Penn Crews Win tn EUents With Yale
 ROwerS

Philadelphia, April 15.-The1 UnI- versity of Pennsylvania oarsmen to- day made clean sweep of all events I.over the Henley course on the Schuylkin river in the annual regat- ta with Yale. The Pennsylvania crews. employing the American sys- tenn, proved superior in power and skill over Yale blademen who used the English system.
 The three races were held over the Henley one' miles and $50 yard course in the Schuykill river. The time for the varsity crew was: Pennsylvania 6.53. Yale 7:02. The time for the 15O pound crew was: Pennsylvania 6.53; Yale 7.O2. The time for the 150 pound crew was: Pennsylvania TOP 2-5; Yale 7;0s 2-5. In the varsity and 150 pound class races the Pennsyl- vanias jumped ahead at the start and maintained their lead to the finish. but in the Junior varsity the Yale crew got away first. However, their pace was not fast enough to keep the advantage for after few yards, Pennsylvania shell forged ahead and remained there.
 The varsity race found the rivals ready for the supreme test with Stroke Mattison. the 173 pounder occupying the place of honor for Pennsylvania and opposed by John Freeman. 147 pound exponent, who stroked the Blue to victory over liar yard last June. The crews got away together, but Pennsylvania hit up 3. forty four while Yale got away to a forty clip. The heavier Pennsyl-' vanias shot their shell to the front with each stroke and in 100 yards open water showed between the sheels. At the half mile point Penn sylvania had an advantage of 113 lengths. improving 1t to ? lengths at the mile. finishing with length of open water between shells. Both crews finished In good condition.
 The preliminary race between Graduate eights brought Yale it's only consolation, as the Pennsylvania crew was defeated on a half mile course

Around In y5.

Ii Is interesting to calculate what could be done by second and third rate players toward lowering their scores without the necessity of act ually improving their skill.
 If. for purpose of this discussion, We classify a Grade A player as one who can play an average course in 75, Grade B the same course in 50, Grade c the same course in 100.
 B and c players. on the average, could improve their games two or three strokes round by the simple process of the invariable selection of the proper club.
 A surprisingly large percentage of B and c players develop a fondness for a particular club-it's human weakness I adniit-and are inclined to play that club because of this con fidence in a situation clearly calling for a different club. On the other hand a Grade A player would follow the proved principles of golf in the situation. For example, B or has A fondness for a midiron, The shot, as B or c recognize, probably calls for a driving iron but because of the midiron fondness B or says to him. self: 1T will play my midiron with q little more power" The result of this IS apt to pc WHdI Oue tOuiO duttSt- pate and the stroke is lost.
 BInckspin With Mashle.
 Or in another situation B or c may have an aversion to stopum and a fondness for mashie. B or c is apt then to say: Well. 1 will give this shot the blackspin with my mashie." He proceeds to do so and is either unable to give the blackspin which stopum would have supplied, or gets a sliced blackspin, that is, a hop to the right which is the usual result of shot with blaclSspin ap- piled by mashie. In the end this probably costs him an extra putt. The Grade A player would have used the stopum and would usually get the result looked for.
 Or take still another case Tie or player will attempt to force his club in try for extra distance- unreasonable distance - something he has no reason to hope will be successful. He whales away and gets either a big slice or hook into the rough or a woods and pays for his temerity with extra strokes. A Grade A player is seldom caught in this error.
 These examples could be multi piled almost indefinitely but those cited are Su1flclent to prove the point. which is. that player, B or c, could lower his score by the simple process of the right club for the job.
 Swinging Body.
 Another fault which. if corrected. would help or c toward so scores is the elimination of the very com mon practice of swinging the body instead of the club.
 With the spread of golfing knowl- edge we do not see many pain grip pers these days, but l think that a pain gripper could materially i'm prove his game by adopting one of the orthodox grips. Grade B or C or D players should always remem- Der to use the proper club for the proper work. The driver is for the greatest distance; the brassie is next. and the irons go down the gradually diminishing scale. as all golfers un- derstand. The fact that an occasiona. player might manage to make a short distance club do long distance work is very deceptive thing and wholly inadvisable.

 In Sheriff street, in the lower East Side, l walked with newspaper friend through a congestion of cars and merchandise and men and wom- en-and children. My friend frown- ing upon that swarm of children of alien stock, stopped me and ask cd What will America be like in 20 years. with that coming on?"
 I looked at the children, even at those, the larger boys. who were run ming away from outraged vendors and pursuing police; but felt no appre- hension. I did not reply to the news paper man. because 1 knew we should not agree. To me 1t was good to see them, those scores of children, who were remarkable because they were almost deliriously happy. There was street piano near by. with a circle of men and women drawn up about it. Inside the circle children were dancing--little girls who danced. without knowing how they danced, the rhythmic steps of Spanish and Moorish and Greek dancer
