COLLEGE ROWING
 CIRCLES UPSET BY
 NEW REGULATIONS

New York Feb. 5-College rowing problems have for the last few weeks been buffeted about like a cork on the ocean, with such a storm of advice and opinions and decisions from all angles that it is difficult to imagi ne how any crew management can plan the spring season with any degree of certainty Harvard and Cornell are at odds over a date for their annual meeting; either Columbia or Prince ton or both may be substituted on tie Cambridge schedule for the Courtney eight Plans for holding the Childs Cup race at Philadelphia as an event of the American Henley regatta have run foul of opposition from Columbia and Princeton.
 New eligibility rules, aimed as a welcome to high and preparatory school oarsnen, but as barrier to club watermen, have been devised by the Poughkeepsie stewards. This same body has taken a long deferred and radical step to decrease the main event on the upper Hudson from four to three miles, yet the outcome is by no means certain of being a complete success. All in all. rowing enthusiasts, including the official authorities and lesser lights, have now colossal task to unravel the tangles and get clear for active operations.
 As the Poughkeepsie regatta for 1917 now stands, the score of the re- cent action by the stewards in reduc- ing the big race to a three-mile dis tance is one lost. one won, and three uncertainties. Princeton will not com pete, according to last weeks decision at Tigertown to row only on home waters of the crews.
 This will be received as a, disap- pointment by the Poughkeepsie mo- guls, for, although the reduction was not voted as bait for the huskies of Dr. Spaeth, it was an open secret that the stewards believed a shorter race would induce Princeton to cast her rowing fortunes with the upper Hud- son group of crews The victory comes in the decision of Wisconsin again to become a competing eight at Poughkeepsie. Two years ago the Badgers abolished both intercollegiate and four-mile rowing, but they were quick last week to follow the stew ards announcement with a decision to enter the Hudson classic in 1918.
 What the Pacific Coast crews will decide remains the uncertainty. A month ago the Stanford, Cal. and Washington arrangements announced in succession that each would enter next June's regatta if victorious in the April races for the Coast champion ship. But such promise was on the presumption of a four-nile race at Poughkeepsie. Whether the Far Westerners, will now stand by their offer of .co-operation is uncertain. Tn the present outlook, and because of the recent discovery that Syracuse has not alone benefited by the use of former club oarsmen, there now ex- ists little doubt that Jim Ten Eyck' s Orangemen will get a cordial invita- tion to row June 21 at Poughkeepsie.

Park Commission Protests Delay In
 Setting Off Sites

The second biennial report of the Connecticut State Park Commission, covering the period ending Sept. 30, 1916, is now in print.
 Two appropriations hitherto made for. the purchase of land, $20.000 each, have permitted only the feeblest be- ginnings, while the few possible sites yet remaining on the salt water front are rapidly being cut up into lots and buildings are being erected on land which must eventually be included within any satisfactory system of State Parks.
 It does not seem to be realized that State Parks do not consist of foun- tains and flower beds and gravel walks curving gracefully through vel vet lawns. State Parks can never be constructed or developed as City Parks may be, in the places that are left over as the city stretches out, but are intended, like the National Parks, to preserve and open to the public the principal natural beauties of the State. They must, if they are to be worthy of the State, include the best examples of such natural beauty, and it is now about forty years too late to secure such sites with the funds thus far available
 Massachusetts and New York have each expended about $20,000,000 on such work, and the people of New York have just voted by a large ma jority to issue bonds to the amount of $1O,O0O,00O more for the purchase of additional lands though the State Parks and Forests of New York would to-day cover more than half of our State. Niagara Falls, Saratoga Springs, the ,Catskills and Adiron- dacks, the Palisades and Highlands of the Hudson River, are among the things which the people of New York have bought and, paid for and set aside for their own use, and time has already abundantly proven their wis dom
 Connecticut has no wonders like Mi agara, and no mountains like those in New York, but there are certain lakes and mountains, portions of the Con- necticut River, and stretches of sea shore. which are notable and beauti- ful, and they are within the reach of the people of Connecticut, not all of whom can go to Niagara or the Yel- lowstone. A real forest hardly exists to-day in Connecticut, only one good sample being known to few who are especially interested, and no real for ests are likely to be developed under private ownership, not because they cannot be grown, but because railroad ties and telegraph poles do not require plarge sized trees.
 The Park Commission has studied the whole situation for more than three years, and is convinced that the most a expensive and extravagan1 course which the State can pursue 1s 1 that of further delay.

Iris Speaker Thinks
 Golf Is Great Help to His Batting Eye

Cleveland, Feb 4-Tris Speaker says golf is the best game in the world for ball player-that it helps the batting eye, keeps a chap on edge and gives just the mild exercise a player needs.
 Iris played golf every time he could get a chance last season. He often motored to one of the many Cleveland course just as soon as he had finished his breakfast, negotiated the IS holes and returned for lunch feeling fit as a fiddle and ready for strenuous afternoon at League park.
 Until last year Ty Cobb was golf bug, but he played very little during the 1916 championship season be- cause he feared it would affect his hitting. Speaker led the American league in batting last season. He be- lieves that playing golf helped him do it, and proposes to mix golf with baseball next year.
 Few managers obect to their play CTS taking a shot at golf-some of them advise it. Rowing, too, is a sport ball players have taken up with a vengeance, and there are a number of high class pin-smashers among the
 
 big leaguers.
 Fred Falkenberg. formerly of the Cleveland club, was better than the average bowler. Ray. Morgan, of the Washington Senator's is a star. South paw Eddie Plank, of the St. Louis Browns, is also a good man and holds the record at duck pins for the only alleys in. Gettysburg. Pa, his home town.
 Many players do not care for the big pins-they would rather shoot at the ducks because the size and weight of the ball is nearer the weight of a baseball.
 Basketball and football are posi- lively under the ban for the profes- sional ball players. There is too much danger of injury in both of these games, especially basketball as played by some of the strong semi pro teams in the East.
 Ball players themselves have come to realize that they owe it to them selves to sidestep all dangerous sports during the off season. There are few who are willing to take such chances these days, for competition is always keen, and unless a player reports in fit shape to start the season there is usually somebody else to step right into his shoes

