CHANGE IN YALE BIGHT.
Crew Will Be a Heavy One—Seniors
Well Represented.
An important change was made in
the Yale Crew last week, when Cross
and Brock, Seniors, were put in the
boat, displacing Auchincloss and Mit-
chell, two Juniors, who had been row-
ing at 5 and 2 respectively. Cross took
the seat at 5, and Brock at 4:.. Wickes,
who has been rowing at 4 since Easter,
was moved to 2, as he is a lighter man
than Brock. The order of the Crew
now is: Bow, Atkinson, 1901; 2, Wickes,
1900;. 3, -Niedecken, 1900; 4,. Brock,
1900; 5, Cross, 1900; .6, Capt.. Allen,
1900; 7, Blagden 1901 S.; 8, Cameron,
1901. It will be seen that five of the
Crew are Seniors, a larger proportion
of the graduating class than has won
seats in the boat for many years. The
Crew as stated above, if no further
changes are made, will be a heavy one,
and will go into the race probably
averaging over 170 pounds. :
CAMPUS DISTURBANCE
Faculty Amend Omega Lambda Chi
Celebration.
The Yale College Faculty took up
the question of the Dewey Day distur-
bance at its meeting last Thursday. It
was decided not to further interfere
with Freshman athletics for this year.
While the matter of Campus distur-
bances was under. consideration, it was
voted to request the students to give
up the Thermopyle part of Omega
Lambda Chi celebration. This feature
of the Omega Lambda Chi celebration
has developed within the last decade.
After the buildings have been cheered,
the uppers classmen form in two long
lines with a narrow passage way be-
tween, extending out from Phelps Gate-
way. The Freshmen have then been re-
quired to run the gauntlet. Of course,
the only idea is to maul them as much
as possible, and the idea of the Fresh-
men has been to get through with as
little mauling as possible. There have
been very few, if any, injuries of conse-
quence, but the opportunities have been
large. It was felt by the Faculty that
this part of the celebration threatened
the continuance of the whole thing, be-
cause it developed violence and prom-
ised sooner or later serious injury. It
was not a part of the original celebra-
tion, or necessary to it.

YALE PLAYS,
Initial Performance by Dramatic As-
sociation Next Week.
The Yale Dramatic Association, which
was organized during the Winter, will
give its initial performance at the Hy-
perion Theatre, Wednesday evening,
May 23, in*two plays, “The Second
Shepherd’s Play” and a new dramati-
zation of Chaucer’s “Pardoner’s Tale.”
The Association has been rehearsing for
the past six. weeks and _ everything
should run smoothly by Wednesday
evening. The actors have been handled
by Mr. Frank Lea Short, member of the
Faculty of the School of Dramatic Arts
of New York, and a Manager for Mr.
Charles Frohman.
“The Second Shepherd’s Play” is
taken from the Townley Cycle of Plays,
dated about 1400, and deals with the
announcement to the shepherds of the
nativity of Christ, but while there is a
religious tone throughout, there is a
large element of the humorous in the
Schools.
