HARVARD WON'T DEFEND
GRAND CHALLENGE CUP

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. April 5.-Harr
ward University probably will have
amateur rowing regatta at worces-
ter in July, with a Wow to qualifying
for the Olympic regatta in Belgium.
Coach William Haines said today
that he planned to assemble such a
crew Immediately after the Yale-Har-
ward regatta at New London on June
25 from those members of the varsity
and second crews who wish to make
the trip.
All possibility of Harvard's de-
Tending the Grand Challenge Cup,
which IL won at Henley several years
ago, had been abandoned because OF
a conflict of dates, Haines said.
The Washington times., 1920-04-05

Though we believe that the Griff-
men are likely to finish in fifth place,
they hay prove the real surprise OF
the campaign by upsetting much OF
the preseason dope and hiking over
the line much higher.
Looking at Griff's outfield, they
appear a capable trio of heady, fast
veterans, all three fine base runners
at least 200 hitters asd clean field
ers. If Croft were as sure of his in
field as he must be of his gardeners,
he might rest easier nights.
With but one veteran infielder,
Judge, at first, the inner quartet will
be a puzzle until shaken down by
actual experience. Harris, ONeill,
and Shannon or Ellerbe, however,
shape up right now distinctly better
than their predecessors of year
ago.
Pitching Should BE Fair.
While Walter Johnson is sure to
be another wizard on the bill, the re-
mainder of the squad is not in his
class, but the pitching as a whole
should be fair enough. If the new
infield can plug up those yawning
gaps seen Is 1919, the pitching staff
will benefit considerably.
With Charity and Picinich to do
the brunt of the work behind the
plate, Ricardo Torres, the Cuban
catcher, will do bullpen duty most of
the summer, but the staff as whole
is good enough for most purposes.
without going into tfeacherous
mathematics, we would say that the
Washington club is generally strong
er now than it has been in four years,
with it's chances for causing trouble
equally improved.
Luck always plays prominent
part in a major league race. 1t stole
y pennant from Washington In 1917,
an injury to Morgan at the critical
moment permitting the Red Sox to
grab the gonfalon. If Griff has the
luck with him this year, who knows
but what his team may tear up the
dope and scatter it to the four winds.
At the same time, at this writing
the Griffmen shape up more as a
likely fifth or sixth place club.
Indians welIRounded.
The Indians have quite the best
ball club on paper there is to be seen
in either league.
Johnston, Wambsganss, Chapman,
and Gardner former a fine infield,
with good hitters and fielders.
Graney, Speaker. Wood and Smith
rank high as outfielders. both at bat
and in the field. Utility men exist
for all positions.
Steve O'Neill chases Ray Schalk for
the honors of leading the league as a
catcher. Nunamaker and Thomas,
fair receivers and hard hitters, arc
on hand in case steve is i'll or injured.
Speaker faces the coming cam
paign with Covaleskie, Myers. Begby.
Caldwell, Uhle and Morton. right
handlers. and Boehling. Nlehaus, MUIR
Gibson, and Petty, southpaws. The
Indians should have at least four of
this bunch always in shape for work
on the hill, and IL a quartet is able
to deliver the goods, the Indians will
Just about win the banner.

he defeated George Gaillard in ten
rounds, knocked out Wallie Pickard,
and scored his third knockout VIC
tory over Lampin, who was growing
up with him. He went back to Brus-
sells after defeating Lampin and lost
a decision to Buck Shine, after which
he was matched with Young Snow
ball, a tough English boxer, for a
bout at the Paris Wonderland.
Descamps was warned that Young
SNOWFALL was too tough and too
heavy for Georges, but he only
smiled, as usual. Georges faced
SNOWFALL in four of the hottest
rounds he has ever boxed. He took
a severe beating, and at the end OF
the fourth session Descamps tossed
in the sponge.
During the remainder OF that year
Carpenter engaged in eight bouts
and had the satisfaction of knocking
out Young Warner, who had fouled
him in the seventh round of their
first meeting. His most notable bouts
in the lightweight division, however,

team Is extensively the most power
full since Connie Mack's famous 1914
aggregation. Jack Coombs' job Will
be to have the pitchers at all time
ready. If he is successful, the Tigers
should give the Indians a merry hight
all down the line.
The Yankees have fine pitchers,
fair fielders in the infield and several
hard hitters, notably the leagues
greatest slugger, Babe Ruth. but in
ternal dissensions are certain to crop
up to bother Miller Huggins. Lack of
speed may prevent the Yankees from
finishing ahead of the White Sox, but
other II ngs equal they should land
at least as high as they did last year.
The champions start with a pitch
ing handicap, with worries over
salary disputes. a year more on the
shoulders of several neces s"ary yeter-
ans and, probably, minus Gandil and
Risberg. The White Sox are about
ready to be ripped apart and build
up again.
Brownies Are Pesky.
The Griffs should receive most of
their troubles from those pesky st.
Louis Brownies. The Mound City
bunch should make a good fight for
at least half the season, but them
at least half the season, but then

hitters will begin waving instead of

Luck, and luck only, should decide
whether Boston or Philadelphia ends
in the cellar. The Red SoX are
weakest in years and, worse, lack the
spirit that makes a winner. Few
believe the team Will even make
trouble at the start.
Connie Mack has gathered a good

with them a few veterans such as

The Departmental Leaguers usually
wait for Lou Doyle to get things
going. Doyle has been kept SO busy
this winter that he has had little
time to give to tennis with the result
that the big organization is slow in
getting away. War Department has
already lined up a good squad and ex-
poets to repeat in the circuit this sea-
son.
The high schools will get their
