A Pleasure Trip
Later in the afternoon the Yale
varistv and freshmen crews were tak-
rn out to \V‘hitncy's magnificent yacht
for a cooling cruise down the river.
During the world war probably no
factor was so vigorously stressed as
"mornin"
And Coach Leader has stressed this
same factor continually. while pro-
paring his men for tomorrow's annual
enrountr‘r. As a resun. the Yale
crews that answer to the starting gun
in one of the cottage:
"Yes, We
in the freshman. junior 'varsity and
'vsrsity races will be in the pink or
mental and physical condition.
Harvard's best chance of victory is
centered. in its freshman boat. The
crimson yearling! are admittedly
strongmd Yale expects a hard battle
tomorrow morning in this event.
The junior 'varsity race is also a
toss-up. but Yale figures to win by
five lengths in the 'varsity feature.
The freshman and junior 'varsity
struggles will be rowed upstream to-
morrow morning over a two-mile
course. The 'varslty will be rowed
downstream at four miles at 6 p. m..
daylight saving time.
Harvard won the drawings for posi-
tions in all three races yesterday after-
noon. but .up to a late hour last night
the crimson had not made known its
selections.
There is littleldifference in the lanes
on this river. as the two crews are so
close to each other that the tide bene-
fits each equally.
At Poughkeepsie. where six crewa
are ptraddled across the stream. the
advantage of different lanes is much
more important, as the inside lane is
sheltered from high winds. while the
outside lanes often 'insure better tidal
conditions than those near the High-
lands' bank.

Commerce viguallzes the day when

for a week's regatta.
Two or three crews would compete
every day for two‘ or three days in an
elimination series. the winners to face
the winner of the Yale-Hannrd race
in the grand final.
THIS IDEA APPROXIMATES that
entertained by Princeton rowing men.
Dr. Duncan Spaeth. the Tiger catch.
has steadfastly advocated a week's
regatta in which eastern and western
crews would compete at two miles for

DEMPSEY TO TRY
DOWN STAIRS
Will Use Stomach Blows on
Gibbons, Varied With
Socks on Jaws
GREAT FALLS. Mont. June 22.—
Jack Dempsey went through ten
raunds of not very spectacular work
here yesterday despite the rain which
kept everyone indoors and increased
his chances of the champion's aggre-
vatlng cold which is bothering him.
He promised. however. to be in good
condition for his bout on Independ-
enre Day with Tommv Gibbons at
Shelby. Mont. For the first time he
made the public statement that he
would try to work through Gibbons's
stomach for victory on July 4. If the
stomach proves so much rubber.
Dempsey said. there was always the
Jaw left.
Dempsey showed ,up better in his
defensive work yesterdny‘ than in the
offensive. Against both George God-
frey and Jack Burke. his heavyweight
sparring partners. the champion was
fast and shifty. but'he missed many
punches. The sparring partners. how-
ever. could not land a solid blow , on
Dempsey. Most of Godfrey's blows
skimmed off Dempscy's arms or
’shoulder‘s. or shot past_ his head.
Burke was able to land on Dempsey’s
rstomnch yesterday by slipping
through I. solid left which bore in.
'This particular punch happens to be
one of Glbbons's favorites. and inns-
much' as he is considerably faster
than Burke. it looks. as though he
would have an opportunity to land
with it. unless Dempsey trains to
cover that spot.
Mud Prevents Road Work
Beacuseof the muckey condition of
the roads. the champion eliminated
the usual road work from his sched-
ule yesterday. Callsthenics» and
punching the heavy dummy bags
were substituted. During the after-
noon a partyo frallroad .oi'ficials
helped to fill the gymnasium where
Dcmpbey was working.
A study of the comparative meas.
urements of Dempsey and Gibbons
reveals the fact that the two men
will be more evenly matched than
any two heavyweights who ever .-
tered the ring for a heavyweight
championship bout. Dempsey will
not be more than a quarter of an
inch .taller than Gibbons. and not
more than eight pounds heavier. Gib-
bon's' reported age has been set at
34. but the St. Paul boxer declares he
is really only 29. Dempsey is 28.
Gibbons has a reach of 74 inches. one
inch longer than the champion.

GREAT FALLS, MonL. ,June 22.—
"So that's the world's champion.
Huh!" .
This remark. a world of disdain in
the draw-ling sentence. came from a
weather-tanned. two-gallon batted
gentleman from one of the cattle
ranches near here.
It was occasioned -by the, sight of
Jack Dempsey rolling over and over
on‘the ground as he played with a
husky bulldog. whose delighted barks
showed that he. too. was enjoying the
rough sport. as well as his master.
For Jack Dempsey still is the big
overgrown boy. ready for anything
from climbing a tree to playing prac-
tical Jokes on one of his sparring
partners.
Time has dealt lightly with him
since he took the title away from VVil-
lard on that torrid afternoon in July.
His physique is still the same. He
carries no superfluoys weight. In
fact. it might be better is he ”had a
few more pounds to take of! in the
strenuous weeks that will intervene
before he faces Tommy Gibbons in
the ring.
The spirit of youth is still his most
outstanding characteristic. ,
Life. to Jack. is a frolic from day-
break to dark.
He will not enter on heavy train-
ing for some weeks yet.
He rvends his time playing cards
with his malts who take turns being
beaten. fur Jnv-k is some card player:
in running out to see how the car-
pcnters are coming along with the
new ring for his daily workouts: play-

WESTERN TEAMS
~START FOR HOME
Yanks Shed No Tears as
Last of Invaders
Leave N. Y.
NEW YORK. June fig—The inva-
ion of the East by the “'estern clubs
is history. The outlanders have told-
ed their tents and withdrawn to the
shelter of their own half of the league.
Just so far as the Yankees are con-
cerned. the ‘Westerners are having a
little laugh over the developments of
the last forthnight. In nftecn' games
the Westerners have tossed the Yank-
cs no fewer than eight times. and
there were times when it seemed as
if the Hugmen would nose dive right
out of first pi e. waving the top
round‘to Conni Mack and his as-
tounding Athletics. .
By losing to Detroit the Huggnen
penned the ilnal chapter of their
stand against the invaders on the
home diamond. They won 2 and lost
as m y with the Tigers. won I and
lost 1. to the Browns. lost 8 times in
4 wim‘the Indians as rivals and were
tumbled 2 out of 8 with the \Vhite
Sex. In a homecoming with the Red
Sox they were tumbled around in
scandalous style and lost. a single game
to the Senators. Since leaving Chi-
cage late last month the Yankees
have taken part in 26 games and have
won 18 of them.
This is quite a drop from a pace
that carried the boys to 11 victories
in 20 starta on the road. and yet these
reactions are such a part in baseball
as the furious sports which reuse the
enthusiasm of tans. No one expected
the Yankees to carry (mat the speed
they stained during the conquest of
the West. Miler Huggins. wise little
field general. praised the benencent
source of all blessings. and grabbed
the victories while the grabbing was
good. knowing that Just as the Yank-
ees were running free and loose. they
would come down to a sane gait.
And down they came. with a flat
splash. strange feature of the slump
was that the Yankees did not pill? bid
baseball with regardwto defense and
bone pldys. Far from it. They look.
ed good enough. but their pitchers
wont to smash. and they could not hit
when hits were needed. , Yet some of
the men hit like fiends. Witt. Dustn.
Ruth.~ Pipp and Keusei. from figures
available. slammed the ball to all cor-
ners of the lot. but not when the hits
meant anything. 'It is easily conceive~
able that a man mightiest! the league

onstrate, problems. _
