READY FOR YALE
Dual Regatta on Schuylkill To
morrow; Time Trials at
Different Hours
t
i Philadelphia, April 2. —Penn and
; Yale crews which will compete in the
: I dual regatta to-morrow afternoon on
I the Schuylkill river took two .strenuous
I workouts yesterday. Each coach gave
his men time trials in the forenoon
and hard, steady work In the after
noon. Neither coach would tell the
i time made in the trial. Yale's varsity
beat the junior varsity about two
lengths over the course of a mile and
550 yards, over which to-morrow's race
will be decided, in the morning trial,
while Penn's first crew also showed
marked superiority over the juniors.
Again the rival crews rowed at differ
ent hours, so the men had no oppor
tunity of trying each other out.
Each coach gave his crews about five
miles morning and afternoon, making
ten miles for the day's work. Each
still professes to be confident of the re- j
suit, although Vivian Nickalls, Penn's
coach, talks with more confidence than |
does his brother Guy, who is Yale's in- I
structor.
The average weight of the Yale!
varsity is given as 176 pounds, and!
that of tho second eight at 174 pounds, j
SERIES FOR RAILROAD TEAMS j

Nearly Half Million
Words in English
Our Language Borrows Profusely and
Vocabulary Multiplies Rapidly
"The English vocabulary has grown
to great size," says Professor Clark S.
[Xorthup, of Cornell University, one of
! the editors of The New Universities
Dictionary now being distributed by
this paper exclusively to its readers;
"The number of words found in Old
English literature does not exceed
thirty thousand; recent dictionaries
have listed more than four hundred
thousand, mostly of foreign origin.
iYet most writers use mainly English
! words.
"Shakespeare used ninety per cent,
of English words; tho English Bible
contains ninety-four per cent.; Milton
eighty-one per cent.; Addison eighty
two per cent.; Tennyson eighty-eight
per cent. Most of our shortest and
simplest words are of native origin.
"If any language comes into close
contact with another, there is likeli
hood of word-borrowing. English is
one of the most cosmopolitan of
languages. From the French it began
to borrow even before the Norman
conquest; after that, as intercourse
with France increased, it borrowed
heavily from the Norman and Parisian
French. Many Spanish and Italian
words have come In as a result of com
mercial activity."
Floods ot coupons continue pouring
In for The New Universities Diction
ary. The distributing clerks are kept
busy. The publishers have been or
dered to keep a big supply bound and
ready for emergency calls. It looks as
though the raid on the supply would
soon make a replenishment necessary.
Such a rush was not expected but this
paper Is greatly pleased to see read
ers taking such enthusiastic advan
tage of its educational offer.
