Mr. Mudde- man is well known in Norwich, having a large list of friends who although they are sorry to see him leave Nor- wich, are pleased to learn of -his re- sponsible position just secured. 4 Mr. Muddeman has just ' retarned from overseas where he served for several months in France and later went into Germany with the army -of occupation. Shortly before bis being sent back to the United States he was taken sick with pneumonia. This ac- counts for his early return home from German territory. He was a member of a field hospital of a sanitay train and was flept principally in his- own profession in that unit. As Thursday was the feast of Cor- pus Christi it will be celebrated by the parish of the Sacred Heart church to- morrow (Sunday) immediately after high mass, with a procession of the Blessed Sacrament. The procession will start at the church and will pro- ceed to Adolphus Benoit's on Hunt- er's avenue. Father Bellerose will lead the procession carrying the Conse- crated Host and will be followed by the various Catholic societies and school pupils of the parish school. The school year at the parochial school was brought to a close yester- day (Friday). It has been decided, however, to hold the graduation ex- ercises next week and either Wednes- day or Thursday evening will be chosen. Mr. and Mrs. George Grant and daughter Ruth, Were present at the boat race yesterday( making the trip in their automobile. KEPT TELEPHONE BUSY INQUIRING ABOUT RACE From seven o'clock on Friday even- ing until after ten The Bulletin office telephone kept up a steady jingle and it was a sure bet that the person at the other end of the line wanted to know who won the boat race. Not only did the men seek information, but a large proportion of the calls were from women enthusiasts. One person wanted know who won the game, another who was ahead. When told the results of the race some remarked “Isn’t that fine!” others “That's too bad!” and still others gave way to their joy so far as to yell into the phone “Hurrah!” Of course the man in The Bulietin office either sympathized or rejoiced with his fair inquirer. SUDDEN THUNDER STORM BREAK MONTH’S DROUGHT A month of dry weather was broken Friday when a thunder storm with a sudden downpour of rain -arrived -in the city just before noon. For about twenty minutes the rain came down in sheets, accompanied by several cracks of thunder, with the rain gradually tapering off till it stopped and the rest of the afternoon was clear. The last previous rain of any conse- quence was on May 21-22, Between then and now it has rained only once, which was on June 9th, when the fall ‘was only .22 of an inch.

Yale gained the Thames regatta pres- tige at dusk ¥Frida¥y, defeating Har- vard in the .four-mile varsity .evént by a scant half length of open water after one' of the bitterest aquatic struggles ‘eveér staged on the - historic waterway from Gales Ferry to the New. London ‘drawbridge. For more than a miile and a half the two knife- like racing craft’ paced side by side under the propulsion of the powerful strokes of the oarsmen and so close were théy aligned that the official timers could not detect a fraction of a second difference at the various half mile flags. It was not.until the two mile posts were reached that the Blue blades could drive the bow of their shell even a few feet ahead of that of ‘the Crim- son but onee this advantage was gain- ed the Harvard crew, rowing with dogged determination and gameness seldom .seen in_such four mile. races, was unable to creep back into a tie, let alone shove their bow into the lead. The Cambridge crew made - | desperate attempt to turn defeat into victory half a mile from the finish and for a moment picked up a trifie of the distance, but Yale answered with a spurt which slowly drew them away as the Crimson oarsmen, exhausted by their eforts, rolled on their slides and slowly lost headway with the fin- ish posts almost within their reach. Breaks Tie in Series. Friday night the Yale adherents were celebrating the victory with more than usual ardor for the defeat of Harvard in the feature event of the regatta, the first to be rowed since 1916, has more than the ordinary sig- nificance. The victory breaks the tie which has existed since the last big race, when Harvard by sweeping the river, won her 25th big race and drew even with Yale in the series of inter- the early fifties, This 51st regatta was marked by other features for while Harvard crews won the §wo preliminary contests row- ed earlier. in the day, it remained for Yale to capture the four mile row with a crew coached by amateur from an equally powerful eight prepared vy a veteran professional water man who has been a fixture at Cambridge for years. Yzle Stamina Wor. 8o £:lght was the differen:: in 10w- ing form and ability of the twa crows, however, that it is a’'general opirion among expert rowing autherities that there is honor and to spare for: both the members of the winning and los- ing crews and. their respective coaches, Professor Mather Abbott and William Haines. - Close ‘analysis of the performances of the two eights show that Yale held to:a trifle higher stroke which was whipped through the water with just a little more power than that of Harvard and in the gruelling last half mile had more reserve stam- ina with which to stand off ‘the last desperate challenge of the Crimson. Although ‘rowed almost two hours after the official :starting time, which had been set for 6 p. m., the race was contested under ideal conditions from the standpoint of the oarsman al- though the rapidly waning light de- prived the spectators on the observa- tion trains of a clear view of the crews for more than half the distance from start to finish. In other respects the setting for the régatta was as perfect as in any of the pre-war con- tests. Both shores of the Thames were lined with knots of spectators who occupied -every point: of vantage along the four mile stretch while long