Tale captured- - the first two races In the annual regatta with Harvard over the historic Thame River course this morning by winning1 the wo-mll- o Freshman contest by ono' length and crossing the flnlsfi line in iflrst place In the Junior varsity eight, one and one-hA- lf lengths ahead of their op ponents. , The .official time for tho freshman race was: Yale, 10.03 5; Harvard, 10.06.

Both crews WDre using a 38. stroke, AVtho mile mark Uie college lads were on eyon terms. Yale pulled ahead after this point had been passed and, using a strong stroke during the last half mile emerged victor. The Junior varsity eight was prac- tically a repetition of the first race. Harvard ' led by a slight margin at the mile mark, but tho Ell oarsmen, putting their utmost endeavors behind every stroke, pulled up to even terms three-quarte- rs of a mile from lurme, passed. Vhc Harvard representatives apd crossed the finish line by a safe hmrgln. The wind had died away somowhat before the junior varsity eights got tho starting signal fit 11.31 A. M. Tlie start of the second race was similar to tho opening ovent. Roth strokes hit up n stroko well into the forties nnd for a few lengths tho prow of tho Harvardj)hcH showed In front. Then the drlvo of the Yale blades began to count and slowly tho bluo craft, slid to the front, never, to be headed. At tho half-mll- o flags, the Ell shell was leading by a third of a length and nt tho end of tho first mllo had Increased tho distance to u scant half length.

(Copyright. 1920.) The veil of doubt concerning the McAdoo candidacy is lifting. Friends of tho former Secre- tary of the Treasury have formed militant organization determined to nominate him over Ills own protest Telegrams arc coming to several of these men to stop tholr activity and tako Mr. McAdoo at hla word, but they are unavailing. Indeed, .the latter Is reliably re- ported to have told Senator Glass In a oonfcrenee-l- 'pw York lust wees; that If hla nariio' Wero presented for nomination, tho Virginia Senator was authorized to ay it was being done- - Without Ills consorrt or sanc tion. Nevertheless, Senator Glftss . is openly (or McAdoo's nomination and will make a fight for it. Tho story told by men In tho confident of Mr. McAdoo bears out thb reasons given publicly by the former Director Gen- eral of Railroads. They say he has considered tho question from every ungle und that ho has a horror of having the \crown prince\ argument nnd criticism of a similar vein con cerning his relationship with Presi- dent Wilson flung at him and his family during a political campaign. MRS. McADOO STRONGLY OP- POSES HIS NOMINATION. They declare, moreover, that Mrs, McAdoo has been consistently op- posed to thn return of hor husband to public life. She knows the extent to which public and private, criticism, together with the almost superhuman burdens of the Whlto House Itself, can Interfere with personal comfort und happiness her own father broke down in health and her mother died while In tho White House. Every friend of MoAdoo hero says he is thoroughly sincers In his dis- inclination to run for ofllcn. Why nominate htm then? To that question comes the uniform anuwer from these same McAdoo men ithat In a time like thhi personal tastes or convenience cannot out- weigh the duty that a man may owe to his party at)d his country. They are absolutely determined that Mc- Adoo Is tho man of the hour and (Continued on Eighteenth Page.)
