Cornell Willing to Hold
Big Race on Seneca Lake
Course There Is Sheltered From West and Northwes
Winds and Rliroai Runs Along It's Shores
Old Oarsmen Favor Four Mile Course.

Special Dispatch to THE New YonK HERALD
Cornell University athletic association
and of the university's rowing interests
are sitting tight" in the situation cre-
ated by informal proposals to remove
the intercollegiate Rowing Associations
regatta from Poughkeepsie to Seneca
Lake. at Geneva. and to go back to the
four mile race for varsity crews. These
I-proposals were characterized by one
Cornell Official as lobby talk" up to the
present. but it is recognized here that
both questions will come UP for serious
consideration at the next meeting of the
board Of stewards of the association
Charles r.. fireman, chairman OF the
Cornell 70 Sirg committee and Cornell's
representative on the board of stewards
Graduate Manager Romeyn Berry and
Coach John Hoyle are all keenly inter
ested In the discussion, but interviews
with all three disclose that for the pres
ent there will be no expression Of opin-
ion from those in authority in Cornell
athletics.
Mr.. Berry found differences of opin-
ion on both questions in the rowing
camps at Poughkeepsic. In other words
he found no alignment by colleges, no
division OF opinion by colleges, but diff
ferent opinions inside OF each college
group. For the present It is indicated
that Cornell will ADOPT the policy of the
listener. hearing the arguments on both
sides of each question and giving them
careful consideration before reaching a
conclusion. That Mr.. fireman intimated
was Cornell's position at present. Natu-
rally the wishes OF Penn and Columbia
particularly will have weight with the
Ithacans. because these two. with Cor
nell. founded the Intercollegiate Rowing
Association.
Favor Four Mile Course.
Many old Cornell oarsmen. members Of
the Alumni Varsity Crew Association
are In favor OF returning to the four
mile race. On the other hand. the opin.
ion of the late Charles e. Courtney, who
favored the three mile race as against
the longer distance. has great weight n
Cornell rowing circles. and the Ithacans
would be slow TO 20 back on Courtney's
position. He favored the shorter course
not because the four mile race was dan
gerous to oarsmen Che held that proper
training would flt crew just as wei
for a four mile as three mile race) bu
because he believed developing a crew
for three mile race did not take a.
much time or require as much hard worl
for the crews. IL Is doubtful IL Mr.
Courtney's theory has been vindicated 81
far. The varsity crew In the last tive
years has probably been given just .abou

Miss James is the greatest woman

it will serve to gauge the comparative
ability of American and English girl

One Thousand to Compete
for Trap Shooting Title
Sixteen Traps Installed at
Atlantic City.

Sixteen automatic target traps, in
stalled on the Absecon Boulevard in an
absolutely straight line, will greet the
trapshooters of, North America who at
tend the grand American clay target
championships to be held in Atlantic
City. N. j.. September IL to 16. And
this great battery of traps. approxi-
mately one-half mile from No. to No.
16, win mark a new epoch In the sport
of trap shooting. ~
Twenty-Five years ago, when the first
Grand American Handicap was staged
at Interstate Park. N. r., there were
seventy-four entries, and two traps
were sufficient to take care of the COM
petition. But the annual classic of the
sport has grown to the point where this
year there Is practically certain to be
more than one thousand entries In the
feature events, and 1t Is essential to
have eight times the number OF traps
which were used at the first Grand
American, or sixteen.
This is a realization of dream which
the pioneers of the sport permitted them
selves at the first tournament. but
which down deep-in their hearts they
regarded solely as dream.
The first national clay target tourna-
ment was rightfully named the Grand
American Handicap. At that time the
distance handicap. In which the con-
testants shot from yard marks In ac-
cordance with their known ability, was
the feature event in fact, the only
event. But as the tournament became
more popular and the entries increased
other events were added. and In recent
years there have been championship
contests In the several classes Of shoot
ing. This year, for example. the cham
pionship of North America at single
targets Is expected to be on par with
the Grand American Handicap in the
matter OF interest and I'm the number or
entries, because any man or boy
woman or girl who Is rated as an anna
teur Is eligible 70 enter this event and
may win the title.
Another event which will rival the
Grand American Handicap will be the
class championships. In this race the
contestants will be divided into five
classes in accordance with their average
and recognized skill. and the winner In
each Of these classes will be known as
the champion Of his class on the North
American continent.
Other important championship events
which will be open to all amateur trap
shooters will be the double target and
Is yard championships.

Soldiers Beat Patagonians Who

events.
On another field In the semi-final OF
the Hampstead cups the Meadow Brook
Rambiers defeated the Flamingoes by 10
goals to c.
The Army players gave very fine
exhibition Of polo and caused the losers
TO be on the defensive the greater part
of the game. Only Milburn's good hit
ting at back prevented a big score for
the soldiers. Though on many occa~
sions they missed opportunities to ma
terialize through faulty goal shooting,
they demonstrated their ability to play
first class polo at top speed. There
was not a weak link on the team. but
undoubtedly Major Erwin. with his bril-
liant hitting and aggressive riding. was
more than any one else responsible for
the Army's wonderful showing. At half
time the score was goals to In favor
of the military team. and only Milburn' 8
great defense. assisted by Major Patten,
an Army player. prevented matters
from being worse.
: In the second half Raby made some
fine runs for the losers, and goal re-
suited in a free hit taken by Milburn as
a penalty against Erwin for crossing
him. The last chukker saw the Pata-
gonians pressing, with Raby and Mil
burn unlucky not to score. Erwin, how
ever, relieved the situation. carrying
the ball the length of the field, Brown
scoring for Army. Raby hit a clever
goal Just before the final bell.
Meadow Brook Ramblers Win.
On the other field the Meadow Brook
Ramblers had no difficulty in defeating
the F1aningos. Elliot Bacon and Penn
Smith, with such q substantial back
as Bobbie Strawbridge. were too strong
for their opponents. Cooley, time and
time again, saved the situation. but with
little support his efforts gained only
temporary relief. Ambrose Clark at
back had his opponents near his own
