perfect as II is possible to get an eight
and II the water IS smooth many would
| not be surprised to see the Red and White
well up front
While much has been heard about the
Wisconsin varsity eight being overtrained
no suggestion of this kind has been made
with reference to Cornell. 1t is admitted
that they are trained down pretty fine, but
no weakness has developed in the boat.
| Wisconsin, on the contrary, has had two
men overcome by the heat, which indicates
| that their condition was not very good
There has been a great Improvement in
Columbia's varsity eight since Hanlan
took hold OF the crew.
Georgetown comes here under conditions
very similar to those under which Wis
consin came last year. They did not get
here until almost the eve OF the race and
in their practice they have not made a
good showing. They do not pull their
stroke out bard and firm, and in squirting
their work looks superficial.
The crews put in their final practice
| today. The crews drew for petitions at
| the Nelson House tonight With the fol-
lowing result: Varsity fours-Columbia
first, Cornell second. Pennsylvania third.
Freshman race-Pennsylvania first, Column
bia second, Wisconsin third, Cornell
fourth. Varsity race-CorneIl first, Penn
sylvania second, Georgetown third. Wis
consin fourth, Columbia fifth.
The lanes are numbered from west to
east, No being the inside course.
The charge of professionalism which
was made against the Georgetown crew
a few days ego was very unjust. Claude
r. Zappone. the coach of Georgetown.
said tonight that not only were there no
professionals in the eight, but that the
| crew was the only one at Poughkeepsie in
| which a professional had not a hand in
training. Only two OF the eight had ever
been in a shell prior to May 1 and F. ].
Kerens. one OF the two. had had little
experience in a crew at Worcester. He
| had only twenty men to select his crew
from and they did not begin work in
shell until May l.

duct at His Home.
]. Frank McKenna, who claims to be
| Boer sympathizer, and who on Wednes-
day was adjudged not guilty OF a charge
! OF false pretences by jury in Criminal
Court No. /. at the direction OF Justice
Clabaugh, was again in the tolls yesterday,
when he was made the defendant before
Judge Scott, in the police court, to a
charge of disorderly conduct and profanity
preferred by Policeman Anderson. 1t was
alleged that NcKenna visited the home of
his wife at l04 Seventh Street northeast
and created such disorder. using such pro-
fame language and made such threats
against Mrs. HcKenna that 1t became nee
| essary to arrest him in order to restore
peace and quiet. The arrest, 1t was said,
was made at the request Of Mrs. McKenna,
who appealed for protection.
McKenna denied all the allegations and
claimed that he visited the home OF his
wife in order to secure certain belongings
which he alleged she had appropriated
during his confinement at the Jail pend
ing the action Of the higher court on the
charge Of false pretences. McKenna also
claimed that he was neglected by his fami-
ly while he was in Jail and because of
that alleged neglect had decided to have
nothing more to do with them. He claimed
to be peacably inclined toward his wife
and denied that he had threatened her.
Policeman Anderson declared that Nc
Kenna was drunk when arrested and ex-
tremely disorderly. Judge Scott was in
clined to- believe that the statements of
the policeman were based on facts and
ordered McKenna to pay fine OF $40 or
serve thirty days in the workhouse At
n late hour AcKenna had not been re-
leased
