- The college rowing feet. as
sembled here for the Intercol-
legiate Rowing Associations
regatta next Monday, is having
more than its usual trouble In getting
into condition for the four-n1ile classic.
Weather conditions have been such
for the last two weeks that not one OF
the crews representing the nine col
leges entered in the regatta. has been
able to row against time under salts
factory conditions.
Wind and river conditions were
against the oarsmen all last week. Yes
terday the Hudson was as smooth as
n1illpond, but the intense heat, with
the mercury lowering at or above 80
coaches to curtail all but easy work.
Three of the varsities-Navy, Wis
consin and Washington-underwent
some shutting yesterday. "Old Dick"
Glendon moved up Weshoper from No.
to bow in the Navy varsity, promoted
Jung from the junior varsity to the
varsity No. oar and sent Pieczentkow-
ski into the second-string shell.
Coach Mike Murphy, worrying Q bit
over Wisccnsins defeat at the hands of
Washington last Friday, changed Wood
man from No. 3 to bow, sent Goodman
to No. and ousted Sores from the FIRST
string shell. at least temporarily.
Al Ulbrickson, coach of Washington,
was satisfied with the Bears except for
the coxswain post. He replaced Harris
there with Orr.
Massachusetts, Techs coach, Bill
Haines, announced that Evans, out for
some time with strained back, would
be back at his regular No. 2 position

N VIEW YORK, June 18.-Leo Ler-
N mond, husky flyer from the
NJ Boston A. A., had to his credit
1 today the second fastest out
door mile ever run in this
country
Lermond, who only year ago was

Torrance for the furlongs in benefit

Lermond's time was the fastest any
American has done the mile since 1915,
when Norman Taber of Brown reeled
off the distance in Alp 3-5 at Cam

stood as a world record until Paavo
Nurmi lowered 1t to 4:102 -5, in 1923.
The Boston A. A. flyer had the adj
vantage last night of being pushed to
the utmost by Gus Moore, young Negro
cross country star of the Brooklyn har-
riers Moore who holds the national
cross-country title, led Lermond most
of the way, but wilted in the final dash
to the tape and finished some 80 yards

HAGEN SEES JONES
AS PROS NEMESIS
Again viii Be Paid Players
Against Bobby in Open,
Walter Declares.
BY WALTER HAGEN.
British Open Golf Champion.

THERE seems no check in the
steady increase in the interest
in golf. Since the United States
L Ryder Cup team returned from
Europe, Horton Smith and
have been doing a little touring. And
in my eight years of transforming
have never seen more enthusiasm than
in the cities where we have appeared
Toledo, Detroit. Buffalo and Grand
Rapids.
We are playing every day and getting
in shape for the American open cham
pionship at Winged Foot. Our sched-
ule calls for a few more exhibitions and
for participation in the New York State
open just before the American open.
This years National open will be
big show as far as the public is con-
cerned. understand the United States
Golf Association expects all attendance
records to be broken.
For the golfers the event presents an
other golden opportunity for fame and
considerable wealth. While the money
value of the open has been badly ex-
aggerated by many writer's, there is no
doubt the title is worth from $4,000 to
$780, 900 for the II months. after 1t is
won. The figure depends largely on the
type of player who wins.
Once more it will be the professionals
against Bobby Jones. I have no idea
how much Bobby has been playing, or
how seriously he is taking it this year.
But assume that as long as he has en-
tered he intends to get as fit as his law
business will permit, and that as usual.
when the event swings into the closing
stages, the Albanian will be in there
pitching.
Next year will be Walker Cup year.
The American amateurs again will go
to Europe and 1 feel certain that until
Jones has made this 1880 tour and
taken another good crack at the British
amateur championship, he will not per-
NIT his game to lose its championship
qualities. I expect Bobby to arrive at
Winged Foot with as much stun on the
ball as he has ever had.

tennis here, by which she defeated

After being at a Al disadvantage in
the final set Moorhead rallied bravely
and swept five straight games.
1t was brilliantly contested match,
with Miss Moorheads greater speed
being perhaps the deciding factor.

putt for par 3 hung on the lip of
the cup. Man. it was so close that
part of the ball was over the edge;
it was peeking down into the hole.
I never saw a ball as close to the
hole before in all my life without
being in it.

