Princeton Expected to Enter Crews
in intercollegiate Contests.

PRINCETON. n. j.. November 26-It
is expected that Princeton University will
enter crews in intercollegiate contests
next spring. Since Carnegie lake has
been available there has been plenty OF
interest in rowing at Princeton. Class
regattas have been q success, and during
a college generation OF rowing practice
good oarsmen have been trained in IT,
gertown. The sport has been branching
out as much as possible. A freshman
crew raced a Philadelphia high school
eight on Lake Carnegie last spring. The
only things which prevented rowing be-
coming a varsity sport were a lack OF
men interested and the possibility OF
stunt1ng other teams by enrolling crew
candidates
The success Of this falls interclass re-
gatta and the quality Of the junior crew
have aroused considerable hopes that a
Princeton varsity eight will race this
coming spring. DR.. j. Duncan Spaetti.
who has been teaching rowing at
Princeton. has commented on the pos
sibility of intercollegiate races. He Is
quoted as follows: 1T is hoped that
races can be arranged for the freshman
and the varsity next spring with out
side crews. 1t is understood that Yale>
Cornell and Pennsylvania have each
expressed their willingness to send
crews. II the necessary permission to
freshman and varsity crews will con-
tinue regular exercise on the rowing
machines in the gymnasium during the
winter, and the chances are that next
spring will find Princeton doing very
creditable work on the water"

While 1t is hard to beat the hours that

1t was really the best workout the Amer

blacks to practice on.
The first sight of real Australian soil
by the American boxers was when they
struck Morton Island. just of Brisbane.
in Queensland. A big reception had been
planned for the visiting boxers in Bris-
bane by Mr.. Wetzel, manager of the big
club there. and other sporting men, in

plans. Word had been sent by wireless
that the Lealandia would reach Pinken-

o'clock, and the club members. with the
mayor, were on hand with motor cars
to take the party to the city. which is
nine miles from Pinkenba. However, the
boat became hung up by the tide Just a
few miles from the entrance, and IL was
4:S0 before the water rose enough to
permit the steamer to proceed. 1t was
o'clock when the landing was effected
and the reception committee had been
obliged to return to the city. owing u
the fact that a championship battle was

Joe Russell for the title OF the state

festivities with the rest Of the Ameri-

The fight was u crackerjack. and gave
the Yankees a chance to get line on

and Thompson were especially interest

After the battle the party retired 10
the Hotel Royal, where an impromptu
reception was held and true Australian
hospitality prevailed. 1t gave them an

The entrance to Brisbane is a rather
perilous one. there being many reefs
and shoals to avoid. 1t is siXty-siX
miles from the lighthouse into the har-

route to avoid the reefs.
