YATE “ALUMNI WHEKLY 5 University and Freshman Crews. The recent work of the University Crew has been handicapped consider- ably by unfavorable weather. For two weeks most of the practice has been confined to short stretches on the river, but on Monday the four-mile course from the lighthouse was rowed in only fair time. Greenleaf, ’99 S., returned to his place at 7 on Wednesday, May 11, after a two weeks absence, necessitated by an attack of water on the knee, and Niedecken, 1900, was moved back from 7 to 5, supplanting Cross, 1900. Since then the order of the crew has been: Stroke, Williams, 1900; 7,. Greenleaf, 99 S.; 6, Allen, 1900; 5, Niedecken, 1900; 4, Flint, ’99S.; 3, Brock, 1900; 2, Wickes, 1900; bow, Whitney, ’08. In addition to these men, Greenway, 1900, McGee, ’99S., Cross, 1900, sub- stitutes, and Greene, ’99, coxswain, are at the training table and have been measured for suits. : Mr. Willis, who is assisting Mr. Leh- mann in coaching the Harvard oars- men this season, watched the work of the eight from the launch on Friday, and on Monday, P. H. Bailey, ’97, cap- tain of last year’s Crew, was with Mr. Cook. The Freshman crew, after two weeks of rather indifferent work, have shown considerable improvement within the last few days. There is still, however, an apparent lack of snap in the work, probably due to the fact that the boat as now made up includes too many heavy men. The men on the second crew have been doing good work, and it is expected that some of them will be tried in -the first boat after the Spring Regatta. The two eights have met in a number of brushes on the harbor, with varying success. On Saturday a race was rowed over a mile and a half course, to determine which of the crews should represent the class in the Spring Regatta, and the first crew won by less than a length. The present order of the first boat is: Bow, Patterson, 1901; 2, Thomas, 1901; 3, Gillette, 1900 S.; 4, Stillman, 1901; 5, Mon- tague, 1900S.; 6, Brown, Igor; 7, Auchincloss, 1901; stroke, Keppleman, 1901. These men and Atkinson, 1901, ‘substitute, and Chittenden, 1901, cox- swain, are at the training table and have been measured for suits. a rs Publishers’ Notes on the War. One of the most convenient of the many forms of war maps is that issued by the Boston Herald. It is very clear and gives Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phillippine Islands in considerable de- tail. It can be secured by a request enclosing a two cent stamp for postage. Leslie's Weekly is, of course, paying special attention to the pictorial fea- tures of the present war and illustrat- ing it in the most interesting way. It makes the offer to send the Weekly to any address from now until the first of October for $1.00. This, the pub- lishers believe, will more than include the history of the war.

The past week has been spent by the Yale men of Battery A at Niantic in perfecting the drills, but as neither the horses nor sabres have arrived for them, complete work cannot be accom- plished.

At the time of this writing there is no official confirmation of the report. Six more Yale men have volunteered to fill the places of dropped privates in platoons A and B of the Light Artillery.
