Harvard’s View of It. {Harvard Bulletin Editorial.]} The annual four.mile race with Yale at New London on Thursday last re- sulted in the defeat of the Harvard Crew, after a most plucky and well fought struggle. The Yale Crew was a fast one; a faster one, indeed, than Yale has sent to New London for a good many years, and the New Haven university has good right to be proud of it. While Harvard was beaten let us not forget that the defeat was not with- out honor. Storrow, Higginson, Hard- ing; these names will go down in our gm _boating history equally honored with those who have borne the Crimson to victory. To the coach who, confronted with a grave crisis at the eleventh hour, turned courageously to do the best that could be done, too much praise and credit cannot be given. We accept the defeat, but we cannot forget the spirit of those men of Harvard at New Lon- don in the Spring of 1900; for it is prophetic of what has been coming to full growth these ten years past; the winning Harvard spirit. ee A Description of the Race. The account of the Yale-Harvard races in Harper’s Weekly of July 7, written by Albert H. Barclay, Yale ’o1, includes a very interesting and intelligent analysis of the two strokes used, with a brief summary of the .contest. The article is accompanied by an unusually fine illustration of the finish of the race, showing the line of yachts, the two crews and the official boats follow- ing, th din he a até JQHN A.
