poets to have Mr.. Willis accompany him.
Mr.. Lehman has recognized that he
made grave mistakes in the coaching of
last years crew, and with characteristic
English pluck has gone to work to remedy
them. One great difficulty that has to be
overcome Is the lack of boating experience
college has in comparison with his Eng
lish cousin. The American boy, in most
cases, sees racing boat for the first time
when he tries for his freshman crew. The
English boy. on the other hand. has rowed
in his fitting school. and if he happens to
come from Eton, Harrow or any of the
great schools where rowing is in vogue, has
had some racing experience and has had
the essentials of rowing thoroughly ground
into him.
Thus it can be easily seen that coaching
an English crew is very simple thing.
Since the men all row in the same style, 1t
is simply a question of getting them to-
gether. 1t is with these facts all in mind
that the famous English coach has gone to
work to retrieve last years mistakes. He
will make no change in the stroke or rig
ging of the boats. ard the crew will he
trained on the same lines exactly as last
year. The training season. however. Will
not be so long or the work. so severe as
the 20 crew underwent There will be no
rowing in the tank nor any long runs. All
the men in college will be called ont for the
class crews in the spring, and from the men
who do best in the class races the varsity
crew will be selected. The varsity crew
will row together for about seven weeks IN
all before the big intercollegiate races.

MANAGER IRWIN AUST EXPLAIN
Meeting Of the Billiard Experts in
New Yok.
CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

The bowling team of Carroll Institute
went to South Washington last night and
played a set of three games on the alleys
of the Washington Athletic Club BY WIN
ming two of the three, the CAROLS moved
into second place in the bowling league
race, the Washingtons dropping to third
The first two contests were uninteresting
CAROLS leading from start to finish and
winning as they pleased. In the last game
the w. A. c. braced up sufficiently to make
the contest interesting, winning out by a
small margin. Martin and Dietz of the
Washingtons both had off nights, leaving
the bulk of the work to the three other
members of the team. Armstrong of &. 1.
was high man for single score making 1870
in the second game, while McCauIly of 243
fame led his side with 175. The only good
team score for the evening was made by
Carroll Institute in the opening game, when
they bowled down 800 pins. The attendance
of spectators was the smallest noted at any
of the league games, the comparative in
accessibility of the alleys no doubt being
responsible
The CAROLS led all the way through the
first event. all of the men bowling steadily
together. the side finishing winners with
ia pins to spare.

club regarding the farming of players. and
Manager Irwin will be given Il hearing to

A Recommendation was made by the
board that the visiting team receive SoC

of a protest by Scranton against Wilkes
barre for failure to pay 500 guarantee for
a game. Wilkesbarre claimed the ground
was too wet but Scranton disputed that

YALE AND CORNELL TO CONFER.
1t is Believed That n Race Can he
Arranged.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. December All
the facts to the negotiations for a race be-
tween Yale and Cornell University crews
nave been made public. The challenge.
which was from Yale, was forwarded to
Ithaca last Saturday, and suggested a race
at New London next spring, a week or ten
days after the Yale-Harvard race at the
same place, an alternative proposition
being that Cornell join with the other two
universities and make a triangular contest,
it being understood. however that Har-
wards consent to this latter plan is yet to
be obtained Cornelrs reply, received yes
terday, was not conclusive, but intimated
desire for a conference. This. it is I'M
derstood Yale is ready to concede
1ale's first obligation called for the COM
pletion of negotiations with Harvard, with
Wnom, by virtue OF a five years agree
ment, she was bound to race For the
Yale-Harvard race the New London course
was unhesitatiEgly named, and imme-
diately after this point had been settled
ale prepared her challenge to Cornell, nat
urally naming the Thames as the course
Yale will go to the proposed conference pre-
pared to extend to Cornell the most sports
manlike courtesies, and believing that the
Comedians will meet them in similar
spirit. Yale desires a race with Cornell and
such contest is so far assured as to DE
lacking only in details. which, it is hoped,
will be satisfactorily agreed upon.
The main detail is, of course, the course
Ii three crews can row abreast over the
New London course, Cornell could race
Yale and Harvard there. and later row CO.
lumbia and Pennsylvania. If the course is
not wide enough, Cornell would probably
insist on the Hudson river course at Pougn-
keepsie.

ANOTHER KIND OF WHEEL.
The Driving SprOckets RevOlve Fast
err Than the Pedals.

The Driving SprOckets RevOlve Fast
err Than the Pedals.
Teddy Hale will ride a novel kind OF
wheel in his race in New York next week.
The machine is equipped with what the in
ventor calls a multpleX gear, and there are
but two of them in the world. The driving
sprockets revolve faster than the pedals
making one and a half revolutions to one
of the pedals. To the axle is attached
sprockets revolving in the opposite direc-
ton. These engage the outer rim, which
has teeth that engage the driving chain.
At first sight it would seem that this me-
chanism is complicated and the friction
great. But the cogs are adjusted to an in
finite nicely and are inclosed SO that MOTH
ing is exposed but the outer teeth engaging
the chain.
In riding it the pedals do not revolve
faster than wheel geared to 80. but at
the same time the JOG gear is in effect.
Arthur Chase, the English champion,
used one when he recently defeated Linton
who at that time was riding ordinary
wheel. He defeated Linton easily, and
then returned the wheel to the factory.
10Sla but the pedals revolved at an 9S-gear
speed. The wheel that Linton is now rid
ing is geared to 112 and has an 9S-gear
PEDAL speed. The wheels are equipped with
lever chains. There will be nearly as much
interest in Hales new bicycle next week
there will be in the performances of the
men. Experts desire to see the wheel work
ing and to compare it with the new bevel-
geared and chain wheels that will be used

stIing-a vine with leaves like those of the
sweet potato, and puny little pink or pur-
pie howers-are as far in the floral dark
Tess as the Chinese. who know it chiefly as
wild thing of fields and hedge rows, the
vine Of the little trumpets," or the dawn
flower" that is entangled with briers and
bushes for miles along the top of Picking s
walls. The old poetry and the old art do
not seem to be permeated with it, as in
Japan, where the forms of vases bowls and
cups, the designs and paintings of the
greatest masters, repeat the graceful lines
of vine and flower. and scores of famous
poems celebrate the asagao I'm written char
acters as beautiful to the eye as is their
sound to the ear.
The asagao was brought to Japan with
the Buddhist religion. that particular cult
OF early rising. Scholars and priests who
went over to study the new religion brought
back the seeds Of many Chinese plants.
The tea plant came then, and Esai brought
the seeds Of the sacred DO tree; and Tai
kwan. the Chinese priest at the Obaku
Temple in Uji, who may have introduced
the flower to Japan was one of the first
to sing of the asagaO in graceful outas,
classic poems which scholarly brushes re-
Peat today. "Asagaos bloom and fade so
quickly, only to prepare for the morrow 8
glory" is Tai Kwan's best known verse.

AS a floral sensation. the crysanthemum
