against Dawson. With ogden convinced
that Dawson is the boy the fun around
the arena should be worth while.
Young ETlenborn is featherweight Of
much class. While some Of the Manhat-
tan club fans We're disappointed in his
work against Kid Blackie in the four
round go Monday night, ErlenbOrn did
not cut loose. He thought he had the de-
cisiOn and in the short bout did not want
TO take a chance on breaking his hands
against a tough one like Blackie, NegO-
tiatiOns are now on for a 0-rOund meet

DRIVING CLUB MEETING
Summer Track Meets and Liberty
Park Speedway to be
Considered.

The Salt Lake Driving club meets to-
night at $50 Judge building to pass on the
reports of the committees on a race track
and the public speedway at Liberty park.
Both propositions have met with the
warm support of the harness men and the
followers of the game in general.
The Liberty park speedway proposition
seems to appeal TO all and that petition
of considerable size can be presented to
the city council is assured az such a
course is necessary to convince the coun-
ell that the speedway Is wanted.
That the Saturday afternoon matinees
planned for the speedway would become
very popular and also tend to promote the
breeding of thoroughbred harness ami
mails, is the claim made by the Driving
club
That a program of summer meets with
purses of sufficient size to bring out the
best stock in the state to be held at the
state fair track or at Wandamere will
be promoted by the club is the present in
tention. One Of the officers of the club
said yesterday that at least six meets
at one of the tracks a season should be
on the program.
All members of the club are asked to
attend the meeting tonight, at which
other matters than the reports of the
committees will be brought up for con-
sidera ton

For the first mile the light blue crew
put up a good fight, but thereafter the
race was procession.
The annual race was never rowed under
more favorable weather conditions. It
was a perfect spring day the sun shin
ing brilliantly while there was hardly a
ripple on the Thames. There was prac
tically no CHOICE in stations All points
along the river from which a glimpse of
the passing boats could be obtained were
lined by the spectators A great fleet
of launches and pleasure craft followed
the shells
The Oxonians were made favOrites in
the betting. having the advantage of 30
pounds in weight.
Cambridge won the toss and chose the
Middlesex shore, but the conditions were
such that there was practically no advan-
tage.
Start Is Good.
The crews were sent away to q splendid
start and with a slightly quicker stroke
the light blues forced the nose of their
shell in front. The boats, however, had
hardly covered a dozen yards before the
OxOnians drew up and at the half mile
held a slight lead. Rounding the curve
Cambridge, having the advantage Of the
inside position, Overhauied the OxOnians
and gained a lead of nearly a quarter
length at Crabtree, just beyond the mile
post.

At this point Oxford slightly quickened
the stroke and passing Harrods had al
most regained even terms. Gradually the
shell of the dark blues forged TO the front
and shooting under Hammersmith bridge

their bolt and the Oxonians settled down
to the long, steady stroke which had
made them such faVOrites throughout the
