NEWS OF OTHER COLLEGES,
HARVARD.
Judging from the large attendance
and enthusiasm displayed at the mass
meeting held in Sanders Theater on
Monday night it certainly seems as
if the interest shown recently in row-
ing affairs by Harvard men is real
and of a permanent character, and not
merely a passing curiosity aroused by
the advent of Mr. Lehmann, and
which will disappear on his departure.
Speeches were made by Major Higgin-
son, Hon, William Everett and Mr.
Lehmann. The latter is quoted as
follows:
“To a cold-blooded philosopher it
seems ridiculous that eight men should
wield their oars, not for gain, but
merely for mental and physical con-
sideration, for the sake of rowing
alone. We older men love to see you
engage in this sport, for we know that
it is a splendid physical exercise, pro-
motive of all manly virtues. The de-
sire of victory must be present, but
the victory itself is nothing. Ever in
exercise we can have high ideals and
lofty aims. Let us do whatever we
have to do with all our might and
main,
“Tf look -forward to the time when
I shall return, and with the help of
the oarsmen we shall carry the work
to a successful issue. I thank you for
the opportunity you have given to me
of addressing you; for your patience
and courtesy to me here, and, above
all, because you have given to my
heart a right to beat in unison with
those of Harvard men the world over.”
Mr. Lehmann sailed yesterday for
England, but expects to return to
Cambridge early in March, and will
be with the crew until after the
Poughkeepsie race.
The Harvard University crew took
their last row of the year on the river
Friday afternoon, and will not go into
training again until some time in
January. The men rowed in the fol-
lowing order: Stroke, Bull; 7, Good-
rich; 6, J. F. Perkins; 5, J. H. Perkins;
4, Sprague; 38, Hollister; 2, Thomson;
bow, Boardman.
It has been decided to omit the
usual Fall concert given in Sanders
Theater by the Musical Clubs and to
give a concert in its stead after the
Christmas recess.
PRINCETON.
The first of the series of six indoor
handicap meetings arranged.by the
Princeton Track Management was
held at the Casino last Wednesday
afternoon. One of the most serious
obstacles with which Princeton track
athletics has had to contend in the
past has been the lack of incentive
to steady winter practice and it is
hoped that these competitions will put
a new interest into the rather
motonous work of the track men, On-
ly four events were contested on ac-
count of darkness, and the remainder
will probably be concluded next
Saturday. Aithough the program
was not completed the events were
very interesting, especially the 28
yards dash, in which there were three
dead heats.
The summary of the games is as fol-
fows:
28 yard = dash, final—Jarvis, 1900
(scratch), first; Heindon, ’99 (4 feet), sec-
ond; Bottger, ’99, (8 feet), third; time
8 4-5 seconds.
Putting 12 pound shot—Bottger, ’99,
(3 1-2 feet), first; Garrett, ’97, (scratch),
second; distance, 43 feet.
Putting 16 pound shot—Craig, Senior,
(3 feet), first; Potter, ’98, (4 feet), second:
Garrett, °97, (scratch), third; distance, 35
feet 10 1-2 inches.
Light weight wrestling—Poe, 1900, threw
Harkness, ’97; time, 1 minute, 45 seconds,

of the building at the end next
Witherspoon Hall. The work is being
pushed as rapidly as possible and from

The Inter-hall committee on debate has
decided to hold a supper at the Princeton ~
Inn immediately after the Harvard de-
bate on,Dec. 18. It is expected that there
will be representatives present from
both Yale and Harvard who will make
short addresses. The Inter-hall commit-
tee has extended an invitation to the stu-
dents at Yale to be present at this de-
bate.
Att a recent meeting of those men in
College interested in whist, it was de-
cided to hold a tournament as soon 4s
possible. A challenge has been received
from Yale for a series of games to be
played in the early Spring, and it is for
the purpose of determining whether there
is a sufficient knowledge of the game in
Princeton to justify the acceptance of
the challenge, that the tournament has
been arranged.

YALE MEN AS LAWYERS.
Prominent Alumniin the Profession—
Their Location.
Mr. Francis Bergstrom, a graduate
of Yale College in the class of ’88 and
a member of the Minneapolis Bar, has
compiled and published a directory of
the graduates of Yale College in the
practice of law. It is arranged in al-
phabetical order by States, cities and
towns. The names are arranged in or-
der oficlasses, the name of the oldest
graduate in any place being first, etc.
It contains 1,400 names, representing
40 States, 300 cites and towns and six
foreign countries. The purpose of this
directory is to facilitate professional
correspondence among Yale graduates.
In glancing over its pages many
eminent names are noticed, among
them the names of three United
States Supreme Court Justices,—
Shiras, Brewer and Brown; Hon. Wil-
liam K. Townsend, Judge of the Uni-
ted States District Court of Connecti-
cut; Hon. John M. Thayer, Judge of
the Superior Court of Connecticut;’
Leonard E. Wales and Hon..
Hon.
Charles M. Cullen, Associate Justices
of the Superior Court of Delaware;
Hon. Anthony Higgins, ex-United
States Senator; Hon. Henry B. Free-
man, Judge of the Superior Court of
Tllinois;: Hon. James H. Brent, Judge
of the Sup2rior Court of Kentucky;
Hon. Isaac Atwater, ex-Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of Minnesota;
Hon. Irvington G. Vann, Judge of the
Court of Appeals for New York; Hon.
Joseph F. Barnard, Judge of the Su-
preme Court of New York; Hon. Rob-
ert M. Wilson, Justice of the Supreme

Judge of the United States Court of
Rhode Island; Hon. William S. Flem-
ing, Judge of the Superior Court of
Tennessee: Hon. John B. Rector, Judge
of the United States Court of Texas;
Hon. William H. Upton, Judge of the
Superior Court of Washington, and
Hon. Chauncey M. Depew, of New
York City, as lawyers not now in prac-
tice. Among those now in active prac-
tice, we recognize the names of many
of the most eminent lawyers in this
country, e. g.: Judge Henry HE. How-
land, Hon. William M. Evarts, Hon.
George P. Andrews, Hon. Daniel H.
Chamberlain, Burton N. Harrison, Jo-
seph F. Randolph, Hon. William C.
Whitney and Ernest G. Stedman of

Cuvler and Ferree Brinton, of Phila-
delphia, and Hon. Charles E. Vander-
burgh, of Minneapolis, together with
many ex-judges, ex-congressman and
ex-senators. This directory will be
specially valuable to lawyers who fre-
quently are obliged to send legal mat-
ters away to other States and cities
and wish to employ college men and
thus insure the best service. The price
of this directory is 50 cents.
