CAMBRIDGE WINS
OVER OXFORD EIGHT
Light Blue Defeats Old Rivals
Through Desperate Struggle
in Annual Contest.

LONDON, March 31.-The Cam
bridge eight yesterday won a victory
over the oxford oarsmen by a scant
length in one of the closest and hard
est races ever rowed on the Thames
between Putney and Mortlake. The
official time was nineteen minutes
forty-four seconds.
There never was more than a length
separating the boats from start to
finish. Cambridge led at the begin
ming. oxford, howsver, went into
first position at the mile and
quarter mark, but retained the lead
by only a slight advantage until the
Cambridge oarsmen plowed the waters
with their oars and shot their boat
ahead and won by hard effort.
BY winning the toss the Oxon'ans
got the better position. but this was
insufficient to overcome the super
iority of the Cambridge men, which
was evident in the condition of the
crews at the finish. Here the light
blues padded their sEell to the boat
house after a minutes rest, while a
majority of the OXonians, including
+. Il. Lothrop, who rowed No. 2 on
last years Harvard varsity eight,
fell over their oars exhausted. 1t
was five minutes before the Oxonians
gathered themselves together and
padded to their boathouse.

Maroon Team Is. At, Virginia
With Georgetown and C.
U. in Prospect.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, March 1.
The Fordham University baseball
team Is here on its first game of n
three-day jaunt in the South. The
Maroon athletes open their season
against the University of Virginia
team this afternoon and meet George
town and Catholic Universities on
Friday and Saturday.
Fifteen players, including four
pitchers, five infelders, like num-
be rof outfielders and a brace of
catchers, are on the trip.
Coach Arthur Devlin made sudden
shift in his plans yesterday after
noon. when he stationed Fallon at
third base in place Of Vergara, whose
inability to hit consistently caused
the change. Fallon is a good hitter
and should improve considerably in
his defensive work.
Tim Mcnamara, the Maroon pitch
ing ace, who held the Federal Reserve
Bank team to a single safety in a
practice game last Saturday, will hurl
against Virginia this afternoon.
Culloton will probably occupy the
mound against Georgetown on Friday
and Waters will probably pitch
against Catholic University on Satur-
day. Waters was the mainstay of the
Fordham team last gear, winning nine
straight games

Club Calls Meeting for Tomor-
row Night for Important
Baseball Announcements.

All the candidates of the Aloysius
baseball team are requested to attend
the special meeting that Athletic
Director Johnson has called for to-
morrow night April l at 8 o'clock
All members are invited to be pres
ent as Johnson has something i'm,
portant to tell them. The Aloysians
have not been out or the field yet,
though they expect to make their ap-
pearance this coming Sunday. They
may also enter the proposed Ncrth-
east League.
The Aloysius team will have its first
workout OF the season this Sunday
when all the candidates will report in
their togs at the club at a. m.
Manager Wolfe has not as yet had
chance to look over his material
but he will be afforded the op-
portunity Sunday and ii is expected
that two teams will be chosen and
practice game played. Reports have
1t that the Aloysians have listed with
their team some of the best per-
formers in this section. The men
that represented them last year will
be out again this year. but they will
have to show some exceptional ball
playing. to retain their former posi-
tions as the newcomers are reputed
as fast players.
IL Is not known whether the
Aloysius Club will place their team
in the proposed Northeast league un-
til a league meeting. Should the
league play games on Saturday and
Sunday, 1t is more than likely that
the Aloysius Club will enter.
An attractive schedule is \ being
arranged by Manager Wolfe. The
games, including some with the best
aggregations around Washington will
start shortly. Manager Wolfe would
tke to hear from all fast teams. He
can be reached at AZ Eye street north
west, or by phoning Franklin 1856

THE LEAGUE OF SCHOLARS
ev DR. FRANK CRANE tCopyright. 1921. by Prank Crane,

Perhaps the best way toward the eventual unity of the world which will be the only ultimate guarantee against and the destruction of civilization will not after all be found through politics.
 It may come through the other great channels of human activity which by their very nature do not recog nize the sentiment of patriotism but based upon the broad foundation of humanity.
 Such are science, art letters, and commerce.
 There is nationasm nor race pride in sciepvS tfc fact in creation of artistic beauty, in great wolk of literature, or in making money
 One commendabe gesture toward unity is that which may be found in the activities of the American Field Service Fellowships for French Universities.
 This is an organization of American citizens the purpose of which to send certain number of scholars every year to France where they may be educated in the broad fields of culture to be found there.
 This is farseeing effort to perpetuate among fu- ture generations of French and American youth the tual understanding and fratenal spirit which marked their relations during the war
 It is an amalgamation of the Society for American Fellowships in French Universities and the American Field Service.
 Ambassador Jusserand and the Hon. Myron T. Herrick enthusiastically approve of the plan.
 The Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts has ordered the transfer of unexpended fund of appro mately 2,400O00 francs belonging to the American Field Service to this organization the annual income to be used for the award of felowships
 The organization hopes to raise permanent en- dowment sufficiently large to endow fellowship for each of the 127 members of the American Field Servce who fell in the
 Anything that can cement the relations which so heartily existed between Europe and America during the great conflict and make of them basis for the solid ary of civilization will be of immense value to the fu ture of the race In the short period of eighteen months since the formal establishment of the organization the fellow ship plan has obtained the full favor of the American university world
 Surely this plan of providing intellectual leadf ership in America that shall have the larger view and the saner outlook will be numbered of the best ways to carry the work of world unity which was begun in the war.
