HARVARD WINS IN TWO HARD FOUGHT RACES Harvard won both the freshman and the second varsity two-mile races on Friday morning on the Thames river course, by the narrow margin of a dozen feet. Both races were marked by spectacular spurts in the last few rds, after the boats had hung close to each other all the rest of the two miles. In the freshman race, rowed at 10.30, Harvard had the advantage of the start and drove away under a 32 stroke, while Yale set her pace at 34. Harvard, in spite of her slower stroke forged ahead and soon had a half length the advantage. Yale put a lit- tle more power into her swing and pulled up slightly. Both crews drop- ped their strike slightly and Yale be- gan to fall back. At the mile flag Harvard was three-quarters of a length in the lead and pulling a strong steady stroke. Yale made a magnificent bid for the race in the last 100 vards. Both crews were pulling down from 36 to 37, but of of Gager of faster and cut down Harvard’'s lead until there seemed a chance that vie- tory might be snatched from defeat.

Yale soon went back to 34 and her shell gained until it was difficult to tell which was ahead, as| the angle changed from the observ tion train. Almost at the finish Harvard made a gallant spurt and while the rain dashed down on the shoulders of the tired oarsmen the line was crossed and Harvard's second victory of the day was won a narrow margin.

Within a day or two, it is believed, the trolleymen of the Shore Line Elec- tric Railway company will know whether they will have the sanction of . the Amalgamated Association for a strike to enforce the demands they have presented to the Shore Line Co. for a higher wage schedule. Officials of. the trolleymen’s union would have nothing to say Friday night when questioned as to the prev- alent rumor, that there had .been-a unanimous _ vote for a strike, and President Robert W. Perkins of the Shore Line said the company had been given no notice from the employes that a strike was to be called. He ra- ther thoughts, he said, that there would be no strike as at the last conference between the road officials and the committee from the employes, the at- titude seemed to show a desire to reach a settlement without resort to extreme measures, and there was a proposition now being worked out which seemed to promise a settlement —_— DR. BROPHY IN LUCK SEEING THE BOAT RACE Of all the Norwich people . who travelied down Military Highway Fri- day afternoon in their automobiles to see the Yale-Harvard varsity race, it would be hard to beat Dr. E. Bro- phy for luck. The doctor is an en- thusiastic Yale man, anyway, as all his friends know, so that his cup of: Joy would have been full just to have the Blue win, but when he was able to move down the line in his machine tbreast of the two struggling crews the whole distance, nothing could have been finer. It all happened quite by chance. Hun- dreds of automobiles were lined up, one after the other, along Military Highway, just below Gales Ferry, where a fine view of the start could be had. When the pistol cracked and the two eights dug into the water, the line of machines on the bank began to move along with the racing shells, and there was Dr. Brophy’'s machine in the regular observation train po- sition right abreast of the struggling oarsmen. Following along for the four miles, he had the crews under his eye all the time, and said that he knew almost from the start that Yale would win. CHARLES S.

Brown who investigated the matter said that from the testimony it wasy evident that Mr. Lang did all he i could to prevent the accident and that | it was unavoidable. The Storms child at the time of the accident was pulling a little girl in an express wagon and instead of going directly across the road hesitated and then ran directly in front of the ma- chine which Mr. Lang had driven six or eight feet on to the grass at the side of the road to avoid hitting the child.

Cottrell & Son (o, Stonington, em- ployer. and Samuel A. Sanders, of Westerly, employe, little toe of left foot badly jammed, at rate of $13.30. between the ‘company and the ployes.’ The initial demand of the employes was for an eight-hour day with max- imum pay at the rate of 60 cents, which would be graded down to other rates, according to years of service. The answer of the company, it is un- derstood, was that they could not af- ford to grant such an increased rate and that they were in such a finan- cial position they'could only continue at the old rates. Following the receipt of this answer, it is reported, that a strike vote was| taken, and is all read) to be enforced if it is given sanclion by the Amal- gamated Association of Street Rail-| way Employes, one of whose national officers is expected here early next week. Early this week it was rumored that boat race day would probably be se- lected as the date for the strike, but it is understood this could not be carried out because the vote could not be| taken in time. em- LIEUT.
