CORPORATION APPOINTMENTS, New Professor for Medical School. Ass*t Prof. Gruener Advanced. The following report of the May meet- ing of the Corporation was furnished on Tuesday by Prof. Dexter, the Secretary of the Corporation :— At a regular meeting of the Corpora- tion of Yale University, held to-day, the resignation of Dr. C. A. Lindsley, as professor in the Medical School, dated June, 1896, was accepted. Dr. Lindsley having remained in office for the cur- rent year by request of his colleagues, he was now, in view of his long and faithful service, appointed Professor Emeritus in the School. Professor John Slade Ely, of New York City, was elected to the vacant professorship of the Theory and Prac- tice of Medicine, and is expected to begin his duties in the Fall. Professor Ely graduated at the Scientific School in 1881, and received his further medi- cal education in New York City and in Germany. He is now professor in the Woman’s Medical College in New York City, and has made an enviable reputa- tion for proficiency in the pathological basis of medicine. THOMAS F. ARCHBALD. The new Y. M. C. A. Secretary. At the same meeting Assistant Profes- sor Gruener was advanced to a full pro- fessorship of German in the College, and Assistant Professor Wurts of the Law School was also advanced to a full professorship. , Professor O. H. Richardson, Yale Col- lege 1889, and Ph.D. Heidelberg 1897, now holding a professorship in Drury College, was elected Assistant Professor of History in the Academical Depart- ment. Mr. Edward B. Reed, Yale College 1894, was elected tutor of English in the College, and Mr. E. F. Gallaudet, Yale College 1893, Instructor in Physics. Rev. Dr. B. W. Bacon, who has served through this year as instructor in the Divinity School, was elected to the Buck- ingham Professorship of New Testament Criticism and Interpretation. ++ Class Tennis Champions, The annual class tennis tournaments which have been in progress for about two weeks, were finished Saturday May 22. A good chance has been offer- ed for new material to show itself. Ow- ing to a lack of entries it was neces- sary to combine the classes of ’97 and 97 S., and ’98 and 98S. The prizes to the winners were steins with the class and date engraved. Smyth won in the "97 tournament, Booth in ’98, Hooker in aa Walker in ’99S., and Hackett in 1900. ee The Juniors Play Harvard. The Junior nine played the Harvard Juniors on Friday, May 21, in Cambridge and were defeated by a score of 7 to 4. This is the first time that a team repre- senting Yale has visited Cambridge since the renewal of Athletic relations between the two colleges. The best of feeling pre- vailed and repeated cheers were given for the visiting nine. Cozzens’ excellent work in the box was largely responsible for Yale’s defeat. Holt’s batting and the fielding of Foster were features, while Bement made some brilliant stops at third base for Yale. The Score by Innings.

On Monday evening a bonfire was built on the Campus and about a thousand men assembled on the terrace behind the Library to hear those who accompanied the crew tell about the race. The speak- ers had comparatively little to say in regard to the race, however, but they told many pleasant things about the delightful hospitality which the Cor- nellians received from the officers and cadets of the Naval Academy. The expected changes in the crews have not occurred this week. Dalzell’s studies have prevented him from doing any rowing and Raymond has taken his place at Number Seven of the sec- ond crew. But this is only a temporary change and as soon as he can return to the crew he will undoubtedly re- sume his position. The Freshmen have been shifted about considerably, with no definite result as yet apparent. On Wednesday all five crews went out on the lake for a three-mile race. The second University crew gained the lead at the mile point and reached the finish a length ahead of the first Uni- versity, which in turn led the third erew by four lengths. The Freshmen were some distance, perhaps eight lengths, in the rear, the first crew a length and a half ahead. The most no- ticeable things were the _ strength shown by the third University and the second Freshman crew and the im- provement in the first University. This afternoon the five crews raced again and the third University was half a length ahead of the Poughkeep- sie crew at the end of three miles. The second crew was as usual the winner by two lengths or more. It is evident that there is no object in keeping last year’s crew together any longer. De- feat by the third crew was all that was needed to prove their complete in- efficiency. Some positions in the boat must be strengthened without delay. It is altogether probable that on Monday a shake-up between the first and third crews will take place. There seems to be an impression that the Annapolis crew will be kept together for another week at least. Any attempt to predict which men will be taken out of the first boat or who will replace them from the third would be futile. There is no longer any doubt, however, that, although every man of last year’s Uni- versity is in College and is rowing, the crew that will in June has not yet been brought to- gether. —_____@@___- Sophomore Choices.
