 RACE IS ON TODAY

 ResoIutc First Around.
 Resolute turned the first mark at 2:34:47 and sped away on the sec ond ten mile leg, q reach out to sea.
 The green sloop followed the de- fender around the first mark at 2:S6:5S
 At 2:45 the yachts had sailed 3 miles of the second leg with Reso- lute leading by half a mile and going strong. The wind had in- creased 10 12 knots.
 In starting the second leg Resolute took off her baby jib topsail a minute before turning the mark and broke out reaching jib one minute after rounding. Shamrock was nearly three minutes in setting her reaching jib sail.
 15 Knot Breeze.
 The wind increased to IS knots at p. m. and the yachts for the first time in the 1920 regatta were tear ing through the water. Shamrock seemed unable measurably to cut down Resolute's lead in the first five miles of the second leg.
 At 2:55 Shamrock seemed to be cutting down Resolutc's lead and the race became exciting.
 At 3:10 the yachts had sailed two- thirds of the second leg.
 With only a third of the second leg to go Resolute was reported by the press boat to be still leading but by only a minute and a half. Sham rock was gaining but very gradually.

Jenney May Take
Place of Duncan
AS Harvard Stroke
From, a Special Correspondent

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 27.-Now
that the Harvard varsity baseball team
and crew are at work in their own
fields of activity great improvement is
expected to be shown from now on.
The crew rowed Friday from the Newell
boathouse after ten days practice
session on the tidewater at Lynn. The
ball squad returned to Soldiers Field
for a practice game with the second
nine this afternoon, after spending a
week in daily jaunts to the Middlesex
School cage.
The varsity crew is now rowing in
this order: Stroke, Duncan; No. z,
Terry; No. 6, McCagg; No. 5, Sedgwick;
No. 4, Olmsted; No. 3, Burden; No. 2,
Kane; bow, Captain Davis; cox, Pier
son. There is possibility that Jenney,
the second crew stroke, may replace
Duncan for the initial race with the
Naval Academy on the Severn on
April "a.
The varsity infeld has narrowed
down to Austin Blair, first base; Cap
tain Emmons, second base; Arthur Con-
lon, short stop, and Eddie Lincoln, third
base. Jere Murphy has the call behind
the bat, with Babe FELTON,, Carl Harri-
son and Everett Hardell as the leading
pitchers.
The outfelders will be Kenneth Per
kins, Dick Hallowell and either Babe
rockingham or Leonarl Hallock.

White Wins High Jump
and Feather the Ham
mer Against Cambridge

LONDON, March 27.--Two American
Rhodes scholars helped Oxford mate
rally in defeating Cambridge here this
afternoon in the first dual intervarsity
track and field games to be held by the
rival universities since March, 1914.
The final score was Oxford 51s events
Cambridge AZ events, first places only
counting in the meet
H. S. White, formerly of Bowdoin
College, won the running high jump for
Oxford in easy fashion with a leap OF
8 feet'7 inches, and Immediately fol-
lowed with an exhibition jump in which
he added two inches to his perform
ance.
L. j. Feather, an American Rhodes
scholar from the University of Utah,
won the hammer throw for the Dark
Blue with throw of 100 feet IL inches
This was tha one upset of the meet, for
Oxford had expected to win the place
with Noakes, who had been throwing
the hammer better than 40 feet in
preliminary trials.
B. G. 8. Rudd, from South Africa,
also was strong factor in the Oxford
victory, winning the half mile run il.
minute 81 2-5 seconds, and running a
dead heat with Butler, Of Cambridge,
in the 440-yard dash in the excellent
time of 0:49 3-5.
Abrahams, of Cambridge. was the
cnly double winner of the day, captur-
ing both the 100-yard sprint and the
bread jump. There were no notable
performances, considered from a record
standpoint, except the running Of
Montague, of Oxford, in the three lille
race. His time Of IA minutes 45 3-5 Sec
onds cut 62-5 seconds from the pre-
vions track record.
The games were held at the historic

Donovan Makes
Seasons Record
In Shoot Victory

]. P. Donovan did some excellent
shooting at the Travers Island traps of
the New York Athletic Club yesterday.
He took the high scratch prize with
card of 81 out of possible 100 targets,
one of the highest scores that have won
the prize all season.
1t is interesting to note that on his
way to the total Donovan had only one
straight score. 1t was returned in the
monthly cup shoot. the final string of
25 targets Of the day. Donovan also
scored leg on the Buermeyer Cup,
along with G. F. Hutchings. Each had
49 out of possible so targets.
After a shoot-off against half dozen
other nimrods, the high handicap prize
was taken by O. c. Grinnell. The Trav-
ers Island Trophy went to ]. Williams.
AS usual, legs on the regular weekly
events were scored by nimrods with
full scores of 25 targets. There were
no special shoots nor ghost trophy
race yesterday.
A field Of ,ffty-ive gunners was on
the firing line. The conditions were
not particularly difficult, and there was
an unusually large number of straight
scores. AL. Burns ran straight in the
Travers Island Cup. In the Haslin Cup
race straights were made by w. S. Silk
worth and T. H. Lawrence. G. w.
Hutchings made perfect score in the
the trick in the shoot for the monthly
cup.
The scores made yesterday are as fol-

