LIGHT WORK, BUT LOT
OF It, FOR 0ARSMEN

POUGHKEEPSIE, June 25-Light
training but a lot of it featured the
work of every camp in preparation for
the big regatta Friday. There was
confidence in every boathouse but
Wisconsin. The Badgers are not GO
ing along in the form they showed a
week ago and Coach Vail is a trifle
downcast. Penn was the first to get on
the water in afternoon practice yes
terday. Nickalls gave all of the crews
mile of racing from regular starts.
Ten Eyck sent his three Syracuse
crews up to krum Elbow and back for
an eight-mile paddle. He noticed a
stack of barrels and boxes piled back
of the Columbia quarters and shouted
to Jim Rice in passing: you had bet
ter burn those up now. Jim. You
night"
Rice told the Syracuse veteran that
he had better come up Friday night
and witness the celebration.
Coach Courtney chased the Cornell
varsity out for an eight-mile paddle
at low stroke of twenty five. Occa-
sionally he would order a sprint for
a few hundred yards. The crew kept
close in shore and rowed up to the
start at Krum Elbow and return.
Coach Rice took his men out at Z
o'clock, after the sun had died down.
He sent the three crews up to the
start of the course, had them paddle
down to the mile mark. opposite the
Columbia quarters. and then raced
them off to the two mile mark. 1t was
a walkaway for the varsity.
The Washington eight had a stiff row
of three miles and then a paddle of
six more
Conibear said that he thought Penn
had more nerve than a bridge builder.
They wanted US to lay odds after a
trip of $500 miles," he said. I'VE
have not had crew to row against in
over a month and we are under every
natural disadvantage. Then those
Quakers. with the steel of an English
man. want US to lay odds of 10 to 8.
We took one bet to oblige them, but
no more. We are not the goats of this
regatta"
Any betting that has taken place has
been extremely light as the pools with
their wagerers have not arrived and
will not until this evening. There were
a few bets of 500 apiece by hackers
of Columbia and Cornell These were
laid out at even money. Columbia men
asked 8 to against the field.

TICKLISH LIQUOR PROBLEM
BEHIND HOUSE PETITION
Plea to Rules Committee on Pro-
posed Legislation Has Signifl-
cant Bearings.

A petition asking the rules commit
tee of the House not to report out any
special Sules for legislation except that
covered by the decision of the demo-
cratic caucus Is in circulation at the
Capitol. and while many Of its hackers
claim 1t is aimed at bringing about a
short session, the most significant re-
suit the petition would accomplish If
successful would be the defeat of a
plan to force a vote on the Hobson
resolution for nation wide prohibition
at this session.
The paper has been circulated by Rep
resentatives Ashbrook and Cline. prin-
cipally. Many democrats who have been
assured of political death no matter
which way they vote on the ticklih
liquor problem have clutched wildly at
a chance to postpone the crisis until
after election.
The petition had difficult shedding at
the outset. as 1t was hard to find men
who wanted to go on record as shut
ting out some Of their own legislative
hobbies. Rural credits hackers want
ed to make exception Of the Buckley
bill, some OF the southern men wanted
to make an exception of the Lever
cotton futures bilr'. and several
wanted to be sure that the Alexander
seaman's bill was passed at this ses-
sion.

.BEHR AND PE[[ GET
IN SEMINAL TENNIS
Each Beaten in Opening Set Of His
Match, Only to Rally and
Triumph.

SOUTH ORANGE. N. J.. June 23-Karl
Behr. former internationalist- and
Theodore R. Pell. holder of the Achelis
challenge cup. reached the semi-final
round in the lawn tennis tournament for
the middle states championship at the
turf courts of the Orange Lawn Tennis
Club here yesterday. Both Pell and
Behr were forced to three sets before
they won their fourth round tussles. the
formed defeating Charles NJ. Bull, jr.. Of
the Crescent Athletic Club at 6-s. 6-s.
Ga. and the latter winning from Joseph
j. Armstrong of the Harvard tennis
team, f-S, S-3 fl
That both of the matches went to an
extra set was due TO the fact that the
losers in each case played surprisingly
good tennis The work of Bull was a
surprise to a great many. for he has not
been playing in anything like his usual
form this season, and in giving Pell such
a fight he showed that he is rounding
rapidly into his stride.
The young Harvard player, on the other
hand, has been doing very well all sea-
son, and it was expected generally that
he would give Rehr some trouble. The
brand of tennis that he showed in the
first set left nothing to be desired. for
he not only outplayed Behr. but even out
generated him. He slowed down, how
ever, in the second set. probably with the
intention of resting for the third but
when the third was reached Behr. who
had been going at top speed all along,
set too hard a pace for the collegian to
combat successfully.
Iiolcome Ward. who played on the first
Davis cup team. continued to win and
reached the fourth round. vanquishing
Henry \. Balch in straight love sets
Ward placed with wonderful accuracy
and his soft cut shots just over the net
bad Balch baffied from the start.
Mrs. Marshall Mclean, holder of the
New Jersey and Metropolitan titles.
reached the third round in the women S
singles. which started yesterday. Mrs
Mclean defeated Mrs. David G. Mills
and Miss Edith Condit in order.
