Oxford and Cambridge, Yale and Harvard have more rowing tradi- tion behind them but neither of these classics offers any greater competitive excitement or thrill than the annual battle on the water for Pacific Coast supremacy between California and Washing ton.
 California, with one of the fin est College crews of all time, has held the edge over the past few years but the Bear Oarsmen who won the Poughkeepsie blue ribbon and the Olympic laurels in 1928 have been lost by graduation and Ky Ebright is shaping new com bination on the Oakland Estuary. The 1880 crew is a sophomore out fit.
 Up North, Al Ulbriekson has the makings of another great Washing ton eight of the type that was for a long time supreme on the coast and 1-2 at Poughkeepsie consistent ly. The Huskies managed to finish second to Columbia last year, after losing to California on the coast. They will have at least an even chance in all probability to turn the tables on the Bears in the big race about the middle of April. No matter what happens then, both teams will be East again to chal- lenge Columbia and the rest of the Armada.

Mickey must tangle with Rene De Vos, the aging Belgian, to gain reinstate- ment in New York State The bout itself does not look particularly dif- ficult. But Mickey is having great difficulty in pairing his weight down even close to the 160 pound limit. The wise ones believe Mickey will make the weight only at the cost of his strength, leaving himself mark for the canny Belgian.

The history of the mile speed record for automobiles is one of the most dramatic in all sports annals. It has been centered almost eXclu- sively on this ten-mile strip of beach at Daytona, where William K. Vanderbilt in Mercedes in 1904, first set mark of 92.307 m.ph. This surpassed the achieve ment of Henry Ford in his Ford "999" which travelled at a pace of 91.370 in 1903 Ford failed in 1905 at Daytona to surpass Wander bilt's American record.
 Since then, the exception of 1926 when J. G. P. Thomas and Captain Malcolm Campbell shattered the record at Pendine, all the mile records have been made at Day. tona. Oldfield and Burrnan in the Benz, DePalma in the Packard and Milton in the Duesenberg, all famous American drivers, monopo- lized these records until 1920.
 Milton that year roared down the beach at 156.046 mp.h. Since then with the single exception of Keech's performance in the White Triplex, all the record d-busting has been done by the British drivers-Guinness, Thomas, Eldridge, Campbell and Segrave.

IMMIGRATION LAW
CHANGE PROPOSED.
Senate Adopts Norbeck
Amendment Repeating Ma
tionaI Origins Clause.

The national origins basis for restrict
ing immigration would be repealed by an
amendment offered by Senator Nor
beck, Republican, South Dakota, and
adopted yesterday by the Senate.
1t was a surprise move by the South
Dakotan and his proposal was adopted,
80 to "a, providing also for further re-
striction, which would cut down the
annual immigration from 10000 to
10000.
Senator Norbeck offered his PROPOSE
ton as an amendment to the bill by
Senator Harris, Democrat, Georgia, to
provide for quota restrictions on immi-
grants from the Central and South
American countries.
Harris Opposes Amendment.
Senator Harris is one Of the strong
advocates of the national origins basis
of immigration and when he lost the
fight to keep the repeal amendment out
of his measure the Georgian voted for
motion by Senator Glass, Democrat,
Virginia, to recommit the whole bill to
committee. That motion lost by a
vote of SO to "a.
At adjournment the Harris measure
was Gull ~ 1lluoO NC ACOCO
upon by the Senate and House and
signed by the President before the pro-
vision for repeal of the national origins
basis could become effective.
Foes Of the national origins provision
commended it trimmed the allotments on
immigration allowed to Germany and
the Scandinavian countries and allowed
increased immigration from England
and Southern European countries.
Rejects Hoover Proposal.
President Hoover in his message to
Congress at the opening of the special
session asked it not to permit the
national origins provision to go into
effect, but the Senate refused to act
on that request and the method became
operative last July /. In the House,
which in the last Congress had agreed
to repeal national origins, the request
of the President was held in allegiance
to await action by the Senate and the
proposal has not been brought before
that branch in this Congress.
There was series OF roll calls yes
terday on immigration proposals. Sena-
tor Black, Democrat, Alabama. sought
to put up the bars against all inmigra-
ton for three years, beginning next
January l, but he lost by vote of 81
to 20,
