.CANAD|ANSJ|bE
C,C.PADDLERS,
WHO LAUGH LAST
Capital Crew Wins Two Inter-
national Championships on
ST. Lawrence.

The crew OF the Washington Canoe
Club that went to Canada to compete
In the international canoe champion
ships returned home today with two
championships added to a long list OF
victories.
The senior quad had but one chance
to show their stern to the Canadians
that was in the single blade event.
Ploughing through the rough waters
of the St. Lawrence, the Capital boys
drove their craft in such a way the
Canadians were amazed Coming from
smooth water and taking to the rough
in such a fashion was a real feat. Be.
fore the races were started the pad.
dlers from Washington suffered the
jibes of the men from across the Dor
der and were practically ton they had
made the long run for nothing.
Harry knight. skipper of the crew,
said the Canadians did not figure us
in the game at all. They had heard OF
us at Lake George, but laughed at the
Idea that we would ever win an event.
When we flashed across the line in the
single blade fours they could hardly
realize 1t.
III. Knight Surprises Them.
That the local men were badly han
dicapped by the water conditions was
shown in preparations for the double
blade tours. In telling of this Harry
knight said, I'VE cut a poncho in half
and fastened 1t to the bow of the boat
and around the waist of the No. /
man. This was to keep the solid wa
ter from coming over the coaming and
swapping us. After we had completed
our preparations and were ready, the
water looked too rough even for the
Canadians, who were used to IL, and
the race was called off"
Harry knight helped to upset the
string of victories in the one-mile dou-
ble-blade one-man race. Since 1915 w.
Ireland. of the ireland Aquatic Asso-
ciatin. Toronto, Canada, had been taxi
ing the first place in this event. He
was the favorite in this years meet.
The Canadians backed him to the limit
and good American dollars were
snatched up in the betting. II. Ire
slider, of the Gananoque Canoe Club,
Canada, was first and closely pushed
by Harry knight, of the Washington
Canoe Club, as second and the favorite
was a poor third.
In the cruising class one-man single
blade race r. Rutherford, of the
Washington Canoe Club, was first,
closely followed by his club mate, H.
kreischer. These two men paired in
the cruising class single-blade tandem
event and took first place.
Knight Brothers Win.
Harry and Karl Knight, in the
senior tandem single-blade interna-
tional championships, carried off first
place, followed by men from the Ire
land Aquatic Association, of Toronto,
Canada.
The racing class senior four, single
blade, International championships
furnished the star event of the day.
The Washington Canoe Club boat,
with Harry Knight, Karl Knight,
Percy Walton and Harry Davis, took
the premier position and again beat
the Ireland Aquatic Association entry.
Percy Walton, the best single-blade
paddler developed by the club, was I'M
able to finish in this event. The heavy
wind knocked the water into nasty
chop, his boat being filled with water
and he was forced to withdraw,

AChB IuC iCooCl ..
Yesterdays game would have beer
won by the Griffmen, to 0, eliminat
ing alls the so-called luck of the pas
time. which a really good ball club
makes for itself. Hits by Smith anC
Judge and an error by Sheely nettet
the first tally. Miller's triple and Mi
lan's scratch single fetched the mex
In the fifth.
Just to prove that they are good
enough to win without assistance
Smith and Harris singled in the sew
euth and Judge poled a long sacrifice
fly. Miller also singled through Null
gan, but Harris was nabbed at the
plate on a close decision.
While all this was in progress, Mo
gridge was holding the Sox to six hits
three Of which were made in the last
two innings when he had been pro
vided with a competent lead. Mo
gridge pitched a clever game. He was
fast and he had control. Although he
struck out only one batter, he had
them popping up all afternoon, OF
knocking simple grounders to the in
fielders.
Turks In Offing.
DOME Bush, who is looking for an
opportunity of playing shortstop, still
turks In the offing. LaMotte handled
eight chances yesterday without fault
They included six assists. half OF
which were difficult.
Whether or not the Griffs can get
past Faber is a question. but II they
do not. they have accomplished enough
good work here by winning the first
two games.
Smith robbed Falk of an extra base
hit in the second round yesterday
when he went to the right center field
fence for a long drive. An adverse
wind alone prevented home run.
Queer play In fourth. Smith singled
through short and 1t looked as IL the
ball struck LaMotte, but the umpires
ruled otherwise. LaMotte tried 10
score and missed the plate. SO Schalk
recovered Johnson's high return and
tagged him out. This retired the side.
La Monte in Tangle.
Collins and La Motto tangled In
tho fourth. La Motto was on first
when Mogridge hit to tho Sox cap
tain. He reached for the ball. but 1t
dropped at his feet. Nevertheless
he poked the visiting shortstop in
Umpire Wilson was of considerable
assistance to the Griffs In the fifth
yesterday. Miller tripled with two
out and Milan propelled a grounder
towards johnson who had an excel
lent chance of making a play. but
Wilson jumped late to keep from
losing a leg and Milan -cwned q hit.
Miller scored. Wilson has a peculiar
habit of being in tho wrong place at
the wrong time.
Falk tackled Miller's fly in the fifth
yesterday in the extreme corner Of
left field and missed the ball. Miller
stopped at second base, but was
awarded a triple because the tar
paulin makes a ground rule.
Earl Smith would as soon play here
an summer. Yesterday he made
four hits and the day before three.
Smith once was discarded by the
Cubs and he delights in showing
Chicago people what a mistake was
made in letting him out.
