rcspondence Regarding Private
Event Desired to Be Pulled
off This Fall

Coach Treloar yesterday received
another letter from Jim Courtney,
coach of the San Diego Rowing clubs
four-oar crew, in which he suggested
that the Los Angeles Athletic clubs
four-oar crew meet the San Diego
crew on Labor day, as formerly pro-
posed but to hold the race on the
other side of the bay and under the
direct supervision of the San Diego
Rowing club. The proposal. however
came too late. as Coach Treloar will
not take his crew down there for
Labor day race, although he will write
Courtney and suggest that the two
crews hold dual meet before the big
San Pedro regatta.
Coach Treloar will leave Saturday
morning tor two weeks vacation,
which will be passed, with his wife,
at Mount Baldy or i'll the mountains
of that vicinity. He Will leave
schedule of work for the inalVidual
members OF the crew. He postponed
his vacation, which was Que MIN some
weeks ago, because he thought the
San Diego rowing regatta would be
pulled Oft Labor day, as proposed, but
now that it is off he viii take much
needed rest and at the expiration OF
two weeks will return and rush the
final arrangements of the big regatta.
Jimmy koutzahn returned Monday
from the beach and since then has
been putting in strenuous hours IN the
gymnasium. Jimmy is the star stroke
of the crew and his every movement,
almost, is under the eagle eye of
Coach Treloar Other members of the
crew who are reported to be in fine
condition are George Retzer, VINO
probably will row at No. 4, and Captain
Isaacs, who probably will hold his old
position at No. 2. Isaacs has been
absent from the gymnasium for a
couple of days, but yesterday assured
Treloar that he would be a regular
attendant at the classes from now on.
Lou Guernsey will be secured, If pos
sible, as a substitute for the crew, as
also will Cliff Reuman. 1t is possible
that the position of No. will be filled
by one of these men.

at the noon gymnasium class were
Clark, Routzahn, Nordlinger, Tyler, G.
Retzer. Hamilton, Schumacher, Nc
Kee and Moore.

Siegel and Famous Schepps yesterday

score was II to 8.
Two fellows sat in the farther cor

over the dealing. Suddenly the tai
member with the blonde hair blurted,
Say, look here, Shorty, aren't we gen.
tlemen?" The one addressed as
Shorty" replied, Yes, but one Of US
isn't"
AL Treloar yesterday was trying to
convince q certain stout member at
the club that he needed physical train
ing. Il don't believe in it, said the
stout one Il bought one of those ex-
ercisers and put it in my room and,
would you believe me, l gained SIX
pounds in a week"
you didn't use it right" said Al.
''Do you have to use it?" was the
naive question.

as follows: "The hotel is on a bluff.
Beautiful views in the family album.
Three concerts every evening by bur
glars. If you need the chambermald
YOU will find her saving wood in the
cellar. Don't speak to the dumb waiter
and do not tip the waiter-he may
break the dishes. Old men will not
play in the halls. Married men with
out baggage will please leave their
wives in the office. Give your money
to the night clerk; he'll take it any
way"
