Date Set for Coast Repatta.


 The University of Washington crew probably will race the crews of Stanford and California on the Oakland Estuary on April 14, ac- cording to Manager Arthur Young, or of the university associated stu dents, who has received a telegram from Manager John Stroud, of Cal Ifornia, saying that this was the only date on which 1t was possible tor Stanford to row.
 "The necessity of dredging near the Stanford boathouse makes them lose twenty-five days during the rowing season." said the telegram, "and they absolutely refuse to row previous to April IA, as they cannot get their crew ready. There is a heavy sea and wind in the af- ternoon, making race at that time impossible"

 There have been wild guesses rel evant to the Mutual's profits on it's Chaplins. but that a sum in excess of Sl.000,000 will be cleared by the end Of the Chaplin fiscal year seems certain. At the end of the first six months the bookings for the year then amounted to $1,3O0,- 900. It was originally figured the production cost Of the twelve Chap lin pictures would be $2O0,O0O which added to his salary ran up to nearly $900,OOO.
 While the cost Of production has exceeded the estimate, the increase of bookings and the sale of foreign rights even matters. The price of the English rights was $500, ,OOO, while $l5O.O0O was obtained for Au- stralia. It Is said the bookings in
