PENN CREW DOES FAST TINE
Quaker Eight Goes Over Four Miles
in Good Form.
On Strength of Performance Red
and Blue Oarsmen Are Now
Considered Dangerous.

POughkeepsie, n. Y, June 20.-Never be-
fore in the history Of the Poughkeepsie
course OF intercollegiate rowing have the
crews been so At and well prepared a
week before the scheduled time as they
are this year. With the big events but
one week off. all the crews showed re-
markable form on the river tonight. The
river was as smooth as the water of
the proverbial mill pond. and with a fairly
strong flood tide the crews found ideal
conditions for time trials.
But only one Of the coaches took ad-
vantage Of these conditions. Ellis Ward,
coach of the Pennsylvania crews, sent
his senior eight over the full four miles.
and although no time was announced. II
can be authoritatively stated that Ward $
crew has a rightful claim on first posi-
tion. Ward also tried out HIS first and
second fOurs and the honors went to the
first. The winning crew was selected Ia
represent the university In the four-oared
race.
Coach Ten Eyck. Of the Wisconsin
crews. had his men out in the morning
and again late this afternoon. Both OF
the Badger crews went TO the lower
course tonight, rowing a measured four
miles. For a distance Of two miles Ter
Eyck gave them some hard rowing, and
then dropped the freshies. after which
the seniors continued to the end of the
course. No time was announced.
The Columbia, Cornell. and Syracuse
crews were all out for double practice
! to-day.
The weather was warm. and therefore
the work was not heavy.

Indifferent form shown generally by his
horses now in training. and particularly
at Perrier's utter failure to Justify eX-

There is some talk even of the posi-
