HENLEY REGATTA
NOT TO Be ROWED
Stewards Decide to Give
Up Classic Until End
of War.
iB, Cahle % ID. rrbuns ]

London, Dec. 12.--The Henley Re-
gatta, the worlds classic rowing event,
will be discontinued in 1915 because
Of the war. 1t will not be rowed until
the cessation Of hostilities. This is
the announcement that was made by
the stewards to-day, and something
Of the gravity Of the situation which
causes the Abandonment of the world
famous regatta may be gained from
the fact that not since 1889, when the
first regatta was rowed on the historic
course. have the stewards felt obliged
to abandon the races.
The attention of the United States
vas focused more strongly on the re-
catta last year because of the triumph
OF the Harvard junior varsity crew,
coached by Robert T. Herrick. The
Harvard eight, after defeating the Yale
juniors at New London, went TO Eng
land. and within a fortnight after
landing won the Grand Challenge Cup
following a series of striking victories
in the preliminary heats.
The Henley course was selected by
Oxford and Cambridge as the scene
OF their annual boat race in 1929, and
ten years later was adopted as the
course Of the regatta, which has come
down without interruption since that
time. In addition 10 the Harvard crew,
only one other American crew has
ever won at Henley. That was in 1878,
when the Columbia four-osred crew
won the Visitors Cup.

Five Harvard Men Placed on
Mythical Team Chosen
by New Haven
Solon.

For the first time in a great many
years-if not the first time on record
the all-America football team Of Wal
ter Camp, which will appear in "Col-
lier's Weekly" contains the name of
not single Yale player. In fact, Yale
is represented only three times in Mr..
Camps three elevens.
Harvard is easily the greatest re-
cruiting field for the first team, which
contains Hardwick, Trumbu II, Pen
mock, Nahan and Bradlee. No other
university has more than one repre-
sentative. The six places left, after
assigning the Harvard quintet, go TO
Princeton, West Point, Illinois, Michi-
gan, Dartmouth and Cornell.
Harvard has TO be satisfied. however,
with her showing on the first team,
for no representative of the Crimson
is mentioned for second or third team
honors. The count for all three teams
is as follows: Harvard, 5; West Point,
4; Dartmouth, Washington and Jeffer-
son and Yale, each; Princeton, Rut-
gers, Cornell and Illinois. 2 each. and

Without the Aid of Yale

Mr. Camp is by no means convinced
that Yale's passing game is founded
on football fsllacy. He says in his
article in "Collier's";
"If we could combine the skill IN
line work of the best exponent OF the
close game-namely, Havard-with
the execution of the double and triple
passing, lateral and forward, and the
speed Of those passes displayed by
Yale, it would take a phenomenal de-
fence 10 stand up against 1t. But 1t
took Harvard all the season, up 20 the
Princeton game, 20 perfect her style
Of play. and it occupied Yale all that
same season to perfect her open play.
Some day a combination Of the two IS
likely 10 come, unless eXponents OF
open play become too much discour-
aged at the fact that the old style,
while producing shorter gains, is more
70 be relied upon under all conditions
Of weather and defence. The open
game requires playing for big stakes
and taking big risks. The closed game
takes far less risk, but the gains must
be more frequently repeated and no
team has as yet succeeded in combin-
ing both with proper skill"
Eddie Mahsn, captain Of the Harvard
eleven for 1915, is hailed by Mr.. Camp
as "the best all around backfeld man
in the country by all odds"

Charges Against Him of
Professionalism.

Robert G. Mclean, teh amateur speed
skating champion, was suspended yes
terday at a meeting of the lnterna-
tionai Skating Union at the Murray

ing Brokaw, of this city, is chairman.
