SIX SCHOOLBOY
CREWS TO ROW
Plans Complete for Annual Re-
gatta on the Harlem
River.

An interesting feature of the annual
regatta OF the New York Rowing Asso-
citation on the Harlem River on Memorial
Day. next Saturday, will be the revival
of schoolboy rowing.
The drawing for positions and final
arrangements for the fixture were made
at a special meeting of the organization
at the New York Athletic Club last night.
To the surprise of the committee it re-
ceived six entries, three from greater New
York and three from out OF town high
schools. The boys will row in junior oar
gigs. There is considerable interest in this
contest because the high school lads
have not been seen on the river in five
years
Columbia University has entered a crew
in the senior eight-oar shell race. This
was the only entry for the contest But
rather than disappoint the Morningside
students it was decided to arrange some
kind of a race for them. Jim Rice sug-
gested that an all-star crew rowing an
octopede be matched against his charges.
II was moved that this be made the
special attraction and the last contest on
the programme.
The regatta committee was highly
pleased with the entries received,
considering the short time it had in secur-
ing them.
Six entries have been received from
Philadelphia and two from Baltimore.
The programme consists of sixteen
contests. The heats in the singles will
be contested in the morning The course
is a mile and a quarter long, between
Fordham Heights and Washington
Bridge

TIPS of Interest to Every Owner
of a Motor Boat.

In the case of dynamo belts or other
he,ts which have a tendency to slip 1t Is
wise to give them prompt attention. A
little castor oil rubbed evenly on the IN
side of the belt will in the majority Oh
cases give good traction.
When cleaning the contact breaker in

fine sandpaper Emery cloth Is good, but
the small particles of emery are power
full abrasive and are apt TO injure the
armature bearings and TO cause elusive
short circuits.
The multi-cylinder motors automatic
inlet valves should be fitted with springs
of equal tension to insure the cylinders
receiving the same volume of mixture.

Denver-The better roads" initi-
ated bill, providing for one-half mill
levy on all taxable property and esti-
mated to bring in an annual revenue
of 100000, was filed with Secretary

highways has been conducted under
the auspices of the Colorado Good

output of Hinsdale county showed a
decrease Of 475,4S2 pounds of lead
Owing to the closing OF the Gold
Links mine at Ohio, Gunnison coun.
ty's output of bullion, ore, and concen-
trates showed heavy decrease for
gold. Lead and zinc production also
decreased, but there was an appreci-
able Increase in silver output owing
to the opening of mines at Whitepine
and on Italian mountain. The output
of placer gold from dredges and other
placer operations at Breckenridge,
Summit county, was s386,196, as COM
pared with s392,739 in 1912, but the

and copper yields also increased, but
the yield of zinc decreased, owing to
the closing of the wet mill of the We'll
