Carey, the Pittsburgh vctcrun. has

some respects he. may lack
a. trifle of tho quick time
sprint that he had when
he first broke in. but if that is no-
ticeable it is more apparent on the
harm: than in the field.
Probably Roush is a more sensa-
tional fielder than t‘arcy. He has
no superior as a judge of fly halls.
Add to that his speed, which is only
a little short of Corey's. and the
combination is a rare one. In his

‘ NEW YORK. June 10——In the
{fact that the tickets for the Bar-
5 vard-Yale boat race on the Thames
: later in the month are oversubscrib-
led and the fact. that the Western
l‘onferencs has appointed a com-
mittee to draft for consideration a
plan to bring about a. greater num-
ber of football games among mem-
bers of Big Ten colleges may be
found a. text for timely sermon.
As to the Harvard-Yale boat race
it may be i|id that seats on the ob-
.servation trains are annually sold
out. It happens that. this season
both the Crimson and the Blue have .
crews that stand among the best
sights in the country.
llut in years when one or izoth
have combinations that have dem-
iunstrnte’d inferiority in regattas
iiigalnst other crews the demand for
tickets has been practically as great.
' This means chiefly that‘ Yale and
Harvard undergraduates and alumni
are. interested in contests :iinong
crews. or teams. representing these
institutions. irrespective of their
merits. or lack of merits, as demon-
strated in proceeding events. In
other words the element of tradi-
tional rivalry is so strong as to
overshadow everything else.
Can rivalry of this sort be so de-
veloped in the Western Conference
as to include all the representatives
of this organization. This is what
the. committee just appointed will
have to determine. Would a rotat-
ing schedule bring about a health-
ful and popular ultra-Conference
rivalry?
Or would a plan

member of the Big Ten would '
