Life ‘c1assv 40 627'1$ MOHS NYO LI PALL REGATTA. Rowed on Lake Whitney, Won by 1902. and The annual Fall Regatta of the Yale Boat Club was held at Lake Whitney on Saturday afternoon. The course was seven-eighths of a mile with the finish at the lower bridge. Only three crews were entered, the Junior, Sophomore and Freshman. The first race was be- tween 1900 and 1901, and was won by the latter by about a length. After some delay the second race was rowed, the competitors being the winner of the first race and the 1902 crew. The Freshman boat had a handicap of two lengths and were able to keep the lead throughout the race, winning by over a length. No official time was taken, but the approximate time for the first race was 5 minutes and 48 seconds and for the second race 5 minutes and 32 sec- onds. The time was slow owing to a heavy wind. A banner will be given to the winning crew. - The following men served as officials: Referee, J. T. Whittlesey, 67 S.; time- keeper, E. F. Gallaudet, ’93; starter, W. E. S.

The following men were nominated on the preliminary ballot: Messrs. Edwards, Judd, Yaggy, Hoppin, Ber- ger, Wright, Wear, Richardson, Moody, and Twichell. The following were elected: Richard Henry Edwards, Lisle, N. Y.; Paul Dwight Moody, East Northfield, Mass.; Allan Harvey Richardson, Waterbury, Conn.; and Alfred Parks Wright, New Haven, Conn. The General Secretary. Henry Burt Wright, the new General Secretary of the College Y. M. C. A., is the eldest son of Dean Henry P. Wright, ’68, and was born in New Haven, January 209th, 1877. He was prepared at Hillhouse High School in this city and entered Yale with the Class of Ninety-Eight. He immediately identified himself with the religious life of the College, and throughout his entire course gave a large share of his time and efforts to the work of the Yale Young Men’s Christian Association. He was one of the members of the Re- ligious Committee of his class in Fresh- man year and the next year was elected one of its four deacons: In his Senior year he was elected President of the Y. M. C. A. and under his administration the Association passed one of tthe most successful years since its organization. Mr.. Wright has left behind him in College, a brilliant record in other lines also. He won the Woolsey Scholar- ship in his Freshman year, and was one of the speakers at the Junior Exhibition and at the Deforest Prize Speaking. He won besides a number of other prizes, and notwithstanding the numer- ous claims upon his time, he graduated HENRY B. WRIGHT, 08. second in his Class. He brings to his present position not only the thorough- ness and earnestness and the personal qualities which made him one of the most prominent men in his Class, in matters social as well as intellectual, but a thorough training in the work of the Association and a clear understand- ing of its needs. The Y. So AR which has come to play so important a part in Yale life, is fortunate in secur- ing a man so thoroughly in touch with the undergraduates, and so ably equipped to continue the steady growth which the Association has made under his predecessors.
