Only Three of Last Years
Eight Available, and Jim
Rice Plans a Vigorous
Training Season.

I'VE haven't much material. but we
have 10 put crew on the water. so 1t
means that there'll have to be a power
full lot Of hard work done between now
and next June"
This Is the way Jim Rice. coach OF
the Columbia crews, sized up the rowing
situation on Morningside Heights yes
terday Because Of the substitution OF
the Junior varsity eight for the varsity
four-oared combination in the Pough-
keepsie regatta, Rice will have to find
four more men for his varsity squad
than he had last year, so that with the
present scarcity of material he will have
TO do a lot of rebuilding before he sends
his boats to the starting line. at Crum
Elbow.
Only three Of the eight men who
rowed in the Columbia varsity shell
last June have been saved TO Rice for
this year or the remaining five four
have been graduated and one has left
the university, so that the nucleus is far
from satisfactory. The four-oared crew,
however, is intact, although Herkert,
bow man, may not be able to row be-
tduHt if - NfliNIhb n 'olt III ltl iOOl CId<sS
which will interfere with his practice
on the river. With only six men who
have gone through the mill Rice is not
at all sanguine over Columbia's chances
for next season.
The first call for candidates will be
issued after the Christmas holidays and
practice will begin on the first Wednes-
day I'm January. Both varsity and
freshman squads will be formed at that
time. and if plans on which Morton G.
Bogue. graduate director of rowing. and
Captain J. w. Hadsell are working de-
velop. Rice may be surprised to find one
of the largest squads on hand that has
ever reported 10 him. Even with big
squad. however, Rice's task will be a
heavy one.
Rice thinks that his greatest difficult
" will be in finding a suitable man to
take George Downings place at stroke.
Ordinarily. Rice's range Of selection
would be limited to the men who have
rowed In varsity boats, but only one
of these. Mccarthy, stroke Of the four
last year seems at all worth while.
Williams. bow of the eight has never
rowed port and neither has Hadsell,
who was No. last year Rothwell. the
No. 4 man, was inclined 10 hurry
through his stroke last year and does
not come up TO Rices measure of
capable stroke. These are the only ones
left from the eight. Sanborn, No. 2 In
the -four, may be tried out but he would
fit in letter In the waist of the boat,
while Cronen5erg has always rowed
starboard. and If he gets into the var
sity eight at all will row on that side
Of the boat
To give Mccarthy a fight. therefore. the
only other candidate who has struck

Hard Work Ahead for
Columbia Crew Squad

Rice's fancy Is Wormser. stroke Of the
1919 freshman eight. Wormser Is light
and is possessed OF most Of the qualities
that go TO make up a good stroke oar.
although he rows short when ne begins
90 tire. and for this reason might not be
able to hold his own in four-mile race.
This is a fault which Mccarthy has.
also, although Mccarthy, because or
two years experience in the four. would
probably be able to hold his crew to-
gether in better form Robinson. who
strOked the four in 1911, has returned
TO the university TO complete his course
and IL is more than probable that Rice
will let him have a chance. Unless one
of the green men elbows surprising form
one OF these three will get the honor
seat in the big eight.
For the other places in the boat Rice
is almost as much In doubt, although
the return OF Bratton. OF the 1918 fresh
man boat, will improve conditions. Brat

fall rowing, and Is hard after two years

well, the veterans. For the junior eight
Rice will probably have to fall back on
the men left over from the freshman
crew Of last year.
SO far the only race which Columbia
seems reasonably sure OF having, apart
from the intercollegiate regatta, is one
with Princeton and Pennsylvania. on
Lake Carnegie. With the change in the
rowing policy at Yale. Columbia may be
able 20 arrange for a race with the Blue.
Rice has almost determined not to enter
his crews in the American Henley re-
gatta at Philadelphia, because IT comes
too close on the Poughkeepsie race. and
the change from n one-mile sprint 10 a
four-mile pull is more than the crew can
accomplish in the three weeks between
the two rcgattas.

Games Committee Decides
to Hold Tournament
Next Spring.
GRUMBLING AT STRICT
ELIGIBILITY RULES
Some Schools May Not Enter
Unless Faculty Arbiters Are
More Lenient.

The High Schools Games Committee has
decided TO conduct a round robin base
hall tournament next spring and declare
the team which wins the greatest number
OF games champion Of greater New York.
Although the committee was almost
unanimous in its decision, several schools
will not he represented by teams. and
the coaches are not at all backward in
voicing their reasons. De Witt Clinton
and the High School OF Commerce are
among the schools which will refuse TO
enter a team unless a change OF heart is
experienced by the faculty committee in
charge of baseball. Both schools. how
ever. will put team in the field and VIII
play any and all local mines which may
care for action and can be accommodated
by the schedule.
The reason for some OF the schools de-
clining TO enter the tournament may be
traced to the recent dissatisfaction caused
nv wholesale disqualification OF players on
charges OF professionalism last season
and the season previous. Several teams
which fought through the season 10 the
final round had their games protested and
thrown out because one or more players
were convicted of professionalism, and
some OF these charges were never clearly
proved, and the championship awarded to
some inferior team.
II IS the sense OF some Of the coaches
that any bona hde student OF a high
school in the city. who maintains his
standing as a student, should be allowed
10 play on the ball teams. These coaches
point out. and truly, that II is practically
impossible for the faculty committee or
coaches to keep tabs on the players in
their off time and that a good ball player
will play the game despite rules and regu-
lations Furthermore, they state that no
profes sional ball PLAYER will attend a
school for long after he finds that he IS
forced TO maintain his standing In classes
or be barred from playing on the team.
This has been proved in many cases IN
practically every school in the country
where a football. baseball or basketball
player tried 10 30 through on lis replta-
ton as an athlete. but quit when forced
to comply with the rules.
