0ARSMEN WILL TRY
OUT GERMAN CREWS
New York Sun Special Service,

New York, July 15.-James Pilkington, presi-
dent Of the National Association of Amateur
Oarsmen. who has been appointed manager Of
the Metropolitan crew Of scullers which is to
compete at Baltimore in August in the first
city against city senior octopede race. announced
today that movement is on foot to send an
eight-oared shell crew to Germany next year.
Pilkington explained that the Germans have been
liberal supporters Of American regattas in the
past and that it is only fair the United States
should send representative crew to compete
for the next cup OF the kaiser. Pilkington
said of the project:
1.-The idea is to send the best crew to be found
in America, Independent Of whether such crew
comes from this city a smaller rowing CEN
ter. Germany has never failed to remember
US in big regatta, and it is proposed that
we return her many kindnesses. The sending
of Mulcahy and Varley, the Atlantic Boat club
senior double scull crew, over to compete in
the Hamburg next week is simply the
beginning of bigger invasion next year.
1T must not be assumed that we can send
a poor crew to Germany and win. The Ger
mans are great oarsmen, and it is no uncommon
thing to find fully dozen professional trainers
and coaches from England in Germany each
rowing season. The German oarsmen advance
rapidly, and we must have good crew to send
over or none at ALL

G. Wright played championship tennis turnout
the three sets at the Queens club yesterday,
defeating with the utmost ease Max Garnet and

for the Dwight F. Davis international lawn
tennis trophy. With almost equal ease the
Australian pair, Walter Dunlop and Norman
e. Brookes. disposed Of the Austrians. C. Won
Wesley and r. kinzi. This brings the United
States and Australasia together next week in the
finals. Should the quartet display the same
form as in yesterdays contests, the most brill
hent exhibition of tennis seen in England
unquestionably will result.
Wright was the hero Of yesterdays play. He
was simply unbeatable in his service and net
work. At not single moment was there slack
playing from the beginning to the end Of the
ma tch, which was conceded by experts to dis
play the finest work done by Ward and Wright
in this country.
The Frenchmen played good tennis. but were
unable to stand the pace or find Wright's serv-
ice Or meet the wonderful returns of both Amer.
