. Harvard rowed a stroke of
. thirtyIaix while Yale kept the stroke
down to thirty- three. Both eignts
splashed a little on the way to the half
mile station. but both were rowing in
excellent form.
As the crews neared the half mile
Harvard increased her lead slightly
until she had half a length to the good.
At this point the bow of the Yale
boat was splashing Harvard’s time
for the half mile was 2: 30 1-5;Ya1e.
2: 31 1-5.
Half way to the mile station Her.
vard lost part of the gain. but she was
still slightly ahead of the E11 oars—

Among those whom it is thought
are in favor of the new plans are the

many of the others are also.
At the present time the company
