 WIN COLLEGIATE
 VARSITY EVENT
Hv Ansoeiaf.d pvna.

Poughkeepsfe, N. Y., June 26.--The United States Naval academy eight pared crew still is intercollegiate rowing champion of America In the greatest aquatic battle ever wit messed on the historic regatta course on the Hudson, the middies this aft ernoon repeated their triumph of 1921 by winning the three-mile var sity race from the greatest collection of college shells that ever rowed in a similar race in the history of the sport.
 Forced to terrific speed by the re- peated challenges of Cornell, Wash ington and Syracuse. the sailors from the Severn finally emerged victors by one length over the University of Washington eight. champions of the r1cific coast. Scarcely a length be- hind the far coast shell came Syra- cuse and Cornell, so closely -Iocke ed that 1t was only after a long discuss sion among the judges at the finish that the former was awarded the third place over the Ithaca combi- nation. Outdistanced almost from the start Columbia and Pennsylva- mia fought out a duel of their own to avoid last place and in this the New York collegians were success full. leading the Quakers across the line long after the shells had ceased their forward headway. So bitter and grueliing was the struggle that the middy sweep swingers were forced to shatter all collegiate row ing records in their efforts to hold the lead. The navy shell shot across the line in the remarkable time of 3 minutes, 35 35 seconds. thus shat tering by more than one-half min ute the record made by the sailor shell when they won last year in IA minutes and seven seconds.
 The Seattle collegians after one of the most desperate spurts ever wit messed In the 26 Intercollegiate Row ing association regattas, finished in l3 minutes 36 1-5 seconds.
 The junior varsity race was won by Cornell, and the freshman event was captured by Syracuse.
 Exceptionally fast racing condi- tions prevailed for the final event fast outgoing tide, combined with a strong downstream wind, fflattened the water until there was hardly a ripple on the surface of the Hudson.

 Leonard jumped from his corner and forced the welterweight king around with rights to the head, but Britton's defensive work was at his best and he was little hurt. Britton sent a series of straight lefts to the face and forced Leonard into a neu- tral corner. Leonard missed several right swings and took a hard punch to the jaw.
 Round Ten
 Leonard was shaken with over hand rights to his jaw. Leonard re- turned hard lefts to jaw. and Brit ton seemed willing to mix. returning as good as was sent. Leonard was always on the defensive in this round.
 Round Eleven

 RenI Test For White
 Joe White, the Tuscaloosa pug, who has been training for some three years now In an effort to get on in the boxing game. and who takes regular punching from Marty Burke of New Or leans. seems to have no trouble in keeping busy in a fistic way. Joe is back from a trip in the east where his manager kept him pretty busy.
 For couple of years now Joe has been trying to get in Allan ta to show his wares before the boxing public of the Georgia metropolis. Tonight he is to get his chance. Billy -Lotz. who managed Eddie Hanlon when that worthy was in his prime, and who started Freddie Boorde on a fistic career. has a young fellow he has pulled from the mountains of North Georgia who he will send against the Tusca- loosa giant. Joe is getting in his class now and Alabama fistic fans are waiting to see the out come of tonight's battle.
 So far White has failed to show a wallop that will make a champion. He has one good thing in his favor, however. No one has ever accused Joe of be- ing yellow. He will stand up and take punishment for in- numerable rounds, and never ut ter a whimper. He Is hard to knock off his feet and a bear for punishment. If he can develop a knockout wallop he should yet be heard from in the realm of fistiana.
 George Kircher has interned his independents for time. Ac- cording to George some of these Alabama towns possess ball clubs that would do credit to some teams in the Southern league.

ond for the Chattanooga and Little Rock clubs a few years ago, and who then developed into a major league pastimer, has been sold by St. Louis to the Chattanooga club. The question uppermost in the minds of the fans Is whether Eddie Mcdonald will continue to hang on an an infielder, now that second saclter Gleason is back in the ranks. While Mcdonald hasn't made the best showing in the world as pilot of the 'Noogans this summer, he has been playing ball around the keystone in old-time form and has been hitting the ball on the nose all summer.
 Carpenter has signed for an- other bout with Joe Beckett. The latter likes to meet Georges be- cause of the short hours. Joe is union man, and never has to work over one round when he gets in tilt with the French man.
 Bad Year for Steamboat
 Umps Harry Johnson, who is recognized the league over as one. of the best arbiters in the circuit, cant seem to shake the Jinx that has been camping on his trail all summer. Steamboat first ran afoul of luck in Birmingham when he had an altercation with Stuffy Stewart. The other day in New Orleans, he raised the ire of Pitcher Craft of the Pelican club and Steamboat had to take his mask and use it as a mallet in gelf protections
 Steamboat is used to any kind of rough treatment. however, for he worked in the Sally league last year. and down in that hectic loop they'll lynch an umpire and boil him in oil for two bits.
 Local fans, who know and love Gil Meyers, are hoping against hope that his baseball career has not been ended. by virtue of col lision he had with Pitcher War moth of the Little Rock club recently. Warmy's spikes cut a tendon in Gil's foot. He has many friends in Birmingham. having coached Central High here for two years. He's one of the best fellows in the world and it is sincerely hoped that he is not lost to baseball.
