Ty Cobb can start at the home plate

Ty covers tho first stage of the circuit
of bases in a trifle over three seconds
is but Il fair statement Of his proves.

Bob would be crossing home plate the

that Cobb could run 100 yards in the
worlds record time of 2 as seconds,
allowing for his remarkable speed on
the bases. it would require about " -
seconds for him to reach first base, Il

that q crimson victory this year Would
tie the long series.
The ~faste-t time ever mad O. the
Thames was by the Yale crew of 1883.
which covered the four miles in 90
1.iAutes and 10 seconds. The fastest
Harvard crew was that of 1878. which
roWed h four miles in 20 minutes
and 4i3-4 seconds. The slowest time
10y q winning crew was that of Har-
vard in 1883, which padded oyer he
course against a head wind in 25 min
ntes and Il 1-2 seconds. The slowest

Vale stroke cola psed four years "co.

over the line in % minutes and As
seconds. AS Harvard won this race
hN 2 minutes and So seconds. it was
estimated the difference between
the two was - boat lengths, the long
est lead ever attained by a winning
crew.
Harvard had great success in the
early racing, and up to 1885 the GRIM
son had won II races to Z for the blue.
Then there came Il Yale rally. and NJ

for Harvard. The blue streak became
so pronounced from 1900 to 1906, the
crimson failed to score a single vic.
tory. But ince 1908 it has beer
nothing but Harvard on the Thames.

ing by the New Haven crews.
In correction with the varsity race,
the freshmen crews of the two UNI
versities haN been meeting frequently
IN eight-oarcd contests, and -.-ce
1899 those varsity substitutes who
failed to get places in the big boat
have been given contests in f~our-oared
shells.
In these freshman races Harvard
has Won S. to 4 for Yale. while in the
substitute tours Harvard has captured
3. to 4 for Yale. There was no fresh
man race in 1899. While that of 1902
was Il dead heat.
Each year sees increasing interest
in these contests. The observation
trains which accompany the crew on
both sides of the river are filled with
cheering and flag-waving collegians.

Smatters From Three Fast Games

Who says Grand Forks fans are not
loyal. Hardly any of the 1000 at yes
terday afternoons game left even
though a strong breeze was swinging
the raindrops into their face with full
force. And they were we'll rewarded
for staying for that ninth inning finish
was sure gratifying.
Kuehn. the Duluth left fielder, rob-
bed Bell of a three Dagger in the
eighth inning Saturday afternoon. 1t
was a liner bound over Kuehn's head.
but the wind swung the ball kuehn-
ward and he made a sensational spear.
Stark of Duluth. who held Grand
Forks to one hit Saturday evening. has
a quick, snappy delivery without Il
windup. Occasionally he would give IL
preliminary twist but generally it was
a wrist snap and hard to get at.
The fans hooted some when john
son for Duluth made a balk Saturday.
However. there was a man on third
and second. and a man cannot be adj
vanced home on a balk, SO Umpire
Brennan was unable to apepase the
local admirers and do anything except
rule it a balk and let it go at that.
Sours. the Duluth slugger, was
walked purposely twice in Saturday
evenings game. Both times there was
two men on and Lohr and Wilson
showed good judgment in letting
Sours on for O'Brien came up and
flew out twice, after Sours had got
ten on.
O'Brien. the Duluth manager, who
is rather lively on the coaching lines.
furnished plenty of amusement for
bleachers. His continual line of chat
ter and kidding caused the fans to get
it in for him in a baseball fans way,
and they had lots of fun v e the fact
that he flew out after Sours had been
purposely walked. Darby, however. is
three on baseball and the locals have
to sit up and take notice when he
wants his team to play ball.
The diamond sure is in good shape
after all that rain.
Wilson has it on the most of them
in whipping the ball to first and
keeping the n hugging the pan.
He snaps the ball away nicely and the
rest of the teams take no chances on
too big a lead when he is in the box.
Brennan calls the balls in a low
tone of voice and the strikes With the
high c pitch. This is a good scheme
and the fans are generally sure of
what he rules ever though they do not
catch whether he puts up the right or
left arm.
Bell. while he has made a few err
rors. nevertheless is playing a good
game on short. VanDine has also
picked up considerably and that side
of the diamond is we'll taken care of.
DeHaven, who had an off day or SO
the first part of the week. has been
consistent the last few games and is
back in his old get-em form.
up Saturday evening.
The fans here regretted very much
to hear of. McMurdo's accident. The
big first baseman showed considerable
class and when he came up with the
stick somebody was generally sure to
get a red hot grounder. Winnipeg will
miss McMurdo to no small extent. if
he generally plays ball like he did in
G. F., and his record shows hat he
did.
1t sure was hard to lose those two
games to Duluth. The locals. how
ever played pretty ball and had luck
broken eve in punching hits they
might have taken at least one Of the
uair.