and fall in before he has to hit it.
But the ball stays up. So Freddie

ball never moves.
And Freddie had to back off and
hit it again. And that was a on

this very desirable position with your
head be sure to pull your chin in
and hold it there.
You may appear like an old
rooster looking for a morSel of food

should-as Is the cock of the walk

Keeping the chin in and head

tremendously in anchoring this

It may be recalled that when Miss

green she had lead of three holes.
When finally she holed out that ad-
vantage had been reduced TO two, de-
spite the fact it had taken the Amer
par 4 route. Miss Wethered had
So wild-eyed was the gallery at this
juncture, so completely out of hand,

Reasons for Action.
Joyce accepted the situation just as
her American rival did, with outward
euuanimity, and went on to victory
But those who knew her did not doubt
that the excitement, the confusion, the
intensity of this championship event
served to confirm in the girls mind an
utter distaste for it all, especially as
she had three years Of peace in which
she had played the game for the fun
of the thing.
II anything further were needed it
came recently when the champion went
out one evening to play a quiet nine
holes with her father. Instead of the
tranquil interlude which the girl had
counted upon, several hundred spec
tators were trailing her before the pair
had done three holes.
She is not the sOrt of champion who
likes this, or, in fact, will tolerate 1t,
while at the same time, knowing that
nothing can be done about it so long as
she is In the limelight as not only a
champion, but champion Of cham
pions.
The cure. of course, is not to be a
champion, to retire to that obscurity
which is so grateful to certain natures,
there to play or not to play as she sees
ut and in playing to do SO under con-
ditions which meet her desires. So
this is what Joyce Wethered will do.
Her place in international golf is Sc
cure To date there has been no wom-
an golfer like her. She stands alone.
Girls Much Alike.
And yet Glenna Collett as her play
in the St. Andrews tournament showed,
is close to the English girl not only in
technique, but in craftsmanship, fight
ing spirit and feminine charm. Her
triumph would be hailed in England
as here were she to succeed Miss
Wethered.
Perhaps had Miss wethered ever
played in a tournament in this country
she might have better feeling about
championship events. Certainly, so far
as the writer's experience of national
meets in this country goes, the eff
cheney of the stewards has been
matched by the consideration and
poise of the galleries.

HEALTHY THOUGHT HABITS

Of course parents are generally
desirious of having their children
establish good habits. They look
with apprehension on any tend
ency toward forming a bad one. IF
Billie seems careless with his
clothes and extremely slow in
learning that they should be hung
up and not laid down, special
means are taken to teach him this
more commendaJble way Of treating
his property. If Mary is acquiring
a habit of incorrectly handling her
fork at the table, at once mother
turns her attention to correcting
this fault.
Now any visible habit is much
easier to detect and correct even,
than is the habit of unhealthy
thinking. And yet such a habit in
any of our children may lead to a
much more serious consequence
than an undesirable visible habit.
81 was shocked when / finally
realized that Lucille was unhap-
Ply because she was indulging in a
daily habit of self-pity," said her
mother as we talked together. 81
traced it back to the mistake in
her thinking when Jane, her play
mate, was given a larger doll for
Christmas than she received. She
lost all the pleasure Of her own doll
in her pity for herself because she
could not have as lovely a doll as
James. This way of thinking grew
upon her. Another playmate had
curly hair. Hers was straight. She
wondered why she couldn't have
had curls and grieved over it. It
went on until this hidden habit be-
came very apparent in her atti-
tude and actions. Our little daugh-
ter had to go thru really serious
time learning to form entirely new
thought habits for herself"
Some children form lazy thought
habits and this tendency must be
watched for and broken up by
teaching them to form active, Wig
orous thought habits. Take a boy
for instance who is most willing for
you to tell him why this and the
how of that instead of first think
ing out the why and the how for
himself as nearly as he can. If you
give him piece of work to do he
seldom plans how he can do it in
the quickest, best and simplest
way but goes ahead haphazardly.
He is not lacking in intelligence,
but is mentally lazy.
There are rebellious habits and
fear habits that many, many child
rem form. Where does the rebel
