lifted he would give Carpenter such
a fight and wouldn't exact anything

Their Costumes Stir Up Much

LONDON, April Before. long
England will have its varsity boat
race for. women to rival the annual
Oxford Cambridge race.
Women's rowing clubs are spring

side villages. &
There is no finer exercise for
the average healthy girl, provided.
of course, that she doesn't overdo
it," said Miss Radley, secretary of
the Cecil Ladies' Rowing Club.
"Bracing as it is, one need not be
surprised to find that the doctors
recommend rowing in the case Of
the, girl who needs fairly vigorous
exercise, though IT is only the really
strong girl who should go in for
racing.
I'VE have several girls training
for the musical profession who find
that rowing is of great advantage
to them, because 1t teaches them
how to breathe properly. Proper
breathing il as essential in rowing
as in singing"
Despite Miss Radley's praise for
rowing as womanly exercise, there
liz severe criticism of the women
who take up this form Of sport
from other quarters. Many doctors
claim it is too strenuous for women.
The rowing costume which has
been adopted has created a mild
storm, too. though not as violent a
storm as the attempt to introduce
knickerbockers, such as worn in
America, into the female golf cos
tune.
The rowing costume of the Cecil
Club is officially described as fol-
lows: "a pale blue sweater, navy
blue shorts drumming trunks), navy
blue and cream blazer with blue
edging."

He expected to start in the two.
mile handicap event of the Em-

Electric Light and Power Company
games as his first step in his cam
paign for a place on the 1924 Olym-
pic team, but changed his mind and
entered the S,000-meter event.
Kivvie deserves great deal of
credit for making the change. It
took nerve to do 1t. The field was
by far superior to that I'm the two

Walter Higgins of Columbia was
in it and so were Andy Craw and
Arthur Cassot of the Glencoe Ath-
letic Club.
The whole race lay between Hig-
gins and Craw nearly all the way.
Kiviat didn't figure at all II was
apparent from the start that his
battle would be concentrated on third
place, and it was.
But when the leaders entered
the final quarter the former Irish
American star, whose name once
ranked with the foremost runners
OF the age, began to fade and
give way to CassOt.
It wasn't a question of ability.
1t was one of youth and stamina
But KfVvie is game. His many
defeats this season will by no means
keep him from trying. He may
have lost his fleetness, but his
heart is as brave as it was on the
day when he battled Jackson, Tabor
