YALE-COLUMBIA ROW FRIDAY AT NEW HAVEN 33 g R For First Time in Nearly Forty Years —Both Have -Good Crews. Two of the most polished crews that. ever sat in shells will fight it out over a mile and seven-eighths course: in New -Haven harbor ' ne: Friday afternoon, when the varsity eights of Columbia and Yale come to- % | gether for the first time in nearly forty years. But what perhaps, is more interesting, -is the fact that these two 'smooth combinations are working on diametrically opposite lines as regards both rowing and rigging. Columbia’s stroke is smoother, -more wheel-like one part running into the next without the semblance of a hitch or.pause, while Yale’s to a cer- tain extent is cut up into sections. This smoothness of the New .Yorkers is’a strong point which Rice always imparts to his pupils and it is a big factor in speed production. But Guy Nickalls has taught his men to row uniformly. A After the great work ‘of the Yale crews last spring everyone expected to.see a rattiing good crew, but it is even better than the high standard looked for. The eight men are big, powerful fellows, and, as was the case with the last two.Yale crews, the first -and most. forcible point to strike one is the tremendously hard heave and drive, which-is most effectively done. Yale is the longer in:the water of the two for three reasons. The éwing in the Yale boat is”a bit greater at either end of the ' stroke, than is Columbia’s and, while Rice’s men slide nineteen inches on the average, the Dark Blue oarsmen move a couple of inches further on _their seats. Also, the placement of the hands gives Yale a longer reach. Like most of the Poughkeepsie crews taunght by professionals, the Columbia men row with the hands close together—touch- ing, in fact—while Yale has a hand's breadth between them. Undoubtedly the former method makes for more leverage, but it shorten ths reach. Yale's plan of placing the inside hand nearer the rowlock allows of a greater arc of a circle toward the stern with the hand end of the oar. While the inside hand grasps the oar | firmly. Nickalls has taught his men to use the fingers of the outside one deftly in order to get all there is in the reach. Two other advantages are a better control of the oar and a less contracted chest at all stages of the stroke. Neither has the advantage in keep- ing an even keel. Yale recently did a piece in vey rough water and going with the wind—the hardest kind of rowing—and the sheil might have been a canal boat as far as any rolling ‘was apparent. When the boat goes off the keel power goes out of the men. YALE’S PREPARATION FOR PRINCETON GAME. Tom Shevlin Developing an’ Entirely New Offensive Plan. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 8. — The small army of Yale football coaches, headed by Tom Shevlin as flield mar- Shal, today began final preparation for the Princeton and' Harvard games. Despite the defeat by Brown, the Blue showed ‘Considerable improvement over Plevious “ games, although a great amount of work remains to be done in order to whip the eleven into a team that “will ‘approach the EN standard. '+ | Today’s practice;consisted of two hours of signal werk, to:accustom the team to’ the entlrely .new - offensive plan adopted by Sheviin. . ‘Scoyil’ has a~fractured thumb, and Otis Guernsey played-fullback.

BROWN HERALD TAKES STAND Says Position on - Summer Baseball Coureageous Step in Advancement. The . wide interest called forth by the suspension of Le Gore at Yale, and the dispute over the case. of George Brickley, of the Trinity elev- en, have served to focus attention on the eligibility clause which . permits summer baseball playing by Brown Uniyersity athletes. The sentimént among - all Brown men seems undivided in defence .of the positions. of the University, and the Brown Daily_Herald” says ed- itorially that Brown need not fear the criticism that has been brought upon Yale as the result of an obso- lete rule which can pever be entire- ly ‘enforced. ~ “The Herald” asserts that ‘- Brown’s stand on the question of summer baseball is a courageous 'step in advance of ‘the position which other colleges and _universities are trying to maintain. The editorial also contends that the graduates of other universities which are at ' present engaged in a vain attempt to maintain ‘“simon” pure” athletics ‘are in favor of the Brown platform and’ are working for a similar step at_their own colleges.

The coaches in a statement issued today. declared he had automatically ceased to be a mem- ber of the squad when he refused to accompany the team to Boston. TIGERS COMMENCE PREPARING FOR .YALE BULLDOG All Players in Good Condition Except Gennert. 3 Ve e + Princeton, N. J., Nov. 8.—The Princ- ton football squad returned today from Atlantic City, where the plavers had been resting since the Harvard game and immediately started prac- tice for the Yale contest. - With the exception of Genmert, all the players are in good . condition. Gowan:and Butterworth were both used at center. None of ‘the men ‘who were in the Harvard. game were in the scrimmage today, confining their. work to handl- ing the ball and forwad passing ,while Tibbott practiced drop-kicking.

Speedy Rush was not good enough to make football team in his un- |’ degraduate - s while Frank Hinkey ‘was one of the greatest ends that ever pulled ‘on a.Yale jersey. A careful study of the records of the two elevens coached by these-gridiron instructors this season would lead to the opinion that the fates were balancing the ac- counts of previous years. . = BRICKLEY, SATURDAY. | used ‘both -hands Football Authorities Have So Notified Cohn, Nov. 8—The 'Trin- foot! orities” have announ; “of ‘which day, ‘dn. “l'efl tu.Cofmbhd_-'.:fii much 114-1-2, 7 Matched, . 15, ., h;‘sue baseball astatned. aioss of 335,900 reparation for its contest with Mich- ; passenger cars, wo: 652,000, Jean mext Saturday..

JOE RIVERS OUTPOINTED B BY JOHNNY DUNDEE. in a Ten Round No-Decision Contest at Milwaukee. Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 8.—Johnny Dundee, New York lightweight boxer, outpointed Joe Rivers of California, by a slite shade in a ten round no-de- cision boxing contest tonight, accord- ing to a majority of local sporting writers. Some patrons thought the bout a good draw. The contest was furious from the start. Dundec’s principal attack was directed to the body while Riters met the New Yorker's jumping blows with left jabs. Dundee appeared to land.a terrible left in the seventh that either caused Rivers to slip or forced him near the floor.
