the dusk crews 30 far out from shore would
hardly be visible. And az one rowing man
puts Il: I'VE want % see the last ten feet
these days, let alone the last mile"
Rowing the race from below the bridge
to Krum Elbow will be a marked improve
ment rs far as the observation trains are
concerned, too. There will be q clear view
Of more than two miles Of the race after
the group Of houses above the ferry landing
is passed. From the Pennsylvania boat
house. which is at the two and a half mile
mark. counting from Krum Elbow. there
will be a very clear viewSof what is going
on. Furthermore the train win be closer
to the boats at the very finish than ever
before, because the marks at Krum FL
bow are very close in. This is an advan-
tage that should outweigh all objections.
", indeed. there are AFFECTIONS.
Bridge TrOubte Eliminated.
1t has been suggested by some coaches,
perhaps as a sort Of excuse, hat the
bridge has been the cause Of more than
one crew losing out in a tight race. That
is to say, meeting the swirl at the but
tresses with a tired crew at the three mile
mark has had an unfortunate effect on
the oarsmen. Whether this is so there
propably win be all sorts of argument, but
the opinion entertained by most persons is
that only one crew in a race is at all likely
to be affected by any such condition, or
rather only one crew might have been
some seasons ago, when the targets for the
courses we're not up just right. Since the
changes nave been made the courses are
fair for all as far as going under the bridge
is concerned. Assuming that there is any
justice in the plea that the bridge still has
something to do with a tired crew at three
miles, all that win be removed by the con-
ditions this time. The crews will tackle
the bridge at the end Of the first mile and
from then on there win be three clear
miles of nothing but rowing.
The demand will be for the coXswains
who can adapt themselves to the slightly
changed conditions. because 1t will not be
quite as easy to steer a boat up from the
bridge as it was steering down from Krum
Elbow with the bridge always ahead for
three miles. The coxswains will have to fix
marks on the east shore of the river. The
bank takes a bend around at Krum Elbow,
so there will be land TO hold the eye in
stead of an expanse of water, which would
make an impossible background. The
steerrnen win have to be a bit more clever
than ordinarily in holding on to a course,
but after all II will be a matter of holding
straight for two miles. The last mile is

NEW THOMAS s1x.CYLNDER
Innovation In Automobile Construc-
ton n Long step Forward In
the Right Direction.

He who has watched carefully the evolu-
ton of the m from the days of the
single cylinder runabout TO the present
clean cut. luxurious. six cylinder touring
car, has Ofttimes stopped. and wondered
what would be the next step toward the
perfect, ideal, Interchangeable automobile.
Perhaps the most conspicuous advance re-
Gently made Is the production OF the new
Thomas six cylinder, forty horsepower ma
chimes. While this car has a wheel base
Of 122 inches and seats six people, by the
use Of extra high grade material, hand
hammered aluminium body, aluminium hood
and tenders and the elimination of crude.
heavy construction, the makers have been
able to reduce the weight TO 1900 pounds.
In external appearance the car Is a work
~ art and the reasonable length of the
hood does not give a clue that hereunder
lies a six-cylinder motor. so compact is
the construction. This lack Of waste room
IN front permits the suspension of the
long body between the ax1es-the modern
style. This latter feature, with the large
double elliptic springs and the long wheel
base, give riding qualities that will be
difficult to equal. The use Of angular ball
bearings throughout, two independent igni-
ton systems-Atwater-Keht and Bosch
magnet, three disc clutches encased in oil,
transmission on full floating type rear
axle, three point motor suspension, and
man other desirable features, produces in
this 5000 car high class construction not
surpassed in any priced automobile.

AUTO SHOW IN OMAHA SOON
Big Display VIII he Made In Febru-
ary at the Auditorium.

bAs nS NAduC III EtbEu-
AIRY at the Auditorium.
The automobile show committee consisting
of Messrs Deright( Powell and Hosford
has been holding sever meeting to prepare
for the big automobile show which will be
held at the Auditorium In Omaha. in Feb
ruary. An early start has been made for
the show that the eastern manufacturer
may become interested and may be in
duced to send large exhibits.
Since the permanent repairs have been
made on the Auditorium there is consid-
cradle more space than ever for an auto
mobile show, but it is now thought all
the space will be utilized.
The automobile show in Omaha has been
a constantly growing institution from year
to year until at present it - recognized as
one Of the largest shows in the west each
year. The local dealers 90 all they can
for the show, but they need the assistance
OF the manufacturers that the different
parts and chassis may be shown and the
people thus gain a better idea OF the con-
struction OF the various machines.
AT the show last year the dealers from
the western country visited in large num-
bers and nearly all the Omaha dealers
sold all the machines which they had as
surance from the factory they were able
to get. It is thought the demand will be
even greater this year as the country is
much more prosperous than a year ago.
Several new automobile concerns nave
been added to the long list of Omaha
dealers since the last show and this will
all help to make the show a great success.

COLLEGE ATHLETES
DOings in the Field of Sport in East
and West.
MICHIGAN IS IN THE AIR
Changed scheme for HOvvihE FOush-
keepsie Races viii he satisfae-
tOry-HOw MIchiaan IL ne
ing Welcomed Back.

