Compete with Oars
Ithaca Men Confident of Victory if
They Get Races Arranged.
Planned for May.

NEW YORK, March 25.-Plans for
proposed race between the varsity crews
Of Princeton Cornell and Yale on Lake
Carnegie at Princeton have not fully ma
tured Il is very likely that the event will
be held The matter OF meeting Princeton
is under Amusement by both Yale and Cor
nell. Cornell is DESTROYS Of entering into
the match because it will afford the Cor
nellians a long-sought opportunity to meet
the bulldog on the water. Cornell's crews,
regarded as the peers of oarsmen, have not
met Yale in years. II the race is rowed,
It will marx the first appearance Of Prince
ton in an intercollegiate rowing race since
1854
1t is planned to have the race take place
on the afternoon Of May 10, the day be-
fore that scheduled for the Princeton
Harvard base ball game. Selection Of this
date would serve a dual purpose for the
Princeton, Yale, Cornell and Harvard en-
thusiasts 1t would enable them to see a
college boat race and base ball game
within twenty-four hours.
The prospect Of Yale and Cornell meeting
, this year on Carnegie lake has caused
much discussion 1t would prove an eX-
cellent tryout for Cornell for the inter
collegiate race, which is to follow in June.
Whether Princeton would be prominent
figure in the race, it is difficult to de-
termine. Since the establishment Of Car
negie lake the Princeton crews have en-
gagged in interclass races only. They have
showed some very promising material.
Captain r. T. Roche and thirty candidates
for the varsity crew have been in train
ing all winter on the machines and will be
on the water next week The oarsmen are
trained by Prof J. Duncan Speeth The
varsity crew Of Princeton is said to give
every promise of being fast
Complete arrangements for the proposed
race may be made within the next few
days. BY that time the rowing programs
Of all the universities will be complete.
There is some question in the universities
as to the advisability Of allowing the crews
to race as often this year as they have
been asked. For instance, the American
Henley, which is to be held in Philadelphia
has extended invitations to Pennsylvania,
Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, SYRIA
cuse and other universities to participate in
that event. Cornell Princeton and Penn
sylvana, It is understood, will positively
row in the Henley.

PHILADELPHIA March G.-Its a far
cry 20 next autumn, but the Quaker City
Motor club is already planning for the
automobile road race held annually in
Philadelphia. The Paramount Park com
mission has granted the club permission to
hold the contest on October Z. This sane
ton assures what has come to be one of
the most picturesque automobile races in
this country.
The permit is TO hold a sO-mne race.
The course used for the last three years
win again be selected No reference was
made at the meeting OF the commission
TO the plan recently preached that the
park race be made a date In the grand
circuit OF auto racing plans for the forma-
ton OF which are now under way. Phila-
delphia says that It Is most unlikely that
the race viii be merely an incident In the
circuit.
Because OF the three annual successes OF
the Quaker City Motor club the members
% that organization feel that the road
race given under their auspices has be-
come one OF the three big races in the
country and they are not willing to allow
the control OF the contest TO pass from
their hands.
In addition, the division OF receipts would
preclude such an arrangement. Fifty per
cent OF the proceeds OF the race this year
will so to the municipal Fairgrounds com
mittee and the other half will be divided IN
equal shares between the police and park
guards pension funds.

The Tire Book
Tells Howto Double Your Tire Mileage
How to Save Half On Your Tires
How many motorists will write a postal to learn
about modern, economical tires?

About six years ago after six
years of tire making-we perfected
the Goodyear No-Rim- Cut tire. Over
100000 have been already sold.
Last year our tire sales trebled-
jumped to $780, 00-because of this
patented tire Yet, during most of
the year, No-Rim- Cut tires cost one
fifth more than other standard tires.
Now they cost an equal price.
This year, "a leading motor car
makers have contracted for Good
year No-Rim-Cut tires on their latest
models.
Today, Goodyear No-Rim-Cu tires
outsell Our clincher tires almost six
to one.
All of which shows that men who
know are buying these modern tires.
The day of the clincher is ending.

To run a single block on . punctured
tire often wrecks it beyond repair.
With ordinary tires, a puneture
must be repaired on the spot.
Rim-cutting ruins more tires than
any other single cause. 1t adds an
average of rs per cent to tire cost.
Now this can be ended forever with

The moment Mr.. Fanshaw ana
Jeanne emerged upon the deck they
heard the sound of oars beneath them,
and looking over the rail saw one OF
the boats in which the shore party
had set out, pulling up alongside the
accommodation ladder. Three men
were in it, two OF the crew and Tom
Fanshaw.
What news, Tom?" his father
called out anxiously enough to belle
his former tranquil manner. Have
you found anything? l hope there's
nothing wrong"
The younger man looked up. He
saw his father. but not the girl.
Nothing wrong" he growled, except
this Internal ankle Of mine. I've
sprained it again, and l did 1t Just
when" He broke the sentence on
short there, his eye falling at that
moment upon Jeanne.
She paled little. for she had been
quick to perceive that something he
had been about to tell would not be
told now, or must be told differently.
But she waited until his father, to-
gether with the two sailors, had got
the disabled man up onto the deck
and safely installed in an easy chair.
Then gravely, but steadily Just as
what, Tom? What clue had they found
just as you had to cssgne away"
1T was very wonderful" he said;
quite inexplicable. Just as we were
about breaking camp this morning we
saw q man coming toward us across
the ice. We thought at first that 1t
was Hunter, and we were nightly
glad to see him. because he had stray
ed off somewhere and hadn't camped
with us. But we soon saw it wasn't
he, wasn't a man anything like him.
He was queer, slouching, shuttling
creature, dressed in skins, and he
came up in a hesitating way, as II he
was afraid of us. He couldn't talk

Fanshaw looked quickly from the
negro's face to the girls as II he sus-
pected a hoax, but the terror in one
face and the mystification in the other
were obviously genuine.
Then he rose and went over to the
buffet, returning to the table with the
oddly-shaped, rudely-whittled stick.
do you mean to say" he demanded,
looking up at the girl with puzzled
frown-'do you mean to say that he,
the man you dreamed about, made
you a present of this stick?"
She laughed. IF that seems rea-
sonable way of putting 1t, yes; at
least it slipped out of his belt and l
found it where he had been sitting.
But can you imagine what he used 1t
for?"
"Oh, l know what 1t is, but that
only makes the puzzle all the deeper.
It's an Eskimo throwing-stick. They
use it to shoot darts with. 1t lies
in the palm of the hand, so, and the
dart is put in that groove, though the
butt of this one seems curiously mis-
shapen; l can't make 1t fit my hand.
But l can't figure out how the thing
got aboard the yacht; it wasn't here
yesterday"
"Of course not" she said; my sky
man brought it."
He ran his fingers through mis-
bushy gray hair perplexedly. Then he
laid the thing down and seated HIM

said, I'VE needn't let even a mystery
spoil our breakfast. Come, my dear,
you've eaten almost nothing. That
omelet deserves better treatment"
Obediently she took up her fork,

again, and he saw her eyes brighten
with tears. "Of course, if there'd been
any news, if there'd been anything to
find, we'd have heard"
Silently heSreached across the table
and patted the hand that lay there on
the white cloth.

"Oh, | suppose" said Jeanne,
there's no use worrying"
Across the table from where she sat
at breakfast in the snug, warm, lux
urious little dining room on the yacht,
old Mr.. Fanshaw methodically laid his
coffee spoon in the saucer beside his
cup, and looked up at her with his
slow, deliberate smile

Tom is in the party. Unless they find
