Northwestern Swimmers
Win Conference Title

free instruction given to all corners,
has just been conducted under the SUI
pervison of William D. Mccarthy, Of
the Massachusetts, Humane Society, and
during its short course 346 applicants
were taught to swim. The elementary
crawl method was used.
The newly organized swimming team
of the Reading (Penn.) Athletic Club,
ably managed by John harrington, the
local A. A. U. commissioner, won its
first important victory in the champion
ship meet of the Middle Atlantic dis
trict. E. J. Heraty, one of its members,
captured the 200-yard breast stroke
title in conclusive manner.
The girls of the Philadelphia Turn
gemeinde who will face their New York
rivals of the National Women's Life
saving League, in the dual meet sched-
uled for May Is, are Olga Dorfner,
Agnes Hueber, Edna Dorfner, Margaret
Majer, Alma Herkert, Emma Paessler,
Elizabeth Becker and Helen Penny
packer.
Miss Olga Dorfner has done remark
able work this season, and several Of
her performances in the middle dis
tances are claimed as American rec
ords, though they have yet to be ac-
copied as such by the committee of the
Amateur Athletic Union.
Devotees of long distance swimming
are making a worthy attempt to en-
tighten the public on the true value Of
certain aquatic feats performed regu-
larly during the summer by notoriety
seekers. The latest attack is aimed at
the much advertised practice of towing
rowboats full of people for several
miles.
A Pittsburgh correspondent points
out that if one picks out course of
fering the help of strong current or
tide it is possible to cover five and
more miles an hour with no greater
effort than to keep ahead of the float
ing craft, so as not to have it ramming
one in the back.
Not an ounce Of strength, in fact,
need be wasted in thus travelling TWEEN
ty miles in four hours, the tide-pro-
PEELED boat following meekly in ones
wake. Yet the task seems superhuman
when ore reads Of the feat, for such
trifles as swift currents are never men
toned by the publicity swimmers.

TERRIER CLUB HAS
AMBITIOUS PLANS
Scottish Type Fanciers
Will Offer Cash Rewards
in Its Coming Show.

A one-day speciality show with money
prizes Of the big show kind is the am
bilious plan outlined by the Scottish
Terrier Club for its exhibition at the
Hotel Biltmore on Wednesday, June 2.
All speciality club shows have
championship rating of four points
under American Kennel Club rules, re-
CARELESS Of the number OF dogs
benched, but at an open show bench
ing of $50 is the minimum that Will
gain this rating for show. The Scot
fish Terrier Club is the first to OFFER
money prizes commensurate with the
high rating granted to show confined
to only one breed.
Only ribbons or commemorative
medals are, as rule, given as prizes
at speciality club shows, and in some
quarters it is held TO be a cheapening
of the championship title for the
American Kennel Club to give so high
rating when the prizes are Of so little
value.
The Scottish Terrier Club has an
nounced classes for puppies, novice,
American bred, limit and open dogs,
with four prizes in each of $40, S., 50
and 81. The bitch classes are the
same, giving a money value of 5000 for
the ten classes. The winners classes,
as usual, do not have cash prizes, but
additional money prizes are given in
each sex on the same scale for junior
and "bred by exhibitor" classes. There
is also a veterans class for both dogs
and bitches for similar prizes and
brace and team classes, the latter being
sweepstakes for the entry fees.
There are forty special prizes, nearly
all open to all, and the minimum value
is $40 All entries close on May 10

BROGAN THE HOPE
OF SCHOOL NO. %
But Every Team Has Its Favor
ties and the Fight Will Wax
Hot as Time Goes Along.

