years and when the European war
broke out was N India. In 1915 he
was transferred To Germany and un-
til last June was consul at Dresden.
When he went there he said one could
purchase anything he wished: when
he left there were three or four houses
vacant in every block of the city
which has four hundred thousand in
habitants, and before the slightest
purchase can be made, whether it's a
collar. neCktie or pair of shoes. one
must present a card from the gov
ernment before il can be bought.

Sull, the German people are fat

REACH HOME SDAY
By a S,dG Correspondent

WASHINGTON, April T.
Two directly opposite types Of weather
have been struck this spring by the Phil.
lies. who arrived here this morning with
the intention of working hard at the park
of the Washington team of the American
League to make up tor the time lost this
week. There has been nothing resembling
the Florida brand of weather or sunshine
since Moran's squad left Jacksonville last
tuesday night. For three weeks and half
the Quakers had weather conditions that
were ideal in training. Since they have
encountered weather conditions which have
been daily getting worse. They could not
get up a sweat during the game with Ra-
leigh last Wednesday afternoon They were
drowned out at Durham on Thursday and
weather and ground conditions were
against them when they tried to play the
washington team at Norfolk yesterday
lhe Phil'ies and the Washington players
came here from Norfolk by steamboat, ar
irving early this morning.
Manager Moran has never been an en-
thusiast when it comes to transforming
trips and Pat has had no cause to en-.
muse over the present jaunt of his team
north of the Florida line. He fears that
the lay-offs this week and the decided
change in the weather will seriously affect
his players.
While the main squad OF the Philles will
not leave here until Monday night the two
Cubans-Rodes and Gonzales-who belong
10 the New London club, and Carmichael,

tathcamp and Lutz. leave for PHILADELPHIA

MILITARY GUARDS KEEP WATCH ON
CROWD AT PENN-YALE CREW RACE

Both coaches had their crews out on the
water for a final workout yesterday morn
ing and afternoon and were satisfied to
make it as light as possible Wright
put the Red and Blue eights over the last
quarter of mile of the Henley course
and then gave them several racing starts
The Yale eights took slow paddle up
over the course and then wound up with
short sprints and racing starts.
The weights of the two varsities average
the same at 175 pounds although the Red
and Blue have the advantage of two inches
in height per man over the Ei oarsmen
The Quaker oarsmen are several years older
than the average age of the Blue and White
men. The Yale junior crew has great
advantage over the Penn second team as
II averages eight pounds to the man heavier
than the Red and Blue oarsmen. The Penn
crew, however, is more than an inch taller
that Coach Nickalis men, as Penn stands
six feet and three quarters Of an inch in
height. Yale is five feet eleven inches The
average weight of Yale's junior boat has
been increased by Fox, the No. man. who
stands six feet four inches and weighs 2O4
pounds.
Captain Woll is the only Penn man re-
naming from the crew which raced against
Yale last year. All the other men have
either graduated or are in the junior boat
McNaughton. the No. man in Yale's first
eight. is the only veteran who rowed last
year against Penn.
Yale and Penn have each won one
varsity race during the lase seasons
In 1915 the Ellis succeeded in captur-
ing both events in driving snowstorm.
Last year Penn turned the tables on the
New Havenites in the varsity race and won
| handily. They lost the junior race, how
ever. by a scant third OF a length. The
races last year and the year before were
over the mile -and-a half course but as both
coaches thought that this distance was too
great to row over at this time Of the season,
| 1t was decided to stage the races over the
Henley course. which is $50 yards shorter
| than the mile-anda "a half course.
Both colleges were slow in getting started
| this year with their outdoor practice as
the weather conditions would not permit
| them getting out soon. Penn has been
IN the water for five weeks, while the Yale
| crew succeeded in getting out about a week
before this.
| The Eli oarsmen reached out for the
catch further than the Penn men today, and
| appeared to go further bac. They also
were slower on their slides than the oars
| men in the Penn boats.
Yale won the toss for position for both
| races and selected the course nearest the
| west bank This is the third year that
| the Red and Blue have lost the toss for
| position. Instead of rowing through the
| first arch of the strawberry bridge, both
| eights steered course through the sec
| ond arch from the west shore Stake boats
had been anchored at the start and at the
| bridge to prevent any jockeying Ior crowd
ing.

MILITARY guards, in somber khaki and
AV1 with ominous rifles at hand. added
touch of the war to the first college crew
race Of the season this afternoon when Penn
met Yale on the Schuylkill over the Hen
ley course. The junior crews plunged their
blades In the water at 80 and the varsity
crews went away a half hour later The
start made from Stone Bridge, at the
Falls of Schuylkil. the finish being at Co
lumbla Bridge one and five-sixteenths miles
away.
The Penn Junior crew was chosen by
Coach Wright to row in place Of the var
sity The juniors have been trimming the
varsity lately, and Wright decided to give
them the call His varsity crew was sent
in against the Yale juniors.
The greatest precautions were taken by
the bridge guards against any possible
destruction of the bridges by persons APP
parently interested In the races. Acting
under orders from the Government, news
paper telegraph operators were refused per-
mission tn cut in on the railroad wires. in
order to report the result Of the races.
Spectators were treated alike and those in
small boats were warned about tying up
at the piers.
The river banks presented gay scene.
Hundreds of feminine enthusiasts were
lured out by the smiling skies and prom
enaded in Easter finery. A great burst of
cheering greeted the first race, when the
junior crews took the water and bent broad
backs to strainng blades in the. smooth
waters of the river.
The crews were followed down the river
by scores of small boats most of which
contained student rooters. bawling en-
couragement across the water to the giant
oarsmen straining every muscle to break
into the lead. A big throng gathered on the
Columbia avenue bridge, which marked the
finish.
The races today were the first and last of
the Yale schedule. for Old Eli will cancel
its crew card after today. 1t may be Penn's
last race also unless II is decided to keep
in training and take on the Naval Acad-
emy which will not abandon its schedule
until word is received from Washington Or
dering the move.
This makes the third consecutive year
that the Red and Blue eights have met the
Ellis, although in previous years they have
rowed against one another.
Coach Wright. of the Penn crews, was
still in quandry late in ,the afternoon
as to which crew he would pit against
the Yale varsity, as the junior eight has
been taking the measure of the first crew
in almost all of the match races this year.
The margin Of victory that the juniors have
had over the varsity has been so slight that
Wright believes they are almost evenly
matched.
Coach Meals. of the Ellis, has been hav-
in trouble with his two crews. His juniors
have had no difficulty in winning hands
down from the varsity ever since. the sea =
son opened.
