YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY 371 Changes in the Crew. The Yale Crew has now been rowing a week on the Thames, and several im- portant changes have been made in the boat, during that time, which will prob- ably be permanent. P. L. Mitchell, 1901, at bow has been displaced by G. G. Lincoln, 1902. J. P. Brock, 1900, who has been rowing since Easter at 4, has been moved up to 5, in place of J. W. Cross; 4000,’ Po H.: Kanzie, 72..5.,/ dak- ing Brock’s old seat. Niedecken at 3, and Wickes at 2, suffered somewhat from the change from New Haven to the Ferry, and were kept out of the boat several days, resting. Rough water has kept the Crews pretty closely to Horton’s Cove, and in the upper part of the river, only two time rows having been tried up to the present writing. One of these, made un- der favorable conditions, the latter part of last week, was fairly good. The Crew is still a long way from smooth- ness in form, and the changes have added to the difficulties of getting into perfect trim before the 28th. Every preparation is being made by the railroads to carry great crowds to see the races. The Central Vermont, the old observation route, has this year built and equipped an entirely new observa- tion train, with comfortable seats, in which passengers can be protected from sun or rain. ~<a — Mr. Hendrie’s Gift. In response to a circular letter re- cently sent out to a number of the grad- uates by the Yale Young Men’s Chris- tian Association, asking for contributions to support the now much enlarged work of the Association, a check for five hun. dred dollars was received in return mail from Mr. John W. Hendrie, Yale 51, of South Beach, Conn. This adds to a long list of Yale benefactions of which Mr. Hendrie has been the source in the last few years. He was the larg- est giver for the Law School building, his gifts amounting to about $65,000. He also gave very liberally to the build- ing fund of the Yale Mission. bb. 2 at Exeter Wins the Meet. Phillips Exeter Academy won the In- terscholastic Track Meet at Soldiers Field, Cambridge, by a score of 26 points. Phillips Andover was second with 21% points. More details of the meet will appear in the School Corre- spondence of the next issue. <i Ge th ae An Alumni Weekly Dinner. A dinner was given by the ALUMNI WEEKLY to a number of Yale men at the New Haven House June 6. A rec- ord of those who attended and a short account of the dinner will be given in another issue. > ee A Business-Like Letter from a College.

The report of the Yale Dramatic As- sociation, which is soon to be published, will show, that although the expenses of the recent productions were large, being in all over $1,200, there is only a $40 deficit. If all dues can be collected this deficit will be reduced to $15, which is considered a very satisfactory situation, by the officers of the Association. Another year the general feeling is that a good surplus will be found in the treasury. > <>, > a a Nineteen Hundred and One Cup Men.
