Harvard Training Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 6--Harvard's time over the downstream four-mile course today was 29 seconds faster than Yale's time this afternoon upstream with a following wind. The Eli shell covered the course in today's time trial in 20 minutes, 12 seconds, with tide conditions not as favorable as those under which the Crimson made their record of 19 minutes, 43 2-5 seconds. Coach Whiteside was extremely pleased with the Harvard showing, the fastest early trial time chalked up in several years.

Last night the Freshman lineup was changed, and today the yearling crew took the river in the following seatings: bow, L.C. Farley, Jr.: 7, H.F. Atherton, Jr.; 6, W.S. Burton; 6, W.W. Prout; 4, R.D. Kernan; 3, R.S. Clarke: 2. R.S. Wolcott; stroke, Arthur Beane; coxswain, H.K. McVickar. The first-year men confined their activities to long paddles, rowing six miles this morning and eight miles this afternoon.

The Varsity time trial was held at noontime today, when the pelting rain had provided ideal tide conditions. The beat was lifted to thirty-three for the last mile and was held there until the finish.