observation trains freighted to the limit, steamed along with the rac- ing eights, their -canvas-covered gon- dolas appearing in the distance like lines of a caravan trekking across the continent in the days of the '49 gold craze. See Race From German Submarine. Anchored just outside the racing langs were long lines of flag and pen- nant-strung. craft ranging from a small motor boat tn ocean pleasure vachts and there was still & reminder of war in the presence of United tates submarines -and destroyers. yen the Central Powers were repre- sented, for the captured German sub- marine U-III was afoat near ths two- mile mark. It was from her decks close’ awash to the rippling witters of the river that one of the most disan- guishéd European spectators that ever graced a Yale-Harvard regatta wit- nesséd the battle of the varsity blades. Seated on a platform near the bow of the submarine was the crown rincess of Rumania and Chief Justice hite of the United States supreme court, while the crews of some .27 ‘United States submarines gavg a ha- val color which was fully in keeping with the navy yard background. : Scarcely Any Betting. In every other respect the revival of rowing on the Thames after a lapse of three years was with the be:t tra- ditions of this classic regatta. There appeared to be the usual thcusands of a|spectators bedecked with crimson or blue feathers, arm band or toy bal- loons while college pennants, oars and other celebrating paraphernalia were much in evidence, as were the ticket speculators, programme venders and others who Eave become a part and parcel of the annual race ddy. If there was any one feature missing it was the heavy wagering which has marked certain regattas of the past. There was scarcely any betting on the forenoon races. In the main race, while Yale was the favorite at a trifle better than even, what little specula- tion was done was among friends who made no display of the financial backing for the other crew. Harvard Get the Jump. It was close to eight o'clock when the crews were ordered to the line by the referee and already the long shad- ows of the west bank of the Thames were being cast towards mid-river. At the flash of the starting pictol Har- vard caught the water first and leap- ed into a slight lead, but before a quarter mile had been rowed the shells were aligned, not to be separated un- til_near the two mile mark. Yale started with a 34 stroke and| Harvard was two beats lower. Set- tling down fer the leng grind, the ri- val crews’ stroke dropped their beats to the neighborhood of 30 and this was maintained until close to the fin- tsh, when both eights rasied the stroke, Yale finishing at 34 and Har- vard 32, Harvard Weakens at Finish. At the three mile flags, Yale fully a half shell length lead, when Harvard spurted this was cut! dewn temporarily to a few feet but the strain coming at the end of such a driving race was too great fer the Crimson crew te sustain and in the final quarter mile the signs of exhaus tion were plainly visible from the ob- servation trains. The Harvard stroke was reeling on his slide and bow. No. 2, 3 and 4 were plainly in distress. Wilted Oursmen Quickly Revive. In the Yale shell No. 6 was wabbly and went down as the craft drifted under the railread bridge at the finish but he, as well as the wilted Harvard oarsmen, were quickly revived when their stronger crew mates doused had but; them with water. Within less than two minutes the victors and vanquished were lustily exchanging varsity yells in custemary fashion while from shore and trains the sharp bark of the Yale cheering legions drowned out the more redate and measured chorus of Harvard co- horts, proud of the gameness and courage of their defeated but not dis- honored earsmen. The official time of the race by halt miles was as follows: Distance. 1-2 mile mile 1-2 mile mile 1-2 mj mile 1-2 mile ... mile J!c Har\ ard -5 5: 7 eeesto o MAYOR DESMOND ENDORSES AMERICANIZATION DRIVE One of the most enthusisatiz work- ers for the $1000 citizenship fund be- ing raised under the auspicss i the Conna.ticut Woman Suffrage Associa- tion is Mayor J. J. Desmond of Yor- wich, who is a member of one of the teams of volunteer workers actively seeking subsgriptions to the fund. | In a letter. to Mrs. Samuel Russell) Jr, chairman of the state campaign! committee, Mayor Desmond wrote as, follows: “I take pleasure in heartily endors- ing the present movement of your as- sociation to aid in qualifying the wo- men of our state for the proper exer- cise of their coming rights as elec- tors. “Obviously the welfrea of our coun- try and state depends upon sound gov- ernment, and this can exist only so long as the majority of the voters un- derstand and realize the problems re- quiring solution, and honestly and persistently discharge their duties as citizens. “I am fully convinced that in the past serious evils have resulted from the abstention of many conscientious electors from active participation in the really solemn work of securing public servants of integrity, capacity and efficiency, and believe that this the task of overcoming this wrong.” ALUMNAE ORGANIZED AT CONNECTICUT COLLEGE Following the commencement ex- ercises nesday at Connecticut College at New London the mem- bers of the ‘first graudating class held a special meeting for the pur- pose of organizing an alumnae as- sociation. - Officers chosen were as follows: President, Miss Winona Young, | Mansfield = Center; vice president, Miss Marenda Prentis, New London; secretary, Miss Bsther Batchelder, Rocky Hill; treasurer, Miss Ruth K. Trail of Grotou. The officers elected are to act as a committee to draw un the constitu- tion and by laws of fhe assoclation. At § o'clock the class held a picnic ‘lunch on the river bank near the i college boat house. Miss Louise | Howe of Norwich, a member of the | board of trustees and Miss Irene Nye, dean of the college, both honorary members of the class of 1919 attend- cd the official gathering.

