FIVE CREWS ON
EDGE FOR RACE
All Ready for the |nterCoI|e.
giate Contest.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, July 2.-Just
before the big five-cornered intercol-
legiate rowing race between Syra.
cuse, Cornell, Columbia, Wisconsin
and Pennsylvania the question upper
most In the minds of the crowds
seems to be, Can Syracuse repeat
her winning performance of last
year," According 70 the Syracuse
students, who have gathered here in
large numbers to see their men row
there isn't the least doubt about their
ability to do so.
Probably the dark horse" In to-
days race is Wisconsin, always con
sidered a formidable contender for in
tercollegiate honors in rowing, despite
the fact that 1t has never come out
better than second The Western col
lege has large undergraduate body
to draw upon-this year there are
over 5000 students enrolled at Mad
ison-and Ten Eyck brought here q
squad of twenty-five husky, able look
ing oarsmen, who have been rowing
well together and have shown signs
of individual skill and strength.
II must be admitted frankly thai
Columbia does not look good today Il
| the rowing expert. There have beer
| too many changes In the crew to de
velop the best there is in the men
| In Cornell's favor are the splendiC
way In which the men have beer
rowing together in practice and thu
long list of carnelian and white vic
| tories. This years crew is light. how
| ever, and doubts are expressed tha
| the men can stand the strain.
Pennsylvania has not won rae
| here since 1900, when the first OF tn
| intercollegiate races was rowed, am
she does not seem due for anothe
| victory.
Summing up the opinions of the eH
perts it looks like Syracuse's race
| with Wisconsin strong contende
and Cornell a possible winner. Vic
tory by either Columbia or Pennsy
vania would be the intercollegiate
surprise of the season.

Change Affecting Employees OF Gov

Washington, July 2.-About 1000
employees at the bureau of engraving
and printing have been shifted from
the monthly payroll to the per diem
basis This was done by Secretary

Hereafter each of the 1000 en-
ployes must give full days work

deduct any lost time from the annual
leave of thirty days or the sick leave
