A. to Meet Bulkeley Alumni in Show ‘Here June 8. New Haven, Conn., May 29.—Yale's varsity crew' which will row against Harvard Saturday evening had time trials over the Housatonic course yes- terday. No figures were given out. The Crimson crew will be on the water late today in a shell loaned by Yale. The course has been buoyed and stakes driven at the start and finish lines, on the banks. Quite a few Yale men are expected to go to the river each day to see the practice rows. Hotel reservations here already in- dicate that many Yale graduates and Harvard supporters will be here for the Yale-Harvard baseball game and the race. Arrangements for the race are few and simple, while opportunities for seeing the event are unlimited. The race, of two miles, will be down stream, the’ finish being half a mile above’ Derby. The best point from which to see the last mile, and finish, is from the Shelton side of the river. A mile above the finish line there is a high point on the bank from which the en- tire course may be seen. This is easily reached by leaving the highway and crossing the railroad tracks to the bank. The highway on the Derby side fol- lows the course for the entire dis- tance, but it is quite narrow. The race may be seen from the Derby side of the river but the advantages are less than from the Shelton side. To_accommodate those who attend the Yale-Harvard ball game at Yale field scores of trolley cars will be de- spatched from the field as soon as the game ends. It is a forty minute run to the river bank. The state auto- mobile highway parallels the car tracks almost to Derby. Harvard Crew Off For New Haven. Cambridge. Mass., May 29. — The Harvard Univer: crew with coach, trainers, and several members of the faculty left here today for New Ha- ven for the annual race with Yale Sat- urday.

By ar- riving early, the varsity expects to have plenty of time to become accus- tomed to the course on the Housatonic river and the snell will be furnished by the Yale athletic authorities.

INVESTMENT BANKERS the good pastor promptly jasked him ' if he wouldn't ‘preach “just a few words—as a little paseball/sermon—to the boys and the young imen of our congregation.” The athiete, a clean- living and thoroughly religious lad, was somewhat rattled, but finally agreqd fo do the best he could, and briefly spoke about as follows: “Put on the armor of righteousness, my friends. Gird yourself with the chest-protector of right living; lace on the shin pads of /intergrity; suf- round your features 'with the mask of sobriety and thrust your hand deep within the great glave of religion. Then fear not, falter 'not, if the devil hits out a three-bagger the first time up. . Set yourself firmly in the path and guard the home plate with all yvour might -and main. Flinch not, nor yield one inch of ground, as the devil comes a-sliding home. Remem- ber that you are armed and armored with right and honor, and remember, too, that the devil hasn't any spikes upon his hoofs. Then, as he slides in, cry with a great voice, ‘Get thee to the bench, oh Satan,” and fall upon him even as a keg of nails falls upon a ripe tomato. Give him the hard side of the ball and fear mot, for the umpire’s judgment will be unerring and the righteous cause shall win!” And the applause lasted 14 minutes by the clock.
