Refuses to Quit Baseball

TOLEDO, May 24-Chafng under
the restraint placed on his training
work, Jack Dempsey to- day finally per
suaded Manager Kearns and JIMMY
Deforest, his chief trainer, to permit
him to box two rounds with Bill
late, his giant negro sparring part
ner.
The challenger cuffed Tate around
the outdoor ring to the delight of 400
visitors, but neither exchanged any
damaging blows. 1t was the first box
ing Dempsey has done with his heavv-
weight partners.
despite the warning of q possible
INJURY to his hands, Dempsey has de-
cllned ito drop baseball from the train

engaged IN a game of 'one o. cat" this

Regatta of Harlem Club
Opens Yachting Campaign

The yacht racing season of 1919 will
start next Friday with the annual open
regatta Of the Harlem Yacht Club
What the year is going to bring forth
IS still a mystery. Although lengthy
schedule of races ha been arranged
for both Long Island Sound and
Gravescnd Bay, the list Of dates does
not necessarily mean a brilliant year.
Still, it should be an interesting season
and more than satisfactory when one
takes into consideration the difficulties
under which yachtsmen are working.
Not only did the war put an end to
practically all racing in the East, but
this spring yachtsmen have found it
exceedingly difficult to put their boats

Ouimet's Game

Ouimct undoubtedly has the soundest
all-around game of any American ANA
teur. Who're Travers had certain
weakness from the tee, and where
Evans had 8 certain weakness around
the greens, Ouimet's game is strong
throughout.
He is fine, sure hitter from the tee
and a steady, dependable putter, at
times reaching brilliant heights. He
has no apparent weakness, once he has
the chance to practise and get going
Wood or iron, the short pitch or the
chip shot, he takes them all in his
stride. In playing his tee shots he
stands with the left foot slightly ad-
vsnced beyond the right. He takes his
stance we'll back from the ball, where
ne can get his best leverage for the
blow. He stands further away than
almost any OF the leading golfers, but
ne has q good height and long arms
and 60 finds this to his liking.
He has full, free, easy swing-a
back swing that comes back with fine
rhythm, but one that is never hurried.
He gives the impression Of power from
the moment he takes his stance.
Hc wastes very little time over anv
shot. He has his mind made up as he
reaches his ball-and then steps up
and hits it. He is the same way in his
putting. You never see him fussinr
over his puts, whore with him it is
simply glance to get the linc--and
then hit the ball
You Will also note that in nearly all
his chip shots and his approach puts
he gives the ball chance to drop. He
Ia rarely short and there are times
when he leaves himself three and four
footers to be holcd coming back.

Improved Quaker Eight
TO Meet Old Rivals in
Henley on Schuylkill
BY DR.. Walter Peet

The regatta of the American Rowing
, Association-the American Henley
which will be nerd next Saturday at
Philadelphia. will be the biggest meet
Of the spring. There will be events
open to the universities and races for
the Intercollegiate amateur boat clubs
The most important clash, and the
one in which the boating world is in
tensely Interested, is that which will
bring Joe Wright's properly rowing
and polished University of Pennsyl-
vania combination and Dick Glendon's
wonder crew of the United States Ma
val Academy together again. The
Syracuse varsity also will row in this
race.
The Middies, in the first race Of the
season, rowing on their own course, won
handily from the Quakers. Also with
consummate ease they have run away
from Harvard and Princeton on one
occasion, and from Syracuse on an
other. The Severn differs decidedly
from any other stretch in qualities
which make for good she'll water. The
river often is rough and is full of
eddles. 1t goes without saying that
rowing on home waters is big ad-
vantage.
This time conditions will be re-
versed. Pennsylvania will be on her
own placid Schuylkill. where the going
is exactly to her liking and where she
knows every foot of the course.
Quaker Crew Improves
The Philadephians ave improved
and are going much faster than when
at Annapolis. and their easy victories
since then from Yale on the Housa-
tonic and from Princeton and Column
bia in the Childs Cup race have brought
back the confidence that was tcmporar-
lily crimped on the Severn. Penn will
go into this race with the Middies with
the greatest determination and with
full expectation of winning, and these
two great crews may split even once
more. as was the case last year.
The majority of neutral and perfect
ly disintcrested followers of the sport
are inclined to hope that the Quakers
will nose out the Middias. as they
think that Joe Wright's boys are row
ing according to better principles. Ger
talnly, while in action and under high
pressure, they are most pleasing to
the eye. Without in the least detract-
ing from Glendon's good teaching, it
must be said that the Navy has a much
stronger set of men than has Penn.
and tkis coach has each member of his
crew physically fit
An outstanding feature of the work
OF the college crews this year is the
number and frequency of the changes
which have been ordered in the make
up of the majority of the combinations.
OF comparatively late years, since, the
early season races have been inaugu-
rated, it has become the custom Of
coaches of defeated crews to make
change in the nersonnel. and often 10
