HENLEY REGATTA
IS CALLED OFF
Philadelphia's Grew Classic
Cancelled Because of the
War Conditions
MANY OARSMEN ENLIST

The American Henley is off 1t was to
have been the rowing classic of the season
in Philadelphia.
The regatta was scheduled to be rowed
over the Schuylkill on, May H. The board
of stewards of the race held n special meet
ing in this city and decided to cancel the
event for this year because of the war con-
ditons.
For years the Henley has been the center
of attraction to college and club oarsmen
throughout the country. Last year six col
lege events found place in the regatta in
addition to numerous club and high school
races.
The Childs Cup race, in which the varsity
crew of Princeton trumphed over Column
bia, Penn and the Navy, was the stellar
event of last years regatta. The special
senior eight-oared race between Nesper
Malta and Undne also played star role.
The stewards decided to call off this great
rowing gathering because of the withdrawal
of many of the best entries, Princeton, CO.
lumbia. Yale and Harvard have all dis
banded their crews.
Many of the club oarsmen already have
enlisted and the crews are disrupted. For
thought it feasible to abandon this year s
regatta.
The abandonment of the American Hen
ley regatta makes the Penn-Navy race on
April 81 the last scheduled collegiate race.
All other universities except Penn and the
Navy have Cancelled their rowing schedules.

Discussing the continuation of football

Too many events can take place now in

set up the future for any target practice.
Good pitching is undoubtedly more im=

they should win in canter.
A number of our leading ball players are
willing enough to be pro-Amercans as
long as they are not called upon to be pro-

limit.

WHOLE PROGRAM OF SPORT OUGHT
TO BE PUT UP TO WAR OFFICIALS
BEFORE BEING ABOLISHED HASTILY
By GRANTLAND RICE

THE settlement of sports future pro.
L gram-both in collegiate and profess
sional lines-seems to be the simplest mat
ter in the world
A football squad is directed by foot
ball coach a baseball team is directed by
a baseball manager; so the technical part
of a war ought to be run by the War De-
partment.
This being so. the entire program should
be put up to the War Department for an
answer-as to whether sport should be dis
continued or whether it should be MAIN
tanned for the common good
Army and Navy headquarters In sport at
West Point and Annapolis have already
given the bulk of the reply.
The War Department should know what
it wants Following the departments re-
quest would then be the simplest thing In
the realm.
If the universal service bill is passed the
War Department is going to take the men
it wants for service.
Those who are not taken and who do not
go can still help in any number of ways,
Here is one suggestion: All golf and tennis
tournaments-even to invitation AFFAIRS
should have an entrance fee.
This fee in place of being applied TO
prizes should be turned over to army and
navy or Red Cross funds. In this way not
only would physical training be maintained
but thousands of dollars could be easily
raised in the next six months. Sport In this
way could be made to contribute financially
| to the war-and to the physical health oil
| the nation at home--leaying the reserve
forces in better shape for second call to
| service.
| A Fanatic Arises to Inquire
| Dear Sir-kindly explain this. The
| Giants are being picked far and wide as
leading National League favorites. lr
| many places they are being entered as sure
| winners. Now in baseball it is we'll known
that a pitching staff is the most important
| department of club. 1t is a.so well known
| that Brooklyn. Philadelphia and Bostor
have better pitching than the Giants. How
then, are the Giants going to beat out three
| clubs with better pitching? Last year De
| troit averaged run a game more thar
Boston. This is a wide margin. But Bos
| ton, with better pitching, won. Unless thu
Giants get far better pitching than. the.
