NEW RATING FOR
BEDOU|A Shakes UP
Instead Of Defeating Dora
II by 8 Minutes, Margin
is s Seconds
INCREASES RIVALRY
BETWEEN CRUISERS

CAPE MAY. Aug. s.-The discovery
Of an error in the rating Of Jules
Levy's yacht Bedouin pats new
phase on the point race from Salem TO
Ocean City. The first leg Of this race
was run from Salem to Cape May on
Monday and was won by Bedouin,
supposedly by some eight minutes.
New developments show that Bedouin
go away with that race by the un-
comfortable margin Of eight seconds.
Bedouln was rated at 1855 In
checking UP the figures an error In
the cylinder capacity was found which
increases her rating to 3416 This
means an additional handicap OF 7.s9
seconds to the mile. or six minutes
and So seconds. Her corrected time
vas 5.0455, which with 6.5S added
now makes 5.11.5S, or only eight sec
)uds less than the corrected time OF
Dora II. which was 512.O1 The sec
ond leg Of this race will be run TO-
lay. starting at the Corlntnian Yacht
Club here and finish at the Ocean City
Yacht Club.
Tho Winning of the Coke Hall tro-
ply race on Monday by Dora II has
Increased the rivalry Of the two boats
The Bedouin has so far won every
hing In sight except the Coke Hall
trophy The change In her ratings SO
far has not made a change in the re-
suit, but has made an important diff
ference in the prospects OF today's
-ace, Betting on the result last night
was at even money.
There is just another bit OF side in
lerest to this rating controversy, Tn,
new rating is based on the ohicia
measurement Of the Delaware Rive
Yacht Racing Association. II. E. Dan
zelecher. the Official measurer o
the Racing Association OF Soutl
Jersey Yacht Clubs, agrees that he
former rating is low. but says the ne'
rating is excessive and that her add
tonal handicap should be only 3.9
seconds to the mile instead OF as
seconds. This would make her wiz
hing margin somewhat greater

origin OF rowing
TOLD BY ten EYCK
English Oarsmen First to Row Four
Mile Race.

Old Jim Ten Eyck. the Syracuse rowing
coach, in the latest issue of the Syra-
cusan. tells how colleges came to row
four miles.
"One day a couple of English oarsmen
started out for a little row on the
Thames" writes Ten Eyck. lone of them
said to the other, My bally old chap. I'll
row you from Putney to the ship at May
feres, and when we get there we'll have
couple OF beers And so they each
started out in their scull, and when they
reached Mayfreres they went to a road
, house there and had refreshments.
"Other old-time oarsmen followed their
example, and it became a favorite pull.
When oxford and Cambridge took up
rowed from Putney to Mayferes. You
know how hard 1t is to change an
Englishman once he gets into a rut
WELL It SO happened that the distance
| from Putney to Mayferes was four miles
and three hundred yards. When Yale and
Harvard took up rowing in this country
they looked over the ocean and saw the
Oxford rowed about four miles, so they
decided that 1t was the proper distance
and began rowing that distance over here.
But as a matter of fact the distance
here has not always been four miles.
The first race was little more than one
mile and a half. The later races were on
small lakes and covered only a fraction
of four miles. When the crews got on
larger bodies of water they adopted the
English four-mile course. There is no
other reason why they should row four
miles.
'I believe that 1t is unnecessary to row
| four miles, but 1t does not hurt a man to
row four miles any more than 1t does a
mile and a half. If he is in condition to
row he will not feel the difference. We
are training our men for that distance.
There - no reason why an oarsman
should fall in a boat. We pick our men
from those who can row four miles and
they must have the build and condition
to do It The oarsmen would fall in the
boat in a mile race Just as well II they
were not in condition. What are our
crews training for? For a four-mile
race? They could train for another dis
tance just as well"