The Tribune baseball tournament for
elementary schoolboys, under the di-
kection of the Public Schools Athletic
League, got Of to good start last
week.
With plenty Of rooters 70 spur them
on, the mines IN several districts Of The
Bronx and Brooklyn have kicked up
the dust on the diamonds almost every
day since last Tuesday, either in regu-
lar or practice games. There was some
good and some bad baseball in the
early rounds Of the competition, but
abe enthusiasm Of the boys more than
stoned for any loose work in the field.
And, OF course. errors are bound TO
creep into the box score in ali games
60 early IN the season.
The team from Public School % is
peeved. SO is Saunders, its athletic di-
rector. Perhaps 1t was because the
team was not wearing It's Tribune uni
forms or because Saunders was called
away al the end of the fifth inning, or
even because several errors were
spilled just as Public School 20 began
batting rally in the sixth inning, that
1t was beaten by a score of to at
Berkeley Oval on Thursday. II might
have been any Of these things. At any
rate, ~ was GOOD game.
But Public School % expects to win
from now on. Il defeated Public School
90 or Tuesday, after a bad showing in
the practice contests. Saunders thinks
that the lapse on Thursday will only
serve 20 spur the boys to new efforts.
Saunders is putting his faith in Bro
gan. the pitcher, 70 win the -orough
honors and The Tribune gold medals
that 20 with it, He has not made a
bad choice. BroGan struck out ten Of
the Public School PC boys, and would
have won handily had not his support
weakened right at the end.
The names that the sand lots mines
call the pet ball Of their pitchers are
legion. BroGan had q new one. At
least, so the boys Of Public School %
say. The little pitcher got himself into
one or two tight places in his last
game, and when ne did some Of the
young fans back of first base would
yell: GIVE EN- the Charlie Chaplin
ball-'round the neck, you know" And
Brogan would. In the fourth inning he
had the Charlie Chaplin ball working
80 good that he famed three of the
No. 20 boys in a row.
Cakes, the catcher for No. %, intro
duced a new stunt in the way OF steal
ing bases. The bags were loose, so
whenever Cakes really was in tight
place trying TO steal second or third
he just picked the base up and held it
safe.
The boys from No. % played a good
game, too, but they had added encour-
agement. Up on the hill behind the
backstop a cOhort Of girl rooters out
did the boys in the nOisemaking. 1t
must be disconcerting to be rooted

these two candidates for the defence of
attention of thousands and give added
interest to the yachting season in these
waters.
The racing Of these two big "single
stickers" also will have the effect of
tuning both up to concert pitch, so that
in the event of peace being declared by
or before August it might be possible
to select the defender and sail the race
for the Americas Cup. Needless to say,
the Vanitie, under the new conditions,
will be made TO show all the speed
there is in her, which also means that
If the Resolute can sail faster than she
did last summer the Vanitie will force
her to do so.
AS the opening Of the yachting sea-
son OF 1915 draws nearer, the racing
outlook, both for sail and power craft,
grows more and more encouraging.
The schedules of racing dates already
published show an increase in the num-
Der of fixtures, while the new yachts
built and building attest that the in
terest In racing and cruising is keener
than ever.
The fact that the motor boat race for
the possession of the Gold Challenge
Cup is 10 De held TINS year In New
York waters has aroused great interest.
The present holder of the cup, Mrs.
Paula II. Blackton, who won the trophy
on Lake George last summer with her
Baby Speed Demon II, will have to de-
fend it against Count Casimir s. Man
kowski's new boat, the Ankle Deep Too.
In company with Frederick Chase, of
Tams, Lemoine & Crane, the designers
Of his boat, the count went TO Buffalo
last week, where he witnessed some
severe tests given the twin Sterling
motors Of $50 horsepower each. They
are expected TO drive the boat at the
rate of a mile minute or better. The
tests included endurance runs, maxi
MI n power tests, and one TO determine
the amount of power delivered at vary
ing revolutions. The tests, it is said,
were quite satisfactory.
The count is planning to enter his
boat this summer in every contest
where high speed boats are brought
together. The Gold Cup races are to
be held on Manhasset Bay in the latter
part Of July.

TRAIN PUPPY TO
AVOID CHICKENS
Now Is the Time for Commuter
to Teach Lesson of
Restraint.