Not since the rowing races began over the
Poughkeepsie-Hlghiand course in 1895 has
there been need of making the college
crews compete the wrong way" of the
four-mile strip. that is to say. from south
to north. However, the stewards have de-
oided that the tides for June Is. 1903, will
best be served by racing on the flood in
stead Of on the cbb. Not only that, but it
appears likely that for two more seasons
rowing up stream will be necessary. The
stewards aim to have the races on a GER
tain day each year and the matter Of the
tides is taken just as II happens TO come.
The chances have been that since 1895 every
race was rowed down stream from Krum
Elbow. Now there will be an interlude Of
several years.
There should be little question of getting
the crews used to rowing this way. Not
one OF the coaches but has time and again
sent his oarsmen over the full course up
stream. As a matter Of fact every extra
fast time performance has been done on
the flood tide. There is a mark Of 1924 for
the four miles negotiated by a Cornell crow
three seasons ago, If memory holds. If the
followers Of rowing are looking forward to
seeing a record or so broken the coming
regatta ought to produce something like
that. Time performances amount almost to
nothing In rowing races, but to some folks
Il means much II a crew breaks a record.
At first when it was learned that a flood
tide would be running the stewards had an
idea they would send the crews from a
point about a mile below Milton straight up
the river, finishing off P~oughkeepsie. To
make the course perfectly straight that
would have meant starting close to the west
shore and ending over TOWARD the east
shore. The view of the last mile Of the
race would have been spoiled because in

No welcome for Michigan.
The supposed desire Of Michigan to re-
turn to the fold OF the conference for
athletic competitions has aroused some
comment on the part of the stalwarts
of the Western intercollegiate a~ssocia-
ton. Although Chicago. the most i'm
portant rival of Michigan. apparently
IL willing enough to have the Wolverines
back again. Wisconsin does not regard
the change Of heart with friendly feelings.
The Daily Cardinal Of Wisconsin says:
"Michigan's desire to become a member
again Of the big eight in athletics IL anus
ing. When the recent reform movement
in athletics began, Michigan, arrogant
with successive victories. opposed reform,
scoffed at the possibilities Of purer inter-
collegiate athletics and when the time
came to decide left the league. she set
out in her belIigerence and might to con-
duer the east. and she has met with humili-
alton and defeat. Now It puts on the
clothes OF ~penitence and asks to be re-
ceived among those II left because they
sought to be pure In heart.
"Its penitence Is commendable, but does
1t alone qualify It for admission7 Are its
athletics clean; will 1t keep them clean7
VIII its policy be one OF sane reform7
will It be a sincere advocate by word
and deed of wholesome intercollegiate
athletics? viii its admission prove advan-
tageous to the other members of the big
league? we want from IT a favorable pre-
ponderance Of proof upon these questions.
then possibly we might favor Its admis-
sion. Until then we are content to let u
wage war upon the east and to grow in its
penitence. There will be no invitation to
join extended to her. II must come as
a penitent one should and with a desire
to do in athletics What the Big Eight
believes to be right"
That is obviously a very unconciliatine
attitude and one bound TO make the high
spirited Michigan folks feel very unwill-
ing TO risk a snub in applying for restora-
ton to the Big Nine. as It would be with
Michigan In. The Wolverines had to give
a pledge when they came into the Inter
collegiate Amateur Athletic Association OF
America that they would stick to It and
under those conditions they are bound to
remain in that association. Every time
there is any discussion of the chances of
Michigan rejoining the conference It has
to be remembered that any such alliance

possibly. because the wolverines are
pledged to come east for their track sports.
To be sure, II dates were right, the track
and cross-country teams could take part
in both championships. That would be
asking a great deal OF the men, but there
IS no reason why athletes well trained
should not take part in two sets Of cham
pionships separated by a week. That Is
really very little. after all II is the
matter Of long railroad trips that has
TO be counted. These journeys do a great
deal Of harm.

Senator Stewart

Ex-senator William M.
Stewart of Nevada, who is TAX
ing a little vacation from the
Bullfrog mining camps, is one of
the most distinguished looking
men in America. He is of COM
manding height, a physical giant
and pair of kindly blue eyes
beam from a fine face, which is
surmcunted by a crop of snow
white hair and fringed around the
the chin by a set of ermine whisk-
ers that would take a prize most
anywhere, writes the Washing
ton correspondent of the Boston
Globe.
He was walking down F street
in the shopping district when
the manager of the toy depart
ment of one of the big departs
ment stores, who was out for
luncheon, rushed up to him:
Excuse me, sir" said the
toy man. Il don't want to offend
you, but if you will come up to
Blanks store and play Santa
Claus in the toy department I'M
til Christmas Eve We'll pay you
$50 a week. All you have to do
will be to dress up in fancy
costume, put a pack of toys on
your back and sit upon a plat
form for the people to look at
you"

pioneer miner and statesman,
who has just made another for

Claus to the children for three
quarters of a century, but l

ways cost me money. Sorry l
can't accept your offer, but Pm
glad that an old man like me is
worth $50 a week..
