Turner Meets Evans
At Gayety Tonight

Little speculation is being made
among wrestling fans of Washington
today over the winner of tonights bout
at the Gayety Theater between Joe
Turner. the local middleweight. and
Walt Evans, of Knoxville. Tenn. In
weight and cleverness these athletes are
said to be as evenly matched as any
mat artists which Manager Peck has
signed to perform at his play house.
Although Turner and Evans have met
before this season under the Police
Gazette rules, a fall was not gained by
either man Notwithstanding the fact
that the bout went for two hours and
forty-fve minutes. In tonight's en-
gagement no hold except the strangle
hold will be barred. In last wednes-
days match with Sam Anderson, Evans
demonstrated a proclivity to use the toe
hold, and as this Is also a favorite hold
or turner's, II will be interesting TO see
which man puts II to the best use.
Evans has been working out with
some of the best Washington wrestlers,
and Is in fine fettle for his go with
Turner. The latter having been work.
Ing hard in the South during the pres
ent week is also in good condition. 1t
Is thought that Chris Jordan. a Middle
west wrestler, will challenge the win
ner of tonights fray.

TECHNICAL CREW
TO HOLD REGATTA
ON UPPER POTOMAC
Event to Be Held Under
Auspices of Analostan
Boat Club.

According to plans announced today.
the Technical High School crew now
at work on the Upper Potomac, will
hold regatta within the next three
weeks. Plans for the regatta have as
yet not been completed, but Coach He
cox announced this morning that the
crew would hold a closed event which
would terminate in a celebration at the
boathouse. All members of the Tech
crew are also members of the Analos-
tan Boat Club, under whose auspices
the event will be held.
1t is understood that a number of
feature events will be included in the
regatta, such as canoe races, and the
crew will be pitted against one of the
club crews In short race. Several
four-oared events are TO make an ap-
take up the greater part of the after
noon.
1t has been planned to give a cele-
bration in the evening at the clubhouse
In the form of a dance. Members of
the board of education and teachers and
pupils of the school are to be invited.
The Tech band, always prominent at
school activities, is expected to be on
hand TO furnish music during the re-
gatta, and the Tech" orchestra will be
heard in the evening festivities.
In all probability the date of the re-
gatta will fall on Friday, May II. al
yet. Students at the school and men,
bers of the crew are enthusiastic over
the prospect of the regatta, which IL
sure to be largely attended

Baltimore sends three entries this
morning for the annual Times-NeHs s
Marathon race scheduled for May IL to
be run from Laurel, Md, to the Balti-
more News Building, in Baltimore. The
three entrants for the annual classic
bring the total number now in line for
the great race up to 1OS. as the record
for yesterday was 105. But twenty moro
names must be added before the record
of 12S will be equaled.
The fact that there are eight more
days in which entries can be sent In
argues well In favor of breaking the
record number of entries. For the past
five days entries have been coming in
at the rate of three and four per day,
with the result that the total has
jumped up In leaps and bounds. Those
