OXFORD CAMBRIDGE
CREWS ARE PRIMED

By the Associated Press.
PUTNEY ON THAMES England,
March 22.-Oxford and Cambridge con-
clude the first century of their historic
rowing rivalry tomorrow morning.
One hundred years after their annual
duel of Craftsmanship was inaugurated,
two cleaning. slender racing shells, one
carrying the light blue colors of oxford
and the other the dark blue of Cam
bridge, will shoot from the shadows of
Putney Bridge just before noon. The
eighty-f1rst Oxford Cambridge boat race
will be under way.
Up the Thames on the crest of the
tide, A miles to Mortlake, the Fights
from the Isis and the Cam will fight for
rowing supremacy in race unique in
the chronicles of Craftsmanship.
Twenty minutes or so after the crack
of the starters gun the winner should
be known. Another few minutes and
the news will have girdled the globe to
EngliShmen waiting in Africa, Canada
Australia and in all the other British
possessions scattered in the seven seas
where the boat race" stirs interest
equalled by few other events on the eX-
tensive and varied British sports cal
endar.
The eightieth renewal of the rivalry
started in 1929 finds the two crews ap-
parently well matched. Neither crew
has shown any marked advantage dur
ing the training period.
OF the 80 races rowed to date Oxford
has won 40, Cambridge, 80. and one
that of 1877, was dead heat.
With heavier and more experienced
crew Cambridge rules a slight favorite
but oxford has shown marked improve
ment in the last two weeks. The OK
ford crew averages about 1855 pounds
compared to ITO for Cambridge.

WOOD SEEKS SPEED
MARK AS A SOLACE
Goes After Mile Record to
Assuage Motor Boat De-
feat by Segrave.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI BEACH, Fla, March a.
Having lost the worlds motor boat
championship to Maj H. o. D. Segrave
of England in a competitive water
classic here, Gar Wood today prepared
for an attempt to surpass his own mile
straightaway record, which he set in
Detroit last Summer.
With his powerful 12-cylinder boat,
Miss America VII, tuned to perfection.
and with ideal weather conditions pre-
vailing, Wood hoped to break his own
mark of 92.8 miles an hour over a
straightaway measured mile.
Under the rules. Wood must make
six rounds over the course, three with
and three against the wind. He then
is privileged to take his fastest lap
each way for the highest average two
way speed
Segrave, who nosed out the veteran
American boat racer in competitive
race during the annual Biscayne Bay
regatta, ending yesterday, had planned
to make an attempt today to set new
world record for single-motored hydro
planes, but was forced to abandon the
plan because of damage to Miss Eng
land during the regatta. Upon exam
ination of his craftStoday he found 10
cracks in the bottom of the boat, which
caused it to leak like a sieve.
The British sportsman, who also set
worlds automobile speed record Of
231 miles an hour at Daytona Beach
last week, declared he definitely was
| through with boat racing for this year,
but probably would be back next year
with boat which he hopes will be able
to beat Woods straightaway mile rec
ord. He plans to leave here Sunday for
New York en- route back to England.
His automobile racing Gays are finished,
he said, but he still expects to build
motor boats as hobby
Wood planned to make his speed
trials against time late in the day,
when the waters of Indian River are
calm. He expressed confidence in being
able to break his own mark, but re-
GREETED that Segrave's boat was not In
condition to make a speed trial.

Shocked When Woman Rode
 Horseback Astride

Constantinople, Aug. 21. NP)-- A point of Oriental family honor was on trial today at the state courts at Stamboul, where a young lad is being tried for the murder of his young aunt for riding horse back astride.
 The young murderer, Buran Ed din Bey, 16-year- old Turkish school boy, slew his aunt, IS, apparently because of the moral shock suffered by the boy at seeing his relati"e riding the horse in a manner which in Turkey is regarded as uncon- yentional.
 The incident took place at a picnic. A sister of the victim test flied that one of the guests at the picnic placed the girl, Muyet Hanum. astridc the saddle to give her her first lesson in horseback riding.
 A priest testified that the hoy visited him or the evening of th5 incident and complained bitterly oi his auntS conduct. The priest, see. ing the lad suffering from the moral shock, tried to calm him, but Burai left hurriedly, went into his aunt's bedroom and slew her in the pres ence of her mother.

1 Williamstown, Mass. Aug 21 (E) The London money market wants the proposed international bank To- catcd in London because it doubts whether the bank, if located in any other major money market woul l be allowed to operate without con- stant political pressure being brought to bear upon it, Prof. T. F. Gregory. London banking and eco- homie expert said today before members of the Institute of poli- ties.
 "Prc-war experience showed that all international loans were fre- quently made subordinate to the for cign policy of the French govern ment and London did not want the working of the new bank to be ex- posed to similar dangers Professor l Gregory declared
 Prestige Considered
 At the same time considerations of prestige were also present Lon- | don did not want 10 admit that any i other center could possibly be as good from the standpoint of the ef- iicicnt working of the bank as it was itself A point of view which was justified if the importance of the London market and the great turnover of funds there were borne in mind"
