ROWING TEAMS IN
 WORKOUTS FOR MEETS
University Coaches Speed Up Training For Dual Clashes To Be Held In Spring.

New York, Feb. 6. - With the opening of what promises to be the greatest season in the history of in- tercoHegiate rowing only two months away, university coaches through put the country are today working full speed developing crews for the col lege regattas and dual meets scheduled during April, May and June Indoor practise is in full swing in the colleges in the East-Cornell, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Syracuse Columbia, Navy and PennsylVanla and similar feverish activity is under way in Western universities, such as California, Washington, Michigan and Wisconsin.
 The season will be formally open ed in the West on April 8, when the Pacific Coast intercollegiate regatta will be held at Oakland. Cal. In the East the lid will be taken off the rowing season with a meet between Pennsylvania and Yale at Philadel- phia on April 15. Meets between colleges vii occur in rapid success sion, eliminating on June 26 in the blue-ribbon event, the intercollegiate regatta at Poughkeepsie. California Looks Good.
 Don GafoEnia 9E fbe is cbsas era honors on the coast. In the East competition will be more general with either Princeton or Navy being favored to win titular honors.
 Although an international rowing match appears doubtful at this early date, it is just barely possible that an English crew from either Oxford or Cambridge will come to this coun- try either late in May or early in June to engage with the best of American blades. The chances of an American team going to England are not favorable.

AND .O'HEARN OUT
 FOR SEASON

New Haven, Jan. 6.-Yale has lost it's two best athletes. Tom Camppell and Charley O'Hearn, for the entire indoor season
 The injury which Campbell sunereo in the Afillrose games last Wednesday has been found so serious that Coa.cn John Mack of the track team said last night that he would start Camp bell in no more meets until spring:
 If Campbell is able to run the dual games against Harvard and Princeton Yale will be thoroughly satisfied ' ale was able 10 defeat Harvard in the an nuaI relay race at the Boston Athletic Club games Saturday night without him.
 O,Hearn Out Until Fall
 O'Hearn is still at his home in Bos- ton where he went after breaking down at the opening of the hockey season with a ruptured muscle. He may join the Yale baseball squad in April but it is more likely that he will not enter athletics until the football season next fall. O'Hearn is expected to return to college today

Players Tempered
 With Says Baker

New York, Jan. 6.-Even a. touch of low comedy is welcomed when it serves to enEven a dull winter in base ball. Now comes William F. Baker owner, Of the Philadelphia Nationals crying for vengeance on curtain Ma t1onal League club owners he caught fampering with his players. MT. Ba- ker would have these moral pirates chastised and he has already warmed up a slapstick to swing it at them next week when the annual schedules me e2ting of the league takes place here.
 MT. Baker states an obvious truth when he solemnly declares he has never tempered with a player not em- p12Ved by him. There will be none to dispute this. The 1owly standing of the Phillies. in fact proves it. The onIy way to tempt a ball player to join the Phillies is to hit him on the head with a club offer him the privileges of the Philadelphia mint. MT. Baker has never done either.
 The bylaws of ths National League provide for a fine of $1,000 for any owner or manager who tampers with player on aonther club. Branch Hickey has been named as one of the culprits in the corruption of the Phil lies. The Brooklyn club is also under suspicion.
