Rowed on Lake Whitney,

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.

Sophomore Class Deacons.
A meeting of the Sophomore Class
was held in the Auditorium of Dwight
Hall, on Oct. 17, for the election of
Class Deacons. .
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

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.
