HARVARD CREW
SLIGHT FAVQRITE IN
3 WAY RACE TODAY,

Cambridge, Mass, May 21-(P)-
Eight cared crews Of Harvard, Penn
sylvania and Massachusetts, Institute
of Technology worked out on the
Charles River today in final prepara-
ton for their triangular regatta to-
morrow. The Penn crew added a
morning spin to familiarize them
selves with the mile and three quar-
tiers course. but Crimson and Tech
were content with the regular late
afternoon paddle.
Harvard's first varsity, by reason
of tits victory over Princeton, ruled
a slight favorite tonight. The Penn
sylvania and Technology crews each
had suffered two defeats, the former
at the hands Of Navy and Yale and
the latter of Navy and Columbia.
Head coach Edward Etevens Of Har-
ward declined however. to express
optimism as to the result pointing to
the fact that the Crimson crews were
not boated until the last week in
March, due to a late spring in New
England, and had rowed together
less than their Pennsylvania rivals.
The powerful Crimson eight out
weighs both its rivals, the oarsmen
averaging nearly 178 pounds to an
average of III for Pennsylvania and
Technology. PENIS Condition and
greater experience in short distance
rowing gave that crew. it was be-
lieved, some advantage over the
heavier Crimson eight at this stage
of the season. Added interest at
tached to the race as indicating the
relative strength of Harvard and
Yale. The Ellis defeated the Penn
sylvania crew sstroked by Don Ir-
mayer OF Wisconsin. by a narrow
margin in their recent meeting.
Wally Beer of New York City will
act as coxswain for the Harvard
Varsity, displacing c. P. Forzheimer
of Syracuse, n. Y, who stored the
Crimson shell against Princeton. All
three crews have strong quotas of
veterans.
The races will be rowed late Sat-
urday, the three Freshmen crews
opening the program and the junior
carsity and carsity events following
at intervals of 5 minutes. In the
event of rough water postponements
will be announced for half hour per-
iods, and if conditions in the Lower
Charles Basin prove impossible for
rowing the races will be at the Hen
ley distance of a mile and five six

CARPENTER AND
HUFFMAN DRAW IN
BOUT AT new YORK

New York, May 21.-(P)-Fighting
back at the cross roads of a long
and colorful career in an effort to
regain a challenging position in the
light heavyweight ranks, Georges
Carpenter, French man of destiny
slugged his way through 10 torrid
rounds to draw with the youthful
California contender. Eddie Huffman,
before a thronD of $4,000 spectators
at Madison Square Garden tonight.
The decision of the judges was ia
vorably received by an apparently
impartial crowd. The three officials,
however, failed to agree in their ver-
diets. George T. Kelly of Yonkers,
n. Y, turned in a decision for Car
pentier. Jim Gearns of New York
gave the verdict to Huffman. while
Referee Eddie Purdy, casting the de-
Gliding ballot, voted the match a
draw.
Keeling under terrific right hand
blows which sent him staggering to
the ropes at the close of the fifth,
seventh and ninth rounds, Carpenter
rallied sensationally in the tenth,
turning the tide of battle with saw
age rights to the jaw which spun the
Pacific coast man around repeated
ly. Both men, spent and bleeding
at the end, were sent from the ring
with tremendous ovation after a
terrific bombardment had brought
the spectators OF their feet in every
round.
Round Contemporaries started the
first punch, left which was short.
Three jabbing lefts sent Huffman's
head back and the Californian gave
ground. A swinging right landed on
Carpenters face and he dropped to
his knee but was up Immediately. A

COLBY AND maine
IN STATE TITLE
CLASH TODAY

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Waterville, Maine, May 22.-Colby
will start her third state series game
here tomorrow by entertaining the
University of Maine baseball team
in the game which will probably de-
termine the state champion. Colby
has yet to be DEBATED in the series
and has taken both Bates and Bow
dom by decisive margins. The first
game of the year was an exhibition
between Maine and Colby with the
latter winning but that game cannot
be taken as a basis for q prediction
as it was in the very early part of
the season. If Colby can take to-
days game she should be able to
win the series as this will give her
a commanding lead over her oppon-
ents.
The men who will start the game
for Colby will be the same as have
been the mainstays during the sea-
son. The pitching selection has not
yet been decided definitely but it is
surely between Anderson. Trainor,
and Heal with the possibilities In
that order. These men have been
given prolific work for the Maine
game and each has learned the op-
ponents weaknesses as we'll as pos
sible. Keith will start the backstop
ball rolling and his improvement
during the season has made him an
extremely valuable man. MCGOWAN
at first will be dependable and his
hitting and fielding will both be fac
tors in the contest. Macdonald will
start at second, O'Brien at short, and
Smart at third. C'Brien has been a
surprise this season and his hitting
has made him very important in the
offensive game. Captain Peabody,
Fagerstrom, and Franzen will cover
the outer garden.
The hitting Of the team has con-
tinued to feature the week and they
have been preparing to make a day
Of it against Maine if the university
pitching selection gives them an op-
portunity. The work Of Erickson in
the game at Bowdoin, especially at
the stick, make him also a possibil-
ity for the game today and his ad-
dition to the team would increase its
hitting strength. Callaghan may al
so get into the fray and If he does
should have a good day both in the
field and at the pate.
