MIKE ODOWD FAVORITE
IN BOUT WITH CLARKE

CAMDEN. ". J.. May mike
o'Dowd. of St. Paul. worlds middle
weight champion, is ruling a favorite
to win from Jackie Clark, of Allen
town. Pa, when they meet at the
Camden Sporting Club here on May
II. ODowd's recent victories over
many of the most prominent middle
weights in the country is the reason
for this stand by the shrewd boxing
followers. However, Clarke's good
showing has made many friends for
him, and 1t is admitted that he has
chance.
In addition to the O'Dowd-Clark
scrap, Willie Jackson, of New York

Even should the midshipmen win
season with a cleanup at the Amer
lean Henley on May 20, their title may
not be so clear as last year, however.
as they do not meet Yale and Cornell.
Should either or both OF these crews
remain undefeated, the Navy may not
be able to claim an undisputcd title.
Every effort was made to bring Yale
to Annapolis, and it was thought that
the race had been arranged, but Yale
declined to make the trip.
A very interesting thing about the
Navy varsity crew this year is the
evenness of its oarsmen as to weight
and height. The average weight of
the crew is 177% pounds, the heaviest
man, King. weighing but 1S2 pounds,
while the lightest, Jacomini. at bow,
weighs ia.
The tallest men on the crew are
Jordan, No. 3, and Sanborn, No. 4,
each being six feet and two inches,
while the shortest are Renard, No. .;
Graves. stroke, and Weidman, No. Z,
each OF whom is an even six feet
1t is doubtful if any college crew
in the history OF rowing was better
balanced as to weight, height and
general build. A recent change, the
transfer OF Captain Graves, from No
4 to stroke, in place of Clyde King,
who goes to Graves old place, puts
additional weight in the body of the
boat. where IL belongs.
The crew as whole is moving in
splendid rhythm, to which their simi-
larity of build contributes greatly
Upon the whole Glendon undoubtedly
has one of the best crews he has ever
developed.
Heavier Than First Crew.
The second and plcbe, or freshmen,
crews are slightly heavier than the
varsity. and not made up quite so
evenly. Both have already shown their
mettle by the defeat of the Harvard
crews in their class.
or interest in connection with the
showing of the plcbe crew is the fact
that il was largely coached by young
Dick Glendon, son OF the head coach
at the academy, who is now assisting
his father. That he is likely to follow
in the success OF the elder Glendon is
shown by the fine race which they
rowed a week ago Saturday.
Next Saturday, May 8, Columbia
will row here with varsity, second
and freshmen crews, and Syracuse will
bring its varsity and freshmen to An
napolis on May II.
This will end the local racing sea-
son and give two weeks for special
preparation for the American Henley,
at Philadelphia, on May 20, in which
the Naval Academy will be represent
ed by varsity, second, plebe or fresh
men and 150-pound crews.