Navy Varsity
Grew Ligghtest
In Many Years
Midship,nen Getting Ready
for Tussle With Har-
ward Giants Next Month
From a Special Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, March 27.-Delight-
full weather the whole week has
enabled the different athletic teams at
the Naval Academy to make rapid prog
ress. Coupled with this, there has been
none of the bad luck which last year
interfered with the progress of the
crew and the baseball nine.
Coach Dick Glendon touched wood"
Wednesday afternoon as he spoke of
the earlier coming of favorable condi-
tions and the fact that the crew had
escaped all sickness, even the epidemic
of boils which frequently attacked the
oarsmen and which proved serious
handicap last season. Billy Lush's base
ball candidates also have been favored
with good weather
The rowing squad and those in
other branches have been able to work
for short periods every afternoon dur
, ing the week. Eight squads were on
the water Wednesday, four of them
being composed of upper classmen, the
the plebe class. Keen interest is being
taken in the work, and every member
is looking forward to the visit of the
Harvard oarsmen, which will begin
about April 19. Races will be held on
the 24th between the three crews of
that institution and the Naval Acad-
emy.
The races against the Crimson crews
VIII lnaugurate the rowing season here
and will make up one of the most in
teresting aquatic events of the year
outside of the big regattas. Realizing
the strength of Navy crews of recent
years, Harvard, it has been learned, is
making unusual efforts to develop a
varsity eight Of great power, and the
present crew averages 1873 pounds.
This is much heavier than the Acad-
emy crew. At present the latter does
! not average more than 175 pounds.
The Naval Academy crew will prob
ably be several pounds lighter to the
past. and it will undoubtedly be lighter
than that Of last year. Bill Ingram,
the. powerful stroke of last year,
weighed more than 200 pounds. while
Clyde King, who is taking his place, is
twenty pounds lighter. However, King,
who is football man, like Ingram, is
strong and rugged, and Glcndon is
much pleased with the work he is
doing.
While the opening of the Naval
Academy rowing season is delayed
beyond that of most of the other row
ing colleges, it will be lively ono
when it does start, four big races
coming on successive Saturdays. On
May ] the Union Boat Club of Boston,
will row at Annapufis; on May 8
Columbia will oppose the Midshipmen,
and Syracuse will finish the local sea-
son on May Is. There will then be a
rest Of two weeks for the Navy crews,
and they will finish the rowing season
on May 30 as participants in the
American Henly at Philadelphia.
New-York tribune., 1920-03-28
Material Almost Entirely
Unseasoned; First Race
With Yale 8 April "a

Coach jim Rice of Columbia is con-
fronted by the task of building a var
sity crew in less than a month from
material almost entirely green and un-
seasoned. The opening race of the sea-
son will be with Yale April "a on the
Housatonic, and before that time the
veteran Blue and White rowing tutor
has to fashion an eight from the small
number of candidates at his disposal.
Nearly all Of the time before the Yale
race will be spent in outdoor workouts
on the Harlem, which Rice and his var
sity crew essayed for the first time last
Friday. The menacing presence of a
flock of miniature icebergs kept the
practice down and only the first boa,
took to the water, in addition to one
bargeful of freshmen.
The crew that threaded its way
among the Harlem ice field is still a
long distance from the form that will
be called for against Yale. There was
the natural raggedness and splashing
that accompanies every first practice on
the river, and it was impossible to
Judge accurately concerning the poten-
tai strength in the boat. The only fact
that stands out is that the port side is
the stronger and will give Rice less
trouble than his starboard. which is
still in doubt in at least one and prob
ably two positions.
FRANKLIN Brodil's involuntary depart
ure from the varsity because of .aeli-
gl6ihty under the one-year rule has
LETT big gap, although the freshman
eight will be strengthened by this ,urn
of events
Bob Curry, the former varsity oars
man. is one of the strongest rowers
on the port side. Captain Dune Leys
is showing his usual strength and
smoothness. The starboard oarsmen
are Herman, Helwig, Van Houten and
owinburne, and all have had expert
ence except Van Houten, who before
TINS season was never in q she'll
Elaborate plans to house and feed
the varsity oarsmen are now being
drawn up at Columbia. One of the
features OF the new program will be a
training table in the Gould boathouse
on the Hudson River, at the foot of
l16th Street. The oarsmen also will
have quarters there
Three Weeks at Poughkeepsie
This plan is modelled on that in
force at the Columbia boathouse at
lroughkeepsie; which is used only in
the two or three weeks preceding :ne
annual Hudson River classic. While
the oarsmen are working on the Har-
lem they will get the same training
schedule that formerly was reserved
TOT the big race of the year. and there
VIII be no break in the regime when
the crews are transported to the up
per Hudson for the final test.
Inc crews probably will move to
foughkeepsie on June 10, three weeks
before the regatta. This will give
hlce his usual time for applying the
finishing touches to his men on the
actual course itself.