Johnny Griffin Beat
 Billy Murphy in, 1893

Johnny Griffin, one of the greatest of the featherweights of quarter of century ago, and Australian Billy Murphy, another of the good little fellows, mingled in New York on Feb. 6, 1893, Griffin winning the ar gument by landing a knockout in the seventh round. Murphy had been champion for a little while in 1890, after knocking out Ike Weir in San Francisco, but he didn't hold the honor long. Griffin, "the Braintree lad" claimed the title in 1891, but George Dixon, the colored fighter, was generally recognized as the leader of the division.
 Griffin had previously fought Mur- phy in San Francisco, and had been knocked out in the third round, but he turned the tables in their second meeting. Later in 1893 Griffin fought Solly Smith at Roby, Ind, and was knocked out. After several other bouts, the Braintree lad met George

EMPIRE.
A Chat with Vivian Martin.

T am very glad that colds don't photograph" smiled the charming Pallas- Paramount star, Miss Vivian Martin, as she sat in her dainty dressing room beside the huge stage at the Morscoe studio 'sIf colds did photograph. 1 don't believe I would ever work again, because, for the past three months life has been just one cold after another. Some colds come, and some colds go but mine goes on forever The latest one,--the one I have with me now-I caught when I was taking The Wax Model You see II was supposed to pose for a sculptor as the Awakening of Spring and some how OF other Spring seems always awake with her Winter clothes entirely gone, and just a few draper ies adorning her. wish some artist would have Spring awaken in a bath robe or nice warm kimona, but it seems that Springs awakening is not accompanied, with much of a ward robe, so while, was posing there was plenty of room for me to catch cold in fact. that was pretty nearly all l had to hide my shrinking form be- hind.
 T don't know. why it is, but these demons of scenario, writers always write Arctic stuff where you run around in heavy mackinaws and furs in the summer time-arld for winter they have beautiful stories laid in South Africa and the tropics where you are supposed to run around in very diaphanous costumes, and frieze to death. If they could just turn their brains ar ound and fit the story to the season, how perfectly lovely it would be. The coldest day California had seen in twenty years, I had to run around in a thin ball gown and sit and fan myself by the hour, and really my poor teeth were. cfatterirlg so that you could have heard them block away.

PLAZA

We dol1bt if it is exaggerating in the feast to describe the Plaza's bill for the first half of the week as the best to be offered in that playhouse in months and that is saying a great deal.
 Every feature of the program is a star attraction in every sense of the term. although Mcintosh and his Mu- .sicaI Maids hold the headline honors The latter number is Scotch singing, dancing and instrumental offering that is certainly a credit to MT. Mcintosh, who has always won the favor of local vaudevillians through the excellence of his productions. The act could not fail to delight any who have an ear for 1nusic,. so to speak,. and yesterday audiences voiced their appreciation IT outbursts of vociferous applause. r Beatrice Mckenzie and company had an exquisite singing and whistling fantasy that was gratifyingly differ ent from the usual variety entertain nsaent. Beatrice is a strikingly beau tfful and magnetic young woman and her charms are greatly enhanced by the gorgeous wardrobe she displays Tn har many costume changes She has a remarkable voice and her company gives her. able support in the pretty repertoire she has arranged and into which several, pleasing novelties have been introduced The whistIing mum bers deserve especial mention.v .sa
 "A Breath Of New Italy" another novelty in singing and musical diver sions,. but with plenty of excruciating hunor interspersed liberally, is the scoring vehicle of a clever team who answer to the stage cognomens or Granville and Mack and in conjunc- ton with a dainty wire walking of feripg in the hands of Irma and Con nors that took yesterdays enthusiasts by storm, makes up really delightful vaudeville program.
 Money Magic" Is the title of the photoplay feature in which are starred rse1ith Storey, Antonio Moreno and William Duncan in roles that serve them we'll. -Esss story Is one that should interest the most fastidious film fan for it's plot is novel and the al-important thrills have not been overlooked in staging the production. which is in five acts. ss

Anuscment3
POLES

There's photoplay at Polls, the first half of the, week, that alone war rants a visit to the theatre. It is "The Darling of Paris" starring Theda aBra, the we'll known dramatic star.
 Founded on Victor Hugos s"The Hunchback of Notre Dame,'' the film drama sThe Darling of Paris" was arranged in six parts as one of the new super de luxe' features from the Fox studios. It is chock full of interest and certainly comes up to all the nice things said about it in ad- vance. Miss Bara has role unlike any that she has heretofore attempt ed, and it brings out her real worth as true dramatic artist.
 The Hearst -Pathe News, with some timely views anent the international situation, is another interesting film feature.
 The vaudeville program, too, is one that merits real praise. Hello, Japan a comic opera in miniature presents a happy musical fantasy of the Far East in a manner that is alto- gether delightfu1i
 tJust For Instance is the title of snappy little comedy that won laughing honors.
 Clifford and Wills, in a happy me- lange of songs and dances found no trouble in registering pronounced hit, while Erne and Ernie, in three feet of comedy,p were. as welcome as ever Mr. Ernie. despite the handi- cap of having but one leg, manages to do some unusual things. in B danc- ing way.
 The Ballyhoo Three, with their side show skit that included songs, comedy and acrobats. completed the bill with splendid. offering.
