MOVEMENT OF FLYING-FISHES

Some highly interesting observations
on fying-flshes have been made by
DR.. e. FL. Hankln In the Arabian sea.
In still weather the length Of a glide
was about a meter, with considerable
lateral instability; in light wind
this was increased to from 200 to 400
meters. A resemblance between the

the fin action Of the fishes was marked

REGULARITY OF WOOD

brought out prominently in certain
kinds Of woods. mostly those of trOp-
ical origin, says the American For
estry Magazine. This IL variously
known as roe, ribbon grain, feather
grain, etc, and appears as narrow to

light and dark. This is due, not to
actual differences in color. but to the
way in which the light is reflected by

PENN CONFIDENT OF
OUTROWING CRIMSON
Quakers Believe They Are
More Advanced for Race
Next Saturday.

Special Dispatch to TIE NEW YoRK HERALp.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. April 22.-Having
made a clean sweep In the rowing
regatta with Yale on the Schuyllsill,
Penn now has its eyes turned to the
race with Harvard on the Charles River
next Saturday. Varsity and junior
varsity crews will be sent to Cambridge
to race over course of mile and five
sixteenths
An air of confidence is evident in the
Penn rowing quarters along Boat House
Row. From Coach Joe Wright right
down the line. all think that the Grim
son is in for beating. There is no
over-confidence on the part of the Penn
rowing mentor or his pupils. but they
believe that the red and blue squad is
a little further advanced.
This will be the second time that a
Wright coached Penn shell has rowed
on the Charles in the last seven years.
Two years ago the Penn varsity took
part in the triangular regatta with Har-
ward and Princeton on the Charles, and
Princeton won by a third Of boat
length over the Crimson, with Penn
last.
Following the victory over the three
Yale eights. Wright allowed his oars
men to take a vacation until last
Wednesday morning.
Five of the eight oarsmen in the Penn
varsity shell are Philadelphians-R. r,

Mattison. the stroke oar. from Roch-
ester. Jack Chase, the coxswain, Is
from Washington.
Wright was impressed with the work
OF Mattison. his new stroke oar In the
varsity race against Yale. 1t was the
first time that the Rochester lad, VINO
weighs 173 pounds. ever took part In
a varsity race. Last year he stroked
the freshman eight until the eve of tho
Poughkeepsie regatta when Syracuse
University entered the charge that he
had rowed the previous year at that
university. The intercollegiate Rowing
Association Board Of Stewards ruled
that Mattison was eligible to compete
in the race but PENIS rowing commit
tee deemed it best that he be kept out
of the boat and Medholdt. who is now
stroking the junior varsity. took his
place.
Mattison sent back such snappy
stroke pace for the red and blua
varsity last Saturday that soon after
the start Coach Rice of Columbia, DR..
Spaeth of Princeton and Wright Of
Penn, caught the stroke as high rs
1874 to the minute. II could hardly
believe that Mattson and the other
boys could keep up such clip" said
Wright, "but several men checked up
with me after the race and verified
It, That Is the kind of pace that counts
in short race and we expect to do
the same high stroking against Harvard

by Tigers.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HnRALD.
ANNAPOLIS, April 22.--Interest in row.
ing at the Naval Academy is becoming
keener with the approach Of the racing
season. Massachusetts Tech will bring
two crews here next Saturday for the
initial race. The varsity crews will OPP
pose each other. and it is probable that
the Navy's second and plebe crews will
both enter against the second crew Of
the visitors.
The real interest of the season, how
ever. attaches to the race at Cambridge
ward. the events being for varsity AMI
freshman eights. Princeton, 1t will be
remembered defeated the midshipmen in
an early season race on Lake Carnegie.
and the Navy oarsmen. most of whom
will have their last chance at the Tigers
this year, are desperately anxious to
win. 1t is also reported that Harvard
has a powerful crew and Is workir;s
quietly but with determination to regain
Its laurels this season.
From the Naval Academy standpoint
this is the big race of the season and ST
completely fills attention of those inter-
ested in rowing that there has been no
discussion up to this time as to a pos
sible entry in the Poughkeepsie regatta.
The fact that several of the crew mel,
who will graduate in June will probably
leave the Navy by reason of the limita-
ton placed upon the number of tic
class to be commissioned may scatter
the oarsmen and prevent the attendance
upon the Hudson classic.
Coach Glendon has taken pesonal
charge Of his varsity and second crews
this year. with Ensign Eddie Graves,
captain of the Olympic crew, directing
the work of the other crews, generally
three. formed from the varsity squad.
Richard Glendon, Jr., has sole charge
of the plebe squad, often putting four
eights on the water.
Crews Are Overweight.
The oarsmen have been brought along
gradually, and hours OF practice have
generally been short, so that all crews
are considerably above weight. The
varsity crew has not changed from the
beginning of the season, and is boated
this way: Bow. Gallagher; 2, Higgins
3, King A, Bolles: 5. Sanborn 8,
Johnston Z. Lee: stroke. Frawley cox
swain, Gwinn. The average weight of
the oarsmen at present Is about 179
pounds but it will probably drop five or
six bounds by midseason.
The calculations for next year may be
upset by some of the lusty plebes who
have been working unoer the younger
Glendon. His first crew is now boated

Sweden, in which he invites Weismuller
to visit Sweden and compete there dur
