HARVARD AND
YALE AQUbTICS
Two Wilmington Boys Are in
Victorious Crimson
Crew.

The Harvard Yale boat races this
year are of particular interest TO Ha-
waiians owing to the fact that Lothrop
and Paul Wilmington, Pupahou grad
yates, AID sons of d. L. Wilmington
of this city, rowed in the winning
Harvard Varsity crew. Lothrop has
rowed No. in boat the whole
year, and Paul, up TWO weeks before
the race, was rowing in the four-oar.
The varsity, however, did not seem
to the coach to be going as well as it
ought and at that late date the coach
decided on a radical change. Sargent,
the varsity stroke, was sent to the
four-oar, and Cutler, $50 pound man,
moved from No. 6 to stroke in the
varsity P. Wilmington was put in
to fill Cutler s old seat at No. in the
varsity. The crew was then sent over
the course for time trial, making the
fastest time of the year. The result
of the race further indicated the
coach's late change. The California
papers do not give the make up of the
varsity crew, but as it was rowing with
Cutler at stroke and P. Wilmington -at
No. 6 two days before the race it is
safe to assume the order was not again
changed.
The race was a crushing u,feat for
Yale by six lengths, Harvard taking
the lead at the start and never being
headed, though for two and a half
miles the Blue hung on well
The official record was: half-mile,
Harvard, 2:26; Yale, 2:27; mile, Har-
ward, $40; Yale, SIP; two miles, Har-
ward, 10:45; Yale, 10:4S; three miles
Harvard. 1910; Yale, 1920; four
miles, Harvard, 21:50; Yale, 22:10.
Hawaiian oarsmen will be interested
in the fact that Harvard, heavy crew,
kept up comparatively high stroke
form or power in the slightest respect
The Crimson rowed SO at the start
one mile. 81; two miles, 81; three
miles, 35; finish, SO.
The other races all went to Harvard
the varsity four-oar winning the 2-mile
race by threelengths; the freshmen THEN
race by ten lengths; and the varsity
substitute four by one length For five
years now Harvard and Yale have met
under equal conditions; that is, each
having professional coach. Harvard
has won three times: 1906, 1908, 1909;
and Yale twice: 1905 and 1907
Harvard challenged the winning Eng
lish crew for a four-mile race in Eng
land, but, like last year, the challenge
was refused Harvard met Cambridge
in England in 1906 and was defeated
The Harvard crews of 1903 and 1905
were infinitely faster than that OF
I906-t this year s was 2 minutes faster
in a fur mile race-so the general
opinion among Harvard and Yale mer
is that If the English would accept, the
Crimson would stand an excellent
chance of defeating them on their owl
waters. As Harvard is ready to race
at any time it is pity that this in
ternational contest can not be arranged

duration and will be hummer
That the go will be a success goes
without saying, for the boys battled
so evenly on the occasion Of their first
meeting that no lover of the ring is
likely to be willingly absent when they

Cordell will probably be ten to

of his friends and admirers, while not
wishing to detraet one iota from Cor

nevertheless insist that Dick had one

Jack Cordell stated for the benefit
of the press yesterday, that he was
sent here by Sol. Levinson to box Sulli-

RACING FUTURE
NOW DISCUSSED
Prince kuhio and S. NJ. Damon
Favored to Represent
Oahu.

The suggestion to form Hawaiian
Racing Association, which, by the way,
emanated from a Honolulu sporting
writer, staying in Hilo, has oeeasioned
much favorable comment in Honolulu,
and it looks as IL it wcuid not be long
before some definite move was made
in the matter.
1t is quite possible that the island
of Oahu Will invite Maui and Hawaii
to send representatives here to discuss
the matter. said representatives to
form an association, draw up rules to
govern the races, and elect officers.
While nothing can yet be said with
certainty as to their acceptance, popular
sentiment here favors Prince Kuhio and
S. NJ. Damon as the representatives of
this island IN the meeting suggested
With the assurance that racing would
be conducted on a strictly square and
above-board basis under the auspices
OF the association. both of the gentle
men named might be induced to serve
as the Oahu committee, and if this
could be brought about. the success of
the venture from this end, at least,
would be assured.
Mr. Damon, sometime ago, contem-
plated building race-eourse at Moana-
lua and went so far as to have the
plans and specifications drawn up. He
is keen sportsmen and lover of the
thorough bred.
Prince Kuhio is another all-round
sportsman who has a warm spot in his
heart for horse-racing. His late broth
er's colors were frequently borne to the
front ON the local tracks by such good
horses as Weller, Vioris and St. CASH
mir, and the successes of his stable
were ALWAYS immensely popular.
Under the government of the asso-
citation, which would control the tracks
at Honolulu. Kahului and Hilo, punish
ment inflicted at one meeting would
extend to every meeting of the circuit.
The jockeys, however, would be look
ed after in case of distress or injury,
for portion of the proceeds of each
meeting would be set apart TO be de-
voted to a jockeys distress fund, such
as is in existence at the mainland
tracks.

The Leiiehua Players viii Try
to Turn Tables on the
0ahuans.


At meeting Of the Oahu Polo Club
held Yesterday morning IN the office Of
Walter Dillingham;, the following were
present: DR.. Baldwin. Harold Dilling-
ham, Harold Castle, John Fleming.
George Angus. Or. Irwin and Robert
Atkinson.
The principal business transacted was
the setting Of date for the return
game between the Oahu Polo Club and
the Leilehua team.
It was decided TO play week from
Saturday, the Cavalry players finding
It impossible to play on the coming
Saturday,
The first game between these teams
was won by the Oahus, the score be-
ing 9 to @. Since then the soldiers
are said TO have come on rapidly and
are expected to make il hot for their
opponents, at their next meeting, even
If thy fail to turn the tables.
The ground where the game will be
played has not yet been chosen. The
Leilehua ground is far and away the
best in the islands but there is strong
local sentiment in favor of the game
being played at Moanalua, as SO many
Honolulans are DESTROYS of witnessing
the contest. The matter will be taken
up today between representatives of the
two clubs and decision arrived at.
Nothing was done at yesterday 8
meeting in the matter of fixing a date
for the inter-island polo tournament
which this year promises to be the
most successful in point of interest of
any yet held.
There was a polo practise yesterday
afternoon at Moanalua and some rat
Ting good work was done. If the
Oahuans keep up their practise lick
they viii take lot of beating when
the struggle for the inter-island cham
pionship comes around.
The standard of polo played in Ha-
wall has always been very high. In
deed there is little doubt that a repre-
sentative Hawaiian team could hold its
own with the Coast combinations. It
is doubtful if there is sport practised
in the Islands in which a higher stand
ard of excellence is maintained than
in polo.
