Justice Scudder Says Queens

with which he Is afyiliated. When they

case. Heffernan was convicted. The Jury

Ing line. Their cutters and small boats In
cessantly patrolled the course, occasion
ally shooing back yachts and power boats
whose shippers were too eager. But the
system OF management was so perfect
that not single accident or annoyance
marred the race OF the afternoon or the
contests OF the morning. II was fine. clean
sport from first to last, with the most
stirring conclusion that you can possibly
Imagine.
The first crew sighted from the oh

end OF the drawbridge. was Harvsrds.
The men were loannE along the edge OF
the course. now dipping their sweeps for
gentle swing. now lifting them clear
or the water so that you could see the
crimson tips. The Harvard launch, with
Coach Jim Wray aboard, slid down the
river and took position at the bridge
abutment. All UP and down the line you
heard the Harvard cheer booming with
song lifting once In while. and you
heard. too. the confident, certain shouts OF
the Harvard partisnns who believed that
the victory was as good as won.
Then came a fine cheer from some
where up the river The Yale shell shot
into sight hurrying to It's position at the
bridge. The Yale iaunch-with Richard
Armstrong, the graduate IN charge OF
rowing; Guy Nickals. the head coach,
anu T.. u. Glhnnini IN charge or the fresh
man crew. on board-manmuvred to a
position at the west side of the river
Looking northward along the first reaches
OF the course you saw between unbroken
lines Of yachts, power boats and sailboats
a water lane perhaps an eighth OF a mile
wide without chip showing anywhere
that might Interfere with the racing
shells. There was elbow room and plenty
OF II. Conditions for the race were ex-
cel!ent. The tide was coming In. The
water was smooth and the southeast wind
lacked the force to start UP more than a
ripple or two.

flag on the scout and the strain was
loosed in grand cheers. Let IL be said
that the Harvard men. disappointed as
they were, let out such a cheer for the

Senator James A. Reed addressed

will speak at 1:30 next Saturday af-

one of the ablest Democratic speak

Missouri's newspapers. There is a
reason for it. Senator Reed is
true loyal Democrat and fights the
battles of Democracy. He has not
been so far from the administration
as some would have you believe.
He is upholding the Wilson admin
