WILL HELP CREW MEN.
Coach Courtney of Cornell Decides to
 Adopt Patent Oar Handles.

Next year the Cornell crews will be harder to beat than usual, according to B. J. Kerns of Worcester who has received word from Charles E. Court ney that the Ithaca oarsmen will here after use the Kerns' swivel oar handle in all their races. Perhaps the ad- vantage gained by this handle-five inches greater length. of the oar and a more free use of the outer shoulder and arm muscles-will regain for Cor nell the prestage lost at Poughkeep- sic during the past two years when Syracue and Columbia in turn carried off the honohs in the championship event.
 The handle attaches to a regulation sweep oar, making it the width of a hand longer and affording a better grip for the outside hand. The inside hand will feather the oar as usual Coach Courtney has been. making ex- periments with these handles accord ing to kerns, and found that the crew using them was always faster than with the regulation sweeps. He shift ed the oars from crew to crew until there was no doubt in his mind as to the advantage gained by the new arrangement and he then gave it his indorSement-
 Courtney could have used the Kerns handles at Poughkeepsie this year, but he refused to take what he considered an unfair advantage of the other coaches. : <

EICHT TENNIS, CONTENDERS LEFT
Karl Behr Games Thursday Provided the Best Play of the National Tournament Braves Lose Still Another and are In Third Place.

Newport, R. T.. Aug. 27.-The result of the matches today in the fifth round of the al-comers tournament for the lawn tennis championship in singles left in the running three players from San Francisco, including the title holder, Mclaughlin, three from Ph1la- delphia and two from New York. The pairings for tomorrow will be Touchard of New York and Fottrell of San Fran cisco, Williams of Philadelphia and Behr of New York, Clothier and John son of Philadelphia, and Griffin and Mclaughlin of San Francisco.
 The Williams-Behr contest will be the feature event.
 The grandstand court struggle be- tween Karl Behr of New York. and R. L.. Murray of San Francisco developed the best tennis of the tournament thus far. Murray was a slight fayorite and for four sets and part of the fifth he fought brilliantly. Then the so-called silent member of the Davis cup team began a rally. and although he lost his service in a critical game, soon squared

resented~in the games. In 1900 Eng land was still having trouble with the Boers. but the British still had 2 first class team in the Paris Olympiad. Two years ago Italy was unable to send much of a team to Stockholm be- cause of tho trouble with Tripoli. but this difficulty was not important enough to prevent Italy from sending such army athletes as Lunghi, the former world record holder for the half mile run, to these games.
 If Germany were in a state of war it would be obviously impossible either to college or train a team of athletes. even if the games could be held with out molestation- Many of Germany 8 best athletes are members of the
 army, in addition to which nearly every man who might be available for athletic strength is liable for army ser vice. In addition to these fundamen- tai handicaps the German govern ment would find it impossible to f. nance such a big undrtaking as the Olympic games. The chances are that the Germans will do nothing about seeking a postponement of these games until they know something definite about the results of this war. If the
 war should be speedily concluded. and the Germans victorious, the games would undoubtedly be held. But should Germany be defeated or lose a great many men, and the country be impoverished. the Germans would probably abandon the games. It is barely possible that if the games cannot be held in Germany or some non-combatant country in Europe the United States might 5. asked to hold them in order that the cycle might not be broken. Un- der such circumstances America would undoubtedly be glad to hold and fl nance them, but they would lose much of their interest because practically all of the competitors would be Ameri- cans.

OLYMPIC GAMES OF 1916.
The Big Meet is Scheduled For Ger. many But the War Likely to in' terfere.

For the sake of the Olympic games scheduled for the summer of 1916. the athletic authorities of this country. as we'll as of the whole world are pray ing for d speed vending of the inteTpa = tional war raging in Europe, says Ed ward R. Bushnell If the war should last for two years. or though con cluded in shorter time. should re- suit in many fatalities, it would eith- CT compel Germany to abandon the games altogether or to postpone them year or two.
 There would be a precedent for this in the case of Greece in 1910. In 1906 the Greeks started an Olympic cycle of their own for the purpose of re- vising athletic sports in that country The set of games held that year came midway between the regular cycle of games held at St. Louis in 1904 and those scheduled for London in 1908. Although they were held with the council. they were not official Olym< pic sports. At the same time they were well patronized by the athletic nations of the world. So successful were the 1906 sports in Athens that the Greeks announced a similar set for 1910. and the Uaited States and most of the European countries prom .sed to send teams. Inl 1909 Greece became involved in trouble with Fur key and the games had to be aban- doned altogether. .. revived in 1896 has there been any war involving enough countries to interfere with these games. Frequently some of the countries have had sofe i'm ternation troubles but not enough to prevent any country from being rep

 Notwithstanding his five-set match yesterday, F. .. Inman came back to- day and drove G. F. Touchard to the limit to win, while F'ottrell, Clothier and Johnson were also forced to play extra sets in their contests respectively with Niles, Washburn and Pell.

Joe Cranker will pitch for the Sachems Saturday
 On Sunday /the Sachems meet the New London Independents also in a rubber game. The New London team is one of the strongest teams that has played around Norwich this season and by the result of the game last Sunday when the Sachems defeated them by the score of 3 to 3 in a great 12 inning battle this game coming ought to be a hummer. The New London team is coming with their full strength, for. if they lose this game they will be out of any chance to cop the state championship. The Indians are sure to give good account of themselves as they are right to home in close and exciting contest.
