COLLEGIANS BEST

College players are being grabbed
up by major league scouts almost
daily.
The New York Yankees have just
signed half a dozen stars from col
lege mines.
The fact that so many youngsters.
schooled by college coaches, make
good in a single jump to big league
clubs means we are 10 have a new
class of players.
They are quick thinkers, easily
taught and adaptive.

TY is RIGHT.

Even Ty Cobb, the slugger, Is
against the freak ball that is being
whaled daily for extra bases around
the big league parks.
I'm in favor of eliminating the
lively bali, the spit ball and all freak
things in baseball" says Ty.
THE public likes hitting, but too
much Of anything is too much"
And a lot Of other people are
thinking the same things as Ty.

BY Associated Press:
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June %
Special invited crews won chief
honors in the annual intercollegiate

respectively IN the three mile var
sity event, the feature of the pro-
gram Cornell won third place in
the big event and both prelimina-
ries.
The middies' vistory IN the three
mile ace was an impressive triumph
much IN keeping with their rowing
record for the past three years.
With the majority of the oarsmen
who won Olympic honors al Brus-
sells last summer, among them. the
sweep swingers from Annapolis
jumped TO the front at the very
start of the long race down the Hud-
son and were never headed. finishing
the three miles in the record time
of IA minutes. Z seconds. The for
mer recsSd was made in 1898 by the
Pennsylvania eight in 10 minutes,
81 IL seconds on still water, at
Saratoga Lake.
California Finishes Strong
The spectacular feature of the re-
gatta was furnished by CALIFORNIA;
crew of giant oarsmen when, after
battling for nearly two miles with
the Fights of Pennsylvania, Columbia
and Syracuse. they staged a terrific
squirt and in the final hundred yards
overhauled Cornell and hurled the
brow of their shell into second place
by a scant three feet. The westerns
time was II minutes, % seconds,
which placed them three and a half
lengths behind the middies.
Cornell was third and in the wake
of the Quakers came Columbia and
Syracuse. barely a length apart
With the exception of the 1907
regatta, when seven crews started,
the race Of today was the most spec
tacular in the long history Of the
intercollegiate boat races on the
Hudson. It was the first revival on
the Poughkeepsie course since 1910.

RED DESERT OIL
STRIKE REPORTED

A cowboy rode in from the Red
| Desert late last evening and an
nounced that he had stopped at the
Anna Belle camp in the Pickett Lake
section Tuesday evening and the
drilling crew we're so engrossed with
an oil strike they had just made
'hangin' round" so he beat it. The
cowboy said his name was Jim Haney
Jr., whose father was one of the
first Texas cowmen to settle yer in
the Powder river country nea the
mouth of Tongue river. He stated
that he had been used to liquor all
his life until lately. but If the oil
business gave a kick to everyone like
it did those fellows at the Anna Belle
he was going to quite the range and
break into the oil game.
Ralph Johnson. who has been in
charge of the Red Desert Oil & EX-
ploration Syndicate for the past year
states that he heard such a rumor
yesterday and was told at Wamsutter
that a telegram telling of the strike
had been sent to the Casper owners
by one Of the Anna Belle employees.
No one seems to know the extent OF
the strike.
The Anna Belle is located on =
26-97 and is down only about 500
feet with 12k inch casing. The
property Is being worked by Casper
parties headed by Mr.. w. E. Patton
and Is reported to be we'll financed
for continuous operations. The Re-
publican offers this as a only.
but hopes 1t proved to be true.

~AEIsOI'LANE DAMAGED

Mail plane No. 1871. pilOted by
Aviator Collision vas wrecked yeSter-
day noon whcn the engine died just
as the plane was taking off and be
fore it had gone a third of a mile.
The plane struck the hill west of
the field with the result that the
propeller was broken. the engine
thrown from the plane and the en-
tire front smashed. The pilot was
not injured at all although the plane
rolled down hill for approximately
so yards.
Mechanics at the aviation field are
engaged in gathering up the parts
OF the wreck and in attempting to
put the plane back in running order.
The fact that Aviator Collision es-
capped without an injury is remark
able considering the manner in which
the plane was wrecked. Had the
plane gone a short distance further
before the engine stopped the results
would undoubtedly have been fatal
to the pilot.
