NELSON'S Grew
Won RACE EASY
CREW LED BY HAROLD J. MEL
SON OF FARGO CAPTURED THE
RACE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF
THE PoND-GIvEN CUP BY
IRISH MAYOR.

In letter from Harold ]. Nelson, a
Fargo boy, written to his parents he
tells of an exciting race held on the
other side of the pond along the shores
Of the Emerald isle.
Young Nelson. who is a cadet al
Annapolis, is on a training ship for
the summer and is still remaining
true to his favorite sport-that OF
rowing. He is rowing on the mid
shipments cutter crew of the ship.
A few days ago the city Of Queens
town offered cup a foot high for the
winner Of the race between three ships
at the water front Great crowds
lined the shore and in a two mile
paddle, Nelson's crew won the race bv
two lengths.
Nelson says that II was a good deal
different than rowing in a shell, but
nevertheless 1t was lots of fun He
was formerly the captain of his crew
at Annapolis and four members Of his
old crew were in the cutter when they
landed the race.
In the evening the winning crew
was entertained at an elegant banquet
at thO QhCCh hOtEA WuEI9 the cup
was received. The mayor of the city
acted as the chairman at the festivi-
ties and presented the cup. The
trophy stood about foot high and is
a beauty.
The Fargo boy was formerly prom
inent in athletics at Fargo high school
and later at Fargo college, before GO
ing to the naval academy. He has
been quite successful in athletics since
attending the. eastern government
school and Is a credit to his home city
and state.

Baseball
MANY SIGNALS
FOR BASEBALL
AT LEAST OVER 500 DIFFERENT
SIGNALS USED IN BASEBALL
TO TIP OFF PLAYs-soME OF
THE SIGNS USED RY THE DE.
TRolT TIGERS.

One Of the players has figured thai
there must be at least 500 Different
signs In use in the major leagues. SAYS
q Detroit scribe. Since there is such
a quantity it Is the hardest thing in
the game to distinguish them.
For instance, for seven years Hugh
Jennings had hit and run sign thai
was never solved and as far as known
not used by any other player during
the seven seasons.
Jennings always brought his bal
over his shoulder; IL he intended to
give the sign he raised the two thumbs
as he brought up the bat. Few play
ers on his club, outside of the men
with whom Jennings worked the sig
nal knew Of its existence.
Bush and Cobb had one of the best
in the game. Cobb nearly always in
dulges in chewing gum in the game
When the Georgian was working the
gum it meant that he would hit the
next ball.
One good way to keep the hit and
run sign secret is TO use 1t with no
body on.
Here are few others that have
been used In the major leagues:
Bringing up the knee.
Spreading the hands on tho bat.
Touching the cap with the fingers.
Two fingers might be the signal, but
the player would touch his cap at
other times with one. three or four
fingers to protect the signal.
Lifting right or left foot.
Hitting the plate with bat given
number OF times.
Jerk the shoulder.
Turn one foot.
Throw the head back.
a good hitter will generally look at
the man on first base before the pitch
CIR winds up. This Ii probably the best
OF al the hit and run signals employ

ENGLAND READY
FOR Big MEET

London, July 11.--Harvard and Yale
will meet Oxford and Cambridge In
athletic contests today on the grounds
Of the Queens club in West Kensing-
ton. The public has been SO surfeSted
with coronation events that there Is
rar less interest in the inter-varsity
contests, however, than would other
wise be taken.
Richard G. Floyd Of Harvard, man
ager of the Americans, predicts that
his men win win the following events:
Hurdles, Chisholm; running broad
jump Holden; high jump. Garfield;
half mile. Jaques; quarter mile, Kelley.
The English captain expects to have
the first two men in the two-mile run
and that Putnam will win the hammer
throw and Baker the half mile and one
mile, IL he Is able to run which is
possible. He comedies close contests
between sCanfield Of Yale, and Dubois
Of Cambridge in the high jump, Kelley
OF Harvard and Macmillan Of Cam
bridge in the quarter. and Reilly Of
Yale and Macmillan in the 100-yard
dash. If Baker does not compete, the
Englishmen look to Taylor of Oxford
to win the half mile.
Yesterday the Harvard and Yale
men did only half hours light work
at Brighton. Manager Floyd says that
all are in good condition, but 1t is inn
possible to say how fast they are
until they actually get into the game.
The climate may have affected their
speed, MIR. Floyd thinks, especially the
distance men. Kelley, who strained
his ankle a few days ago, will run the
quarter. His injured ankle Is much
better, although he is still lame.
