Eli VARSITY EIGHT
WINS BY 3 LENGTHS
FROM CRIMSON CREW

NEW LONDON, Conn, June "a
Rowing a. steady sustained stroke OF
50 to the minute for the full four
miles, the Yale varsity crew defeated
Harvard's eight by almost three
lengths in the feature race of the
fifty fifth regatta Of the rival univer-
sites here this afternoon. The story
of the race is a story OF a three-toot
lead snatched in the first few beats or
the contest, gradually stretched into
a three length lead at the finish OIL
the upstream row.
The contest was without particular
thrill other than the perfect form
and Craftsmanship shown by the New
Haven crew. In this respect Harvard
was not so far behind, but the flnal
application of power so noticeable IN
the Eli blade work was missing TO
greater extent in the beat or the
Crimson.
The superiority of the Yale crew
is we'll illustrated by the official time
for the race, which was won IN II
minutes and SO seconds, to Harvard $
% minutes and seconds. The VIM
ners time today fell minute and 5l
seconds behind the course record
made by Harvard in 1916.
The triumph of Yale varsity elsht
coming after the double defeat in the
forenoon races when the Eli freshmen
were swamped in the first contest
and the juniors were completely out
classed in the contest for second var
sity shells, proved a stimulating VIC
tory to Eli rowing spectators tonlsnt.
For the second consecutive time IN
two years Yale varsity crew had
turned back the Harvard favorites IN
the big race of the annual inter-
varsity regatta between these two
New England universities.

Ball players make a club, It's true |,
but it is just as much a fact that
clubs make a ball player.
AS a particular instance take
young Whitley Witt, who Just came
to the Yanks from Connie Mack S
Athletics.
Witt. now the regular right fielder
of the New York Americans is prob
ably the greatest example, of the
presence of the psychological effect
in the baseball world. Before coming
to the Rupert Huston forces the
fair haired one was considered an
ordinary type of performer, destined
to go along from day to day, recelv-
ing only passing notice from the
press and public, later to drop into
the minors and finally into oblivion.
But change for the better hap
pened quite suddenly and unexpect-
edly. Dissatisfied with his berth on

WHEN JACK
MEETS BEN
LEONARD HAS NOTHING TO
LOSE - BRiTTON EVERY
THING

At the New York Velodrome, on
June 70, Jack Britton, veteran of
boxers land champion of welter-
weights, will be called upon to make
the fight of his life.
He mixes it with Benny Leonard,
chief cook of the liehtweights. in a
15-round decision bout for the well
ter title.
Twice before they have met, once
in New York and again in Philadel-
phia. There was no argument about
the first melee, it was Bennah's, but
the Quakertown scramble was dis
puted loudly by Jack.
Leonard Can't Lose
Leonard has everything to gain
and nothing to lose. He can't lose
his championship and Britton can.
Brit is the willing fighter.
Leonard is a terrific hitter. Brit
ton faces one of the worst fighters in
the ring with a record for stringing
the kayos.
Jack is one of the hardest men to
Law a blow on that ever rosined a
foot. He is always stepping from a
blow just at the junction. He isn't
a heavy hitter. but the continuous
wag of the head and his ring smart
ness have kept the welters from
swinging him to the mat
Weight Even
The chances are that Brit will not
outweigh the light king to any de-
gree. He will have to worry about
the lat mark. Leonard's overweight
has always been matter of discus
sion.
No lightweight has ever worn the
welter crown and il Bennah does
connect he will be one of the most
popular boxers in the game.
He could let the 1873 title slide
gracefully and make the welter
poundage much easier.

"A SENSATION WITH NEW YORK

the Philadelphia Athletics, Witt
made known his desire to be traded
to some other club in the American
League, and the tall tactician was
forced to sell him. The Yanks bid
the highest and got him.
Became a Sensation
An ordinary ball player with an
ordinary club, Witt became sensa-
ton with the Yanks over night. His
hitting, fielding, and base running
featured a great many games IN
which the Hugmen took part at
time when the Rupert Huston
forces were considered featureless
because of the absence Of Ruth ana
Meusel Miraculous catches of balls
that looked like sure hits, perfect

United States on the steamer Aquta mia next Saturday. They are to put the case for the treaty before Irish sympathisers in the United States. Beaslai left last night for England and will be joined at Southampton by James O'Mara, former Sim Fein agent in the United States and by Sean Maccacilte, member of the Dublin corporation.
 The mission has been undertaken at the request Of the provisional gov ernment. Its members expect to stay about six weeks in the United States and Will speak in it's principal cities in behalf of the Irish free state.
 Beaslai was director of army pub licity during the Irish rebellion and still holds rank as commandant gen. eral.
 He recently has been publicity agent at the armory headquarters at Beggars Bush O'Mara was direc- tor of elections in the Sim Fein cam paign in 1918 and visited the United States with De Valera.
 Freeman's Journal, which is the authority for the statement that De  Valera supporters are reported to be sending a rival mission which also may possibly sail on the Aquitana says that J. J. O'Kelly, former min ister of education in the Dali cabinet and editor of the Catholic Bulletin and Austen Stack, former minister for home affairs in the Dali Eireann have applied for passports to the United States and intend to sail at the first possible moment, most likely on the Aquitania. r
 The London Mirror is responsible for the report that Ramon De Valera, himself, may soon visit the United States to arouse sympathy for his cause. ...-.

CHOCTAW INDIANS
 ALWAYS RESTLESS
Mississippi Clans Said to Be Con-
 tinually Quarreling

Muskogee, Okla, March 1M-Four- teen hundred members of the Choc- Jaw Indian tribe residing in the state of Mississippi are in deplorable condition. in the opinion of Peter J, Hudson of Tuskahoma, member of the Oklahoma Choctaw tribe, who has returned from months mission among the Mississippi Indians. MT. Hudson and the late Monsigneur w. H. Ketcham of Oklahoma City were delegated by Indian Commissioner Burke to make an investigation of tho condition of the tribe in that state. Monsgneur Ketcham died sud- denly at Philadelphia, Miss, while engaged in the work.
 Always Quarrcling.
 The 1,4oo Mississippi Choctaws are divided into ten clans and they are constantly quarreling, according to Mr. Hudson. Originally their an- cestors were members of the Choctaw tribe that migrated to Indian Terri tory ir the early 30's. They have made no progressive steps in the past 100 years, MT. Hudson says, and he declares their greatest need is edu- cation. Their sole occupation is farming and as such they are tenant farmers of whites.
 Need Education.
 "I am firmly convinced that by ed ucation alone can the customs and barriers of a hundred years standing be broken" says Mir. Hudson. Ito inn press the Choctaws with the respop- abilities of citizenship. Today they exercise no right of franchise and are not on terms of social equalhy with the white citizens of Mississippi
 Tt will require many years te bring about the education of the young ChoctaWs of Mississippi"
