Verify the luck does seem to have

Senators to win a game on Tuesday. but
yesterday, when ii was apparent that

Others Partly Responsible.
Many roasts have been hurled at the
Senators, and some of them were de-
served, but those who have studied the
situation are convinced that others than
the players must receive part of the
blame for the bad showing. There must
be a tailend team in every race. and
Washington would have little cause to
kick if it did not think that those in
control Of the club are either so incom-
petent or Indifferent that they have no
desire to make improvements.

No Excuses Offered
For Georgetown Race
Men Did the Best They Could and Were
FearfulIy Beaten-Used a Low Stroke.
Syracuse a Wonder.

| kinson recovered Coach Dempsey was
afraid 10 trust him in the eight and
sent him to Canario's place in the four.
Canario is a good Oarsman and rowed
fine race. but ii is hardly 20 be ex-
pected that a man who takes a position
on short notice could do as well as
man who has been drilled in IL for
months. and who, In the opinion of the
coach, is the ideal man among his can
didates for the place.
Georgetown rowed "A low stroke and
IL was very seldom il went ligher than
twenty-eight. OF course il did not win,
but before cOndemning the stroke re-
member that we finished only seven
lengths behind Syracuse in four miles,
and Syracuse rOWed an average stroke
Of thirty-four, which was remarkably
high. In the spurts, | am told, SYRIA
cuse went to thirty-eight and thirty
nine Maintaining such Il nigh stroke
over such a distance, you would have
thought that Syracuse would have
beaten US. with our low stroke, much
further than she did.
Stanley All Right.
There has been some criticism Of
Stanley, our stroke oar, the claim being
made that he did not take the water
properly. 1t was a case of mistaken
identity. Stanley is a freshman, and
this has been his first rowing expert
ence His work is nothing like as smooth
rs that Of the other men. He lacks
technique, and what onlookers thought
was an error was simply awkwardness
in style. He is one Of the best of the
forJy-eight men who rowed in the race.
we are going TO Pough.Seepsie again
next year. and Will have a better ana
stronger crew than we had in the last
regatta. Not a man in the eight OF
Tuesday graduates. and this years ex-
perience should be sufficient to devOl-
op dangerous varsity.
Syracusans Remarkably Strong.
Syracuse won simply because It had
an unusually strong body Of men. Some
idea of the stamina and physical ability
Of the crew may be gathered from the
stroke It maintained, and it may be
years before such a case occurs again.
Ten Eyck has been quoted as saying
that he was not surprised, as he had
trained the men after system he
thought out years ago. That is all ruo-
bish. He and his system were list III

| disguised with those in control is in
capable of putting forth it's best work.
In defense of those in control ii has
been said that they should not be
blamed for not having new faces or the
team and for various other faults. The
management has itself 10 blame for the
feeling against IL among the fans.
When the alleged sale of the club
took place there was much hot air given
out about how the stock was all held
by local capitalists, and about what
would be done TO strengthen the team.
1t was fine a line of hot air as was
ever handed out. 1t had a Populist con-
vention beat sixteen ways. There were
more promises than a DOwie prospectus.
Some public enthusiasm was aroused,
and there was every rea son to look for
ward RI good business. whSn H. was
found that none of the promises were
not been turned over to the local men,
and that the club was, TO all intents and
purposes, still in the hands of Ban john
son, representing the American League,
who treated the Washington public with
cOntemptuous Indifference, deliberately
ignoring all requests for assistance.
Should Speak Frankly.
Had the would-be purchasers announc-
ed frankly that they had little money
to put up but would do their best and
try 10 brace the weakest spots in the hopes
of a better showing this year, and a
still better one next year. then, it is
safe to say, they would have made
hit with many a person who now stays
away from the games as much out OF
soreness on the management as out Of
lack Of interest bred by constant
losses
Anyone who will come here and take
the club cut out the excess of hot air
and deal honestly with the Washington
public. viii find he has a good paying
loser this year, and valuable property
for the next season.
