Sculler-Yale Graduates

By DANIEL.

With scullers and crews from Phila-
delphia and Baltimore vieing with those
of the Metropolitan section and great
interest added by the appearance Of a
Yale graduates eight the annual re-
gatta Of the New York Rowing Ayso-
citation on the Harlem this afternoon
promises to hit the high mark set last
Memorial Day. The schedule calls for
a long series of races starting at / 80
p. NJ. and finishing at 6 in the evening.
There was great disappointment along
Scullers's Row last evening when the
Lone Stars announced the withdrawal
Of Harry Heller from the senior singles.
Heller has not had much time for prac-
tice and feels that he could not do him
self Justice to-day. The race, there
fore, for the first time in the history
OF the Harlem regatta, will have no
sculler representing New York.
Garrett Gilmore of the Bachelors of
Philadelphia will have it out with Oily
phant of the Undines of the Quaker
City for the sculling title. 1t had been
expected that Tom Rooney. now Of the
Undines would come up for the race.
tut Rooney beat Gilmore last Saturday
and will be called on to meet him and
Eddie Durnan again on Thursday in a
preliminary heat for the Gold Chal-
lenge Cup, to be decided on the ISchuyl-
kill on Saturday.
The Yale graduates will meet the
New York A. c. and the New Rochelle
r. c. in the intermediate eights. There
will be no senior eights, and it looks
as if the regatta win be without rep
resentation from Columbia, which sent

Detector VIII Also Record the
Order in Which Runners
Reach the Wire.

Special Dispatch TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.
PRINCETON, N. J., May ga new
timing device for track events which
Will record not only the times of run
ners to the Tooth of second but also
the order in which they finish, has been
invented by Prof Augustus Trowbridge
of the department of physics of Prince
ton University. Recent trials made with
members of the Tiger track team in
Palmer Stadium have proved the tnven-
tion practical and accurate.
The apparatus is on the same principle
as battery detector which Prof. Trow-
bridge perfected as Lieutenant-C Colonel
in the United States Army during his
overseas service IN the world war. A
microphone arrangement at the start
sets off the timer with the report of a
pistol.
As the runner breaks the wire
stretched across the finish of his par
ticular lane, the movement is recorded
on q film by means of electrical and
reflecting devices. This film is run on
the order of motion picture machine
and can be developed and the results
read within five minutes after the con-
clusion of race.
Prof. Trowbridge Is the father of the
George Trowbridge who in 1920 was one
of the famous Erdman-Trowbridge
Massey hurdling trio which made a
clean sweep in the hurdles for Prince

There is great interest in local row.
ing circles in the experiment which Is
being tried at Yale. Last year, only
a week before the regatta with Har-
ward. Yale discarded Guy Nickalls in
favor of Jim Corderry. That meant a
change in coaching but no change In
style or stroke. Now Yale has changed
coaches and stroke as well. George
Corderry is counted ON to teach the
Ellis a variation of the American stroke.
Il may not be too late to develop crew
capable of beating the Harvard var
sity. It's a desperate move, but Yale
can lose nothing and gain great deal.
At the annual meeting of the Middle
States Rowing Association at Philadel-
phia last Saturday the regatta was
awarded to Baltimore and will be held
on the Patapsco River under the aus
pices Of the Arundel Boat Club on
Labor Day, September 4. The officers
were reelected as follows: President,
Latrobe Cogswell, Arundels: vice-pres-
ident John j. Mulcahy, New York A.
c.; seecretary-treasurer, c. Fred Null
Ter, Palisade Boat Club, Yonkers re-
cording secretary, Harry Lauer, Metro
politans.
That fiasco at Ithaca last Saturday
is to be regretted greatly. Those who
paid their money for seats on the OBJ
servation train got nothing but n long,
fruitless wait. The rowing world lost
a fine chance to get another line on Har-
ward through the race with Cornell
Harvard probably lost nothing.