The order of exercises follows: March, Dorothy; song, America, all; recita- tions, Flanders Fields, ' John Scott Spencer; The Response, Russell Eu- gene Fisher; Young Fellow My Lad, Helen Kimball; piano, Poeme Erotique to Spring, Grieg: recitation, Concord Hymn, John Henry Whyte; address, Inspector W. board of education, who urged peace- time patriotism. Mr. Dakin spoke of the great help received from rural communities. dur- | ing the two years of war, when the | children’s activities in Red Cross work and other patriotic efforts had the support of parents and friends, and asked those parents and friends now that those activities had ceased to continue their interest in the schools in order to have the schools increase in value, to advance the town as a whole and the individuals in it. He gave a brief sketch of education from the period of the Civil war, when education was a sort of child tendency instead of school teaching, where the parents sent the child to school with his or her chair and books and the committee decorated the buildings at not much expense, and the results were not very satisfactory: but an educa- tion was not compulsory, as it is now. Now every child is required by law to{ g0 to school and the towns must con- sider the cost of an eight-room school, or if the town has only a series of one- room schools, then efforts should be directed towards making them the best kind of one-room schools, with the most efficient teachers, where the chil- dren may be taught how to live and play together so that they can grow up with the same democratic ideals towards betterment of self and com- munity. They should be getting a good stock of common information in the class room and should be imbued with the spirit of thrift, ambition and industry. This work should be carried on by the teachers, who should be well support- ed by the people, not only financially but by favorable comment, by interest in the schoels and by gifts. He spoke about the new step taken in the most progressive communities, the new duty of schools beginning with health inspection. This work, which has been in charge of Miss M. J. Pendleton of Norwich, in Scotland, has been very effective. One of its objects is to see that phy- sical training is effective. Fifty years ago when children could go to school or not, just as they pleased, conditions were different; but now when &chools are for everyone and everyone must go to school, health is a serious mat- ter. Good health is something we all want to have, and ought to have, and it is for this purpose that such a course has been established. The grading and grouping of pupils and classes has done much to advance standards in one-room schools and Mr, Dakin urged the people to contirue the goold work by peace-time patriotism to makeé the schools the rallying peint for the education of the town, where there are no differences of race or creed, but each working for' the good of all. Supervising Agent N. Searle Light of the town spoke te the graduates, cengratulating them on the progress they had made, and advised them to make every effort to continue their ed- S. Dakin of ‘the state| 1 ucntlon hecauae of-the great problems that are to be facel by our nation, when their best will be a necessity in evt:ry town or city in which they lo- cate. Mr. Light :spoké to the parents and friends about the.support they must give the graduates, not financial alone, but moral support, encouragement, helping them to keep up the fight for an education until it is won. | He referred to the‘new bill about to | 80 into effect whereby the state is go- | ing to furnish 75 per cent. of the sal- aries given in towns where the grand list is less than two and one-half mil- | lions of dollars, in order that such| towns can' get the best talent that should be on the teaching staff, as the | future of a community depends greatly | on present-day conditions and ad- vancement. He said Scotland could be | congratulated on the way it stood for | progress and he knew the work would continue. He then presentéd diplomas to Helen Harriet Woodman, John Scott Spencer, | John Henry Whyte and Russell Eugene Fisher, whose ¢lags motto was For- | ward, class colors purple and gold, and class flower, the laurel.
