ROWING HONORS
TO COAST CREW

The aquatic sea ason was attended by
unprecedented interest, due not only
to the visit to Poughkeepsie Of fhe
University of Washington and Wis
consin crews, but to the Increased
number of preliminary races contested
by strong crews.
OF the Eastern crews the Navy and
Yale held the dominant positions. On
the Pacific Coast Washington easily
disposed of California in the April
regatta on Lake Washington.
At Poughkeepsie, after thrilling
4-mile thrash in which the Navy made
a memorable squirt in the last mile,
the University OF Washington eight
won out, leading the Midshipmen by
a margin so small that from the shore
it was impossible to tell which crew
had finished ahead.
Yale won the annual Thames re-
gatta over q strong Harvard crew.
Since Yale and the Navy did not inset.
1t Is not possible to say which was the
stronger combination.

supremacy as single sculler and
other Philadelphia oarsmen captured

PRO FOOT BALL DIS
APPOINTS

Professional foot ball did not live
up to expectations. Considering the
number pfegridiron stars of various
colleges who were lured onto the mer-
cenary gridiron, it would seem that If
ever the game was to get over it
would have been this year.
A better showing probably would
have been made had there not been
two rival major foot ball leagues in
cenfers where crowds attend intercol.
leciate foot ball struggles. The con-
fiiet Of games among the professionals
divided the support, which, had 1t been
concentrated upon one eleven in each
city, might have enabled the teams at
least te par expenses.

effected one will have fsirer basis for

In the American League race Of

carried them along irf first place from
May to the end OF the schedule.
This Is one OF the hardest Of all things
to do in hase ball. The team in front
that can remain In front practically
without interruption is the target of
all the other clubs in the league.
The Yankees were knocked back to
second place on the week end of
April "a. and that was the only time
they were lower than first plaee on
any week end OF the year.
At times the New York team was
so far ahead that the owners of other
American League clubs feared one

the Athletics would get settled every
now and then. and Washington would
occasionally stage burst Of the speed
with which the players had been
equipped when they won remnants.
Cleveland Late In Fight.
Toward the latter part of the season
Cleveland settled into a steady con-
tender against New York, because the
Cleveland pitchers began to pitch bet
ter and better. Hut Cleveland was
too late in entering warmly into the
fight, and the team had heen so badly
worsted by Chicago eariy~in the race
that it never quite overcame the set
hack.
The Yankees lost their series with
Philadelphia, the Athletics winning
i3 games of %. This was because the
New York team could not win from
Lefty Grove. The Yankees won from
all other teams except Cleveland, that
team breaking even with them.
The percentage by which the
Yankees won their pennant was .ss1,
with 81 victories and SO defeats. 1t

by st. Leuis In the National League.

son was over there were some who
began to agitate a divided season for
their league in 1927, a very doubtful
experiment.
The supremacy Of Baltimore was
overthroMn in the International
League. Toronto won the pennant
after Buffalo had made a very good
fight with Toronto to defeat the
former champions. Newark, too, was
a good base. bah team, and the fine
support fos Nthe game In that city,
which experts had argued for years
existed, If brought out properly, made
a factor for prosperity in the Inter.
national.
Louisville Surprises Many.
In the American Association the
Louisville club won the championship,
to the surprise of everybody except
the Louisville club. There was on
idea before the race that Louisville
could not do so we'll after Joe Me-
Carthy had left that team TO be man
ager of the Chicago Nationals. But a
new manager, William A. Meyer,
proved to be quite as diplomatic and
as successful in matching up his
men, day by day, as his predecessor.
The. spiendidly compact circuit Of
the American Association responded
excellentIy to the hackers of the
clubs, except in Columbus, where the
team was ludicrously weak as COM
pared with the other teams of the
circuit and its weakness left such
gap all of the year that the race
was marred by 1t.
Indianapolis, Toledo and Milwau-
kee contributed their share TO make
good race of 1t In the Amer
ican Association. and at one time 1t
appeared as if the Milwaukee team
might take the pennant to the west
shore of Lake Michigan. Louisville
was the better finisher.
Los Angeles Romps Away.
In the Pacific Coast League the
| Los Angeles team got a better than
