MANY u. S. HORSES
In SHOW AT LONDON

LONDON, June 2O.-The chances of
the American team carrying off a few
blue ribbons in the interna tional
horse show, which opens today in the
Olympia have been improved by the
excellent showing or Tle horses dur
ing the preliminary practices yester-
day.
The fourteen horses which the nine
Army officers comprising the Ameri-
can team brought with them to Eng
land have become acClimated to the
variable English weather and their
performances have been more than
satisfactory. This is the first time
American officers have been entered
in this premier morse show. and their
appearance is attracting much atten-
ton, particularly in the jumping
events.
They are entered for all these: The
light and middle weight hunter class
and the light anG heavy officers
chargers class. All have entered for
the kings cup, which is the chief
event of the show, but Capt Barry
has not decided upon the entries for
the Prince of Wales. the Canadian
and Srurry cups, these selections to
depend upon the showing made dur
ing the first performances. The
Americans will have four horses IN
the Westbourne cup competition for
officers chargers.

The Thames racing lane was
smooth as a mill pond and there was

The two crews rowed on almost

then Yale gained slight edge, which
she continued to increase. Yale

Yales junior varsity eight defeated
the Harvard junior varsity crew in
their two-mile race upstream by a

Yale grit won the race after Har-

nearly the halfway flag, when Yale
successfully challenged
While Yale is a heavy favorite for
the varsity race, which is due to be
rowed at 4 pm, interest has been in
creased by the fact that Harvard has
made great strides in it's training and
that the Ellis successful career has
not included any distance trials.
Yale won the first honors Of the

N lSS WILLS LAUDED
BY HER CONQUER0R

LONDON. June 20-"There is good
prospects of Miss Wills reaching the
final in the international tourna-
ment, If. combined with luck in the
draw, she conquers the strangeness
of the English atmosphere and re-
verts to her old triumphant style"
This is the opinion of the American
champion voiced to the Daily Ex-
press by Miss Kathleen McKane,
who defeated her at Wimbledon yes
terday, e., 60.
Recalling how Miss Wills defeated
her in 1928 at Forest Hills, the Brit
ish star says she then felt the same
uneasiness which she assumes the
American champion felt at Wimble-
don, and with the same effect on her
game. She adds that the technique
excellent; her fine shots could not
have been bettered, but somehow
they did not achieve their usual re-
suits.
In all the British took five out of
six matches to gain possession of
the Wightman trophy, emblematic of
the world team championship for
women.
The Americans only victory came
IN the doubles yesterday when Miss
Wills and Mrs. c. w. Wightman
Kane and Miss Evelyn Colyer. 2-6,
6-2, 6-4
Mrs. Mella Mallory, like Miss Wills,
suffered her second defeat in the
matches yesterday when she lost to
Mrs. b. c. Covell, %, 81, 6--2.

AS to the fate of our woman tennis
players in England, the only cheerful
thing United States tennis enthusi-
asts can do is to turn back a page
and contemplate the fate of the Eng
lish women in this country last year.
1t looks as if this interna tionaI ten
mis- business, so far at least as women
are concerned, cannot work out equi-
tably without a month or so of accli-
nation.
How much, II anything, did Gil Do
bic, the Cornell foot ball coach, have
to do with the development of Red
Grange. the star Illinois back last
summer.
This question is rendered pertinent
by the fact that Robe has again
Joined Bob Zuppke at Urbana as
backfield professor in the summer
school for coaches. Gossip last fall
was that Dobie, producer of Pfann
and Kaw and other backfield stars,
gave a lot of attention to Grange last
summer. He may not have done so;
the writer, understand, is merely re-
peating gossip.
At all events it is known that
Zuppke has another backfeld pros
pect of whom he thinks as highly as
he did of Grange at this time last
year. Also there are one or two other
prospects.

DISTRICT MEN STRIVE
TO GET GRID CLASH

Washington business men, deter
mined TO have the Marine-3rd Corps
Army game played here next fall,
made a strong appeal to the 3rd Corps
Army officials yesterday at Baltimore.
President Clark Griffith of the
Washington base ball club and a dele
cation from the Chamber OF Commerce
represented Washington.
The selection of a site for the game
lies between Washington and Phila-
delphia, as Baltimore, which already
has the Army and Navy game one
week before, is thought to be out OF
the running.
Although the 3rd Corps Army Off
cials made no definite decision, the
Washington delegation is of the opin-
ion that this city has a fine chance OF

Dobie's western sojourn, in view of
all things, seems, therefore, to have
more or less significance. Summer
foot ball practice is not permitted at
the western conference colleges, but
what more reasonable than that, stu
dents say at Illinois, should be more
or less active in a department of uni
versity work that comes under the
regular curriculum.
They have a saying in the confer
ence that sophomore stars are seldom
upper class stars in the big ten foot
ball firma ments. If this should prove
true in the case of Grange, new
luminary, or, better, two, would not
displease Zuppke at all. But some
