GREAT COLLEGE BOAT
RACES TOMORROW. WEST
IN EAST FOR FIRST Time
Associated Press.

Associated fTeSS.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 2S.-A
memorable contest in American row.
ing annals is promised in the inter
collegiate regatta to be held on the
hudson opposite this city tomorrow
afternoon. when eight-oared crews
representing six colleges-Cornell,
Columbia, Pennsylvania, Syracuse,
Wisconsin and Leland Stanford uni
versity-will measure boat lengths
with each other in the annual four
mile race for the Varsity Challenge
cup, now held at Cornell.
Preceding the big varsity race
there will be the usual two-mile race
between four-oared crews represent
ing all but Stanford and Wisconsin,
and the two-mile freshmen eight
cared race, in which all but Stanford
will be represented.
The prediction as to the memora-
BILE quality of the regretta is based
on the observation of the veteran
coaches in charge of the young oars
men and others who have followed
rowing for 90 years or more.
Never have I seen six crews so
good as the six university eights
assembled here" said Charles E.
Courtney, the coach of Cornell uni
versity. The contest between Cor
nell and Columbia last year was tru-
ly wonderful race. but believe that
all of this years crews will be more
closely punched at the finish than
they were in 1911. In my opinion,
there will not be an inch of the four
mile varsity race that will not be
worth seeing"
For this great regatta 120 college
rowing men have been trained. They
are divided into the Is crews repre-
senting the colleges named. To see
these men in the pink of physical
fitness. after months of training, is
to realize the highest possible attain
ment In the development of young
men for athletic competition.

Three Confessed Accomplices of the
Latter Tell How Staying of Roscn-
thai Was Planned.

New York, July 30.-A score of po-
lice officials, all above the rank of Ser
geant, were facing indictment for per-
mitting law breaking in return for
price when the Grand Jury went into
session today. A number of citizens,
including some high in political life
and we'll known throughout the coun-
try, were also involved. More than a
dozen men of nationwide regulate
in the sporting world had fled the
city over night and others were So
ing. In cell in the Tombs, restless
ly pacing up and down like Gagged
animal, was the central figure in a
scandal, one of the worst in the his
tory of New York. Charles Becker,
indicted directly for the amazing mur-
der of gambler Herman Rosenthal,
two weeks today in the very heart OF
New York's great white light district.
When the grand jury reconveneG
today it resumed the consideration OF
the story of graft told by the three
confessed accompliches who said they
had arranged the Staying of Rosen-
thai at Becker's behest and because
he told them every resource of the
police department would be exerted
to protect them and the ctual siayers
after the killing. Rose admitted act
ing as Becker's collector of tribute
from lawbreakers for years and Web
Der and Vallon corroborated him in
all of his statements. He detailed
how the police graft was split and IN
volved by name three inspectors and
a host of minor officials. Also invol-
we'd former city official and several
politicians and it was to probe these
charges that the grand jury reassem-
bled today.
District Attorney Whitman insist
ed today that the Indictment Of Beck
er should not be considered an in
dictment of the police department and
defended the rank and file of the po-
lice from the graft charges. He re-
fused to discuss what promises had
been made to the men who confessed
other than to positively assert
that under no circumstances would
immunity be granted to any one who
fired shot at Rosenthal. 1t was in
timated at the district attorneys Of
flee that the state had strong case
against Rose and that it could show
that he and Becker were the only two
men now under arrest who could have
had any motive to kill Rosenthal.