At this time of year, when the
thoughts of the commuter fOndly turn
to his garden and chickens, il might be
well to warn him that il he has a puppy
cavorting around his premises he will
either be Obliged to keep continual
watch on his chickens or Immediately
start training the puppy into the way
he should conduct himself.
Valuable advice is given In this re-
gard in an item in "All Outdoors,
which runs in part as follows:
"Any young dog in which the hunting
instinct is specially developed is prone
to the pursuit and slaughter of poultry,
cats, sheep and other fleeing creatures,
in old American days, when most dogs
were raised on farms or at large in
small towns, this fault was corrected
early and speedily. Nowadays the val
liable dog grows up in a kennel, and
the chicken has all the enticing attrib-
utes of game. He may kill enough
Wyandottes worth $40 apiece to make
the investment on him come to more
than he will ever be worth.
IF he Is trained to stop at command
one may control him at once when he
starts after a chicken, and give him a
reproof which will be lasting. But
some owners find that the best way is
not to wait for the chance fowl, but to
buy a cheap one and give special
course of lessons before an evil day
produces feud with humans.
"Tie the chicken outside the kennel a
few minutes and let the young dog OF
dogs show an interest. Then bring out
the dog and speak to him sharply II he
pulls on the lead and tries TO reach his
supposed game. Take the chicken by
the legs, strike the dog lightly about
the face with it, rub it roughly against
his nose, and, in general, give him To
understood that chickens are to be
avoided. The treatment is nearly al
ways effectual."

VoUn1er Columbia Hope
for 1916 Swimming Team
VIII Be One Sure Entry in
All Dual Meets Next
Season-Lee Likely
To Be Barred.

Columbia will wait until final action
IS taken on the new eligibility rules
which have been proposed by the uni
versity committee on athletics before
laying any plans for its 1916 swim
ming season or counting on the pros
poets of the 1916 team.
Hal Nollmer, the star freshman on
this years Blue and White team, is
the one sure Columbia entry in all its
dual meets next season, provided he
does not lag behind in his studies, a
danger which threatened his eligibility
this season. Aside from Vollmer, the
men left over from this years team
are uncertain because of the proposed
new rules.
Under ordinary conditions ]. c. Lee,
the basketball player who showed up
80 well in the few swimming races IN
which he took part at the end of the
season, would be eligible and would
probably be named captain. Lee, how
ever, will probably be barred from
competition next season because he has
played four years of varsity basket
ball, which will. il is understood, keep
him out under the new rules.
Coope, the captain of the swimming
team, will get his degree in June, and
will retire, leaving Davidow, a sopho-
more, the only member of the relay
team, with Nollmer, who will be avail
able. Walker. FIRST year Law man,
who swan in couple Of meets, will be
barred because he holds a degree.
Whether freshmen will be eligible or
not is another moot question, and
one the settlement Of which will 20
far toward decreeing whether VollmeI
will have any help from the class
Of 10.
"Flip" Herbert, the Horace Mann
Bchoolboy, who cOntemplates entering
Columbia next fall. will be big help
20 the Blue and White il freshmen are
not barred. Herbert has beaten Voll-
mer at fifty yards and would more
than make up for the loss of Lee. II
Is believed that he will be eligible be-
cause Yale's rules on freshmen will
probably be taken over By Columbia
and first year men will be eligible in
all varsity sports in which there are
no freshman teams.
Bridges, the best plunger on the
squad, will be lost by graduation, and
Mcdonald, who competed in the dive in
the early season meets, has already
left the university Vnd will not be back
80 that no one of ability will remain
In this event.
From this early forecast il looks as
II Vollmer will be the body and soul OF
the Blue and White team, as he was
during the last season, although Ed
Kennedy, the coach, has several me-
developing who will probably I'll in
None Of them measures up, at present
~ least, 70 Lee, Mcdonald, Bridges OF
