ing officials have received word from
New Haven that the Yale crew will
probably be able to row the annual race
June 30. On account of the shift in
Yale s commencement, which this year
comes week and n day before the Har-
ward ceremonies, great difficulty was en-
countered in deciding the date of the
race, 1t is quite certain now, however,
that the event will take place at the
usual time on the day after the Harvard
commencement. OF course, it would be
to Yale s interest to have the race
early. either Saturday, June %, or We'd
nesdaY, Juno 30, but many obstacles
stand in the way of an agreement on
ono of those dates. In the first place.
the tides are extremely upfavorable, ne.

day. Besides, the Harvard final exam
nations extend to within few days of
the earlier day, thus rendering q set.
tlement on that date impossible Satur-
day, June 25, moreover, would be n poor
day. because, in case of postpone
ment the race would probably not be
rowed until the following Tuesday, the
day Of the third baseball gone.

NEW YORK, Feb. l2.-The Univer.

faith TO Eddie Dillon, who succeeds
W. w. Roper in charge of the Missouri
football eleven. This is simply a step
from master to pupil, for Dillon. while
at Princeton played under the Roper

was a success. At Sewanee he developed
a team that won the championship of
the south. Five of the players on the
Sewanee team were selected as members
of the All-Southern team. The Missouri
Athletic committee decided several
days ago to give the position to Dillon,
but was forced To wait until Dillon oh.
tanned his release by Sewanee. Dillon
obtained his release and notified the
committee that he would accept the of.
fer. He was then formally elected. The
amount of his salary was NOT ma5e

SOME OLDTIME
BALL RECORDS

Looking back over the pitchers rec
ords since baseball became an organized
sport for professionals, it Will be found
that only thirty batsmen have hung up
the highest percentage of victories if
they pitched in more than twenty five
games. 1t was in 1871 that Dick Ne
Bride, Of the Philadelphia Athletics, es-
tablished a per cent Of .759 for twenty
five games and led the profession.
Since then the leading pitchers have
taken part in a greater number of con
tests, the record in this respect being
held by those famous twjrlers, Charley
Radbourne. of the 1854 Providence
team, and John G. Clarkson, of the 1889
Bostons, each Of whom pitched seventy
two games for percentages Of .S3s and
.136, respectively
A. &. Spalding still holds the highest
winning percentage, 500, hung mp in
1873, when he was q member Of the
Boston team.

Harry Gissing has at last earned a
victory over Sheppard. At the games
Of the Pastime Athletic Club in New
York few days ago, Gissing and Shep

mark in a special 600-yard dash. Shep-
