YALE ALUMNI
UNIVERSITY BALL GAMES,
Seores of Contests of the Last Two
Weeks.
The University nine met Holy Cross at
Springfield, Wednesday, June 2, and won
in a loosely played game by the score of
li to 5. Murphy caught for Yale for the
first time this year and Fearey was in
the box for the first time since the acci-
dent to his hand several weeks ago. The
work of both men was excellent consid-
ering their lack of practice. Fearey was
a little wild and was unable to use his
hand easily in batting. The best work for
Yale was done by Letton and Farnham at
the bat and Fincke in the field. The
work of Holy Cross was uncertain in the
field and weak at the bat. They were
clearly outplayed. The score:
YALE.

YALE 22, EDGEWOOD 3.
The University nine defeated the Edge-
wood team at the Field, Monday, May 31,
by the score of 22 to to 3. Yale batted
very hard and Edgewood’s fielding was
very loose and uncertain. Yale’s fielding
game was very clean with one or two
exceptions, partially excusable, owing to
the slippery condition of the diamond.
Hamlin held down his opponents pretty
well, their hits being never for more
than one base. The teams were made up

Strength Record Broken.
In a trial at the Gynasium Thursday
afternoon, June 3, Charles Chadwick,
97, succeeded in breaking all previous
records in the college strength test
with a remarkable total of 2135 kilo-
grams. This is far ahead of any prev-
ious score. Early in April Mr. Chad-
wick made his first trial and sur-
passed Lovering of Harvard, the form-
er record-holder, by a small margin.
A week later Chadwick’s.score was
beaten by C. S. Verrill, ’998., with a
total of 1676 kilograms, which has
stood as record until Chadwick’s fre-
cent trial.
The number of times a man is able
to chin himself and dip between’ the
parallel hars, is used as hasis of the
test for strength of chest and upper
arms. Considering his weight, 1961-2
pounds, Chadwick’s record of thirty
chins and twenty-five dips, is remarka-
ble.
The way in which Chadwick, Ver-
rill and Lovering differ in the distri-
bution of their strength is shown by
the following comparison:
Streneth of_legs......... 954 803 665
Strength of back........ 459 349 410

STILL TRYING COMBINATIONS.
The Panorama of Shifting Crews at
Cornell.
[Correspondence of the Weekly.]
Ithaca, June 5.
While the first University crew was
on its way back to the piers, recently,
the boat struck a sunken pine tree
in the shallows at the head of the Lake
and the sharp end of a broken branch
cut a hole three feet long through the
paper bottom. As the boat filled with
water it sank amidships under the
weight of the men, the ends, filled with
air, rose above the surface and the boat
broke in two. The water of the lake is
still very cold, but the launch reached
the crew before anyone was in distress.
The boat was the one in which the crew
won at Poughkeepsie last year and in
which the second crew defeated Annap-
olis three weeks ago. It was sawed into
nine sections and each man carried off
the part which he occupied during the
Poughkeepsie race. A new paper boat
from Waters had arived the same day,
so there was no interruption of the
practice the next day. The rebuilding of
the aluminum boat has been accom-
plished successfully and the new cedar
boat will be put in the water to-day.
There is no probability, therefore, that
the five crews will lack boats.
The crew that was in the boat when
it was wrecked contained four men
from the third crew, Bentley, Sweet-
land, Crawford and Johnston, who dis-
place Briggs, Spillman, Ludlam and
Moore. The last named man is absent
for two weeks at the civil engineering
camp at Otisco Lake. The Faculty
refused to excuse him from the expedi-
tion and it is felt that it will hardly be
possible for him to regain form after
his return sufficient to warrant giving
him his place in the boat again. He
was one of the strongest and most
reliable men in the crew.
It had been expected that four men
would be changed, but when, the next
day, the crews were shifted still more,
so that it was no longer possible to
name them except by the men who
held the tiller ropes, the uncertain con-
dition of the crews was realized to its
full extent. Fisher’s boat contained the
following men, arranged in this or-
der, beginning with stroke: Bentley,
Savage, Carter, Odell, King, Wake-
man, Bailey and Raymond. Colson’s
boat was manned, beginning again with
stroke, by Johnston, Tatum, Freeborn,
Sweetland, Crawford,. Lueder, Chris-
well, Stamford. Pate’s boat had Briggs
for stroke, and Dalzell, Fuller, Ludlam,
Oddie, Crum, Jeffers and Spillman in
the order named. Fisher’s crew rowed
in good form and beat Colson’s boat
half a length.
On successive days after this stilloth-
er combinations of men were tried in
the poats. Finally, the ’99 crew was
allowed to get together again and was
sent against a crew stroked by Bentley,
with the following men behind him:
Savage, Spillman, Tatum, Freeborn,
Ludlam, Chriswell, Crum. The so-called
Second Crew beat them out at least
ten lengths in three miles, and the first
Freshman crew, which entered the race
a mile from the start, finished seven
lengths ahead of the disheartened vete-
rans.
It seems as if all the combinations
possible have been tried, and the im-
pression is becoming general that it
will be necessary to send last year’s
Freshman crew to Poughkeepsie to
represent the University in June.
Whatever the cause, the deterioration
of the Poughkeepsie crew has been
marked and consistent, and even those
who have had most faith in them have
been forced to admit that it was useless
to wait longer for improvement. On
Tuesday of this week the expected
weeding-out occurred. All of last year’s
University crew, except one, were in-
formed that if they desired to appear
at the boathouse and help make up a
pacing crew they would be welcome,
but that they need no longer cherish
ambitions of rowing at Poughkeepsie.
The exception is Savage. Bentley is
also retained and Colson will hold the
tiller-ropes.
Four crews have been on the lake this
week. The first Freshman crew is
showing improvement and the Annapo-
lis crew, the University crew now, con-
tinues to improve. No. one is allowed
in the launch and no times are an-
nounced. The crew can undoubtedly
row a great race for three miles, but
much doubt is felt among those who
know most about the crews whether a
crew averaging only 161 pounds can
hold their speed on the last mile. The
general feeling is one of regret that it
took second from scratch.
was necessary to discard the older and
heavier men. While every one expects
the crew to make a good showing, the
chances of winning the race are felt to
be not so good by many points as they
were a month ago. The following is
the present make-up:

The Yale Crew.
It is as well to confess that the New
London letter to the Weekly, written
for this week, was lost in transit to the
printers in some inexplicable way. In
the absence of the fuller reports of that
letter, it is possible to say that the crew
is in good order, rowing in the same
order as hitherto, and getting as much
practice on the Thames as bad weather
will permit. The aim is now to improv-
the catch, which, it is now generally ad-
mitted, is not vicious enough.
