THE WISCONSIN RACE, Westerners at Saltonstall—Statistics and Training. ee The race between the University eight and the Wisconsin crew will be held on Lake Saltonstall, Saturday, May 29. The course is two miles and the race will be started as soon after 4:30 p. m. as possible. It has been decided not to admit the Freshman crew. The officials had not been selected at the time of the Weekly going to press. The Univer- sity boat will not modify its stroke for the shorter course. The best means of reaching the Lake will be by the trolley cars, which leave the Green at short intervals during the afternoon. The University of Wisconsin crew arrived in New Haven Wednesday, May 19. They are quartered near Lake Saltonstall, being thirteen in number, including the crew, substi- tutes, coach and manager. The men have practiced on the lake and taken short runs about the surrounding country. The training up to April 6 was all done in the new rowing tank at their University, as the ice prevented them from rowing on the water before that time. They have, therefore, not had as much experience in watermanship as the Yale crew. Their new shell, which was built for the crew by Davy of Cambridge, did not arrive until Friday, when five days had elapsed since they had rowed in a Shell. Commodore Waite of the Wisconsin Navy, denied the reports that his crew would row Columbia in the Har- lem Regatta, and later the Oniversity of Pennsylvania. He said that it had been definitely decided to return im- mediately after the race with the Yale crew, on May 29. In regard to allow- ing the Hreshmen crew to enter the race and malze it a triangular one, he said that the men were all willing to row them, but the Faculty had ob- jected, on the ground that they had had one Freshmen race last year, and as they had been victorious it seemed scarcely necessary to race them this year. They preferred to row a crew which represented the University, rather than any one class. In speaking of their stroke, Coach O’Dea, of the Yarra-Yarra Boat Club of Australia, said: ‘It is partly. my own, somewhat adapted from. the stroke that is rowed by the oarsmen in Australia. It differs from the Yale stroke in that the swing is not so long, and the recovery is a bit stead- ier, but in other respects it is mainly the same. Of last year’s crew only three are now rowing, and four Fresh- men will possibly row in the race. So it may be seen that the men are some- what new.” The statistics of the two crews are as follows: WISCONSIN, Position. Name. Wt. Stroke—M. E. Sey- mour, ’98, of Be- 1ONTs.

The Freshman crew will go to New London at the close of the recitations in the Academic Department, June 9, and will train on the Thames until two or three days before the race at Pough- keepsie, on June 23, with the Harvard and Cornell Freshmen. | Eleven men will go to New London. The preliminary training of the men was done in the tank during’ the months of January and February, and short runs were taken daily. After March, they moved to the _ harbor, where they rowed short stretches and did pair-oar work. The crew now rows from four to eight miles every day, with short brushes with the University and ciass crews, in whicn they have made a very creditable showing. The second Freshman crew has been main- tained throughout the season and row- ed in tne Spring Kega.ta. A cedar shell, which is a new thing for a Yale Freshman crew, has been ordered from Davy of Cambridge, and wiil be sent directly to New London. The contract for the oars has been given to Donohue of Newburgh. These oars are similar to the English ‘Norris’ oars, which have become so famous, . The coaching of the crew has been at different times in the hands of Mr. Cook, J. O. Rodgers ’98, and H. B. W1l- cox ‘98, all of whom express satisfac- tion at the work of the crew up lO the present time. Mr. Cook said tnat the crew was much better than that of last year, and he expected that they would make an excellent showing in any race they might enter; that the Men were apt now to seem a bit vver-traitned, but that it was a crew with a great deal of power, and one in whicn he could place his confidence. The men who are now rowing on the first crew, with their weights, are.as_ follows: Stroke, W. B. Williams, 160; 7, J. H. Niedecken, 1738; 6, J. C. Green- way, 172; or R. M. McGee, 187; 5, da W.

The Harlem crew, which will repre- sent Yale in the Harlem Regatta on the Hudson May 31, has been entered in two events, the Junior as well as the Senior eight-oared race, and will row in the morning and afternoon. The men have been coached daily by J. H. Simpson, ’97, and up to the pres- ent time have been using the ’94 Uni- versity shell. In the races they will use the last year’s Henley shell. The men who will compose the eight, together with their weights, are as follows: Bow, J. C. McLauchlan, 162; 2, R. Hitchcock, 170; 38, A. B. Marvin, 162; 4, W. P.

The Yale Freshman base ball team played their first game with the Har- vard Freshmen at the Field on Satur- day, May 22, and were defeated by a score of 7 to 2. Owing to the large at- tendance at the Spring Regatta, only 300 people witnesses the game, but the cheering was enthusiastic on both sides, the Yale contingent being led by sev- eral ’98 men. Harvard won a deserved victory. The Yale team was composed of the follow- ing: Eddy, 1. f.; Norton, 2b.; Ferguson, r. f.; Bronson, s. s.; Russell, 1b.; Sulli- van, c.; Crawford, 3b.; Whittlesey, D.; Lyon, c. f.

The University’s Steady Play Brings Two Victories The University nine played a very one-sided and uninteresting game against the Amherst nine Wednesday, May 19, at the Yale Field. In the first inning the home team scored four runs and added five more in the second. The Amherst pitchers were batted freely andthe fielding of the visitors was very weak and uncertain. The feature of the game was a double play by Camp and Fincke, the former catching a liner with his right hand and doublirg . up a runner on third. The final score was 15 to 2.

The Freshmen base ball team de- feated Williston Academy on Wednes- day, May 19th, at Easthampton, Mass., by’ a score of 14 to 5. The game after the third inning was well played and: was noteworthy for the heavy batting of the Freshmen. The pitching of the 1900 team has not improved materially since the beginning of the season. Ly- on played the best game for the Fresh- men, putting out six men in his posi- tion at center field. The team is play- ing well together, and should, before the end of the year, make a good show- ing.

The work of both pitchers was very steady and ef- fective, and their support was stroné- Yale’s victory came as a result of time- ly hits, for her total was not as lare© as her opponents’. Her fielding game was also very fast and clean. CampDbD, Fincke and Letton did the best work in this respect, while Hazen led at the bat. The score: iS ° NS] saommrrebor: Keator.Cf:s60,655..
