head to make sure that his imagination
wasn't deceiving him, he saw not Babe,
but Rhoda herself coming down the
stairs. Rhoda with her red hair all
covered up by the little blue beret his
memory had tried to tell him about
last night. What would she do when
she saw him? Toss her head and walk
scornfully by without speaking at all?
Or pause to make some other blighting
aspersion on his good faith In having
tried to help her.
She didn't do either of those things.
Her face lighted up at the sight Of him,
and when she came within reach she
held out her hand.
"This is an awfully nice way for the
day to begin" she said.
"This is turning out a much better
day than thought 1t could" he OBJ

that this was going to happen. How
did it happen? Do you often come
down these stairs about this timer"

COLUMBIA BEATEN
 IN HENLEY RACES
Boston School Takes Contest, However, Regatta Continues

Henley, England, July P-One American crew, the Columbia uni versity lightweights, went down to defeat at the hands of the Trinity college eight from Cambridge by the cruising margin of four lengths in the Royal Henley regatta today, but the Browne Nichols school from Bos- ton was more successful, winning from Sidney Sussex college with cast.
 The Browne Nichols boys will meet the conquerors of Columbia Ill the semi finals tomorrow. Appar- ently they will have to pick up few seconds time somewhere if they are to be victorious, as Trinity won from Columbia in minutes 2S seconds for the mile and 1ve-sixteenths, which is five seconds faster than the schoolboys registered. Browne Nichols was not extended, however. and may be able to achieve the feat.
 Columbia's scrappy lightweights ;. victorious in all their previous starts in England, were beaten in a gruellins race that was roWed in the face of stiff gale over the whole course. The wind, blowing dea against the crews. proved bigger handicap to the Americans, who av- craze only 150 pounds per man, than to their heavier rivals and Trin- ity led almost from the start.
 Trinity held a quarter-length ad- vantage at the quarter-mile and in- creased this lead to half-length at the half mile. The water was choppy and rowing conditions were particularly difficult in the last part of the course.
 Although not rowing a fast 1T stroke than the Americans, the Cantabs increased their margin to two lengths at the mile and from there they rowed away from tho Columbians to win by four lengths. Both crews were given a tremendous reception at the finish.

Auto Titles Rule Brings Three-Corered Squabble.
OPINION

clared the corporation counsel ruled
some two years ago that the only
way to require registration of titles
would be to obtain Congressional
action.
After inspecting the records of his
office and falling to find any opin.
Ion dealing with the matter, Bride
communicated with Harland and
denied he had made any such rul.
Ing. He said, however. that his
off.hand opinion was that a law
would have to be passed by Con.
gress.

clouded by the inability OF attaches
