Unexpectedly, the Navy ruled the in

When nine eight-oared crews started

Less than 20 minutes later, this

heavily favored Cornell crew, defend

The Navy followed Washington's

This Navy crew staged one of the
most astonishing come-backs in row.

season in which they had taken lick
ings from Columbia, Harvard and
Syracuse.
The Midshipmen rowed like cham.
pions. Their time was Is minutes,
81 Us seconds, the third fastest time
ever registed on the Hudson for the
four mile route. The Midsfipmea
stood off Cornelrs champions by q
length and a half and Washington
by two lengths.
California was fourth, three and a
half lengths back of Washington,
Syracuse was fifth, Pennsylvania a
surprisingly good sixth and Columbia,

The talk that "Old Dick" Glendon

coach, Jim Wray, had no excuses

WHITE SOX'S $4,000 FLOP
IS PAYING FIRST DIVIDENDS
Bill CisselI, Former Cavalry.
man, Leading Way in Field
ing and Hitting

Chicago, June 17.-P-Bill Cissell
the ex-cavalryman from the United
States army, is back riding 'em high
and wide with the Chicago White Sox
this year after three disappointing
campaigns.
When Charles A. Comiskey, owner
Of the White Sox, startled the base
ball world in 1928 by buying Cissell
from Portland of the Pacific Coast
league for $l23. 600, fans expelled Cis-
sell to do a lot Of startling things.
He did them, but they all startled
the White Sox instead Of the opposi-
ton. He fielded poorly and his bat
ting was under the 800 mark for his
first three seasons.
So far this year, however, Cissell
has come back In big style. He has
been winning game after game for the
White Sox with long hits in the
pinches and has turned in some Of
the choicest fielding to be seen around
the American league.
He looks like he has arrived" al
last to pay dividends on the large
Comiskey investment.
Cissell's rise in the world Of base
ball was a story book romance. Back
in 1925 he was with the United
States cavalry. where he gained the
attention of a scout from the De-
Moines club of the Western league.
The scout talked with Cissell
learned that he would rather play
baseball than ride horses any day
and forthwith purchased his release
from the army for $50.
Cissell burned up the Western
league In 1926 and Des MoineS re.
ceived q fancy dividend on its invest.
ment by selling him to Portland fol
SIG, 900. After two bright years al
Portland. he was sold to the White
Sox for $4,000 in cash and for play
ers valued at $48,0o0-an astonishing
total of $123,000.

Does . wide stance hinder the
pivot:
= y
Pivoting Is difficult If the feet are
spread far apart. The player with
the wide stance usually has q ten
dency to sway. II one sways instead
of pivoting naturally, 1t is impossible
to get the body into the shot for those
extra yards. Often the result is a
stroke across the ball, ending in q
slice.
It is easier to pivot by keeping the
feet closer together. The distance
between Bobby Jones' feet sometimes
is only 10 inches. His body turns
and any sway is checked. The mar
row stance also brings the player
closer to the ball with the result that
the swing is rounder.
Free turning Of the hips, which Is
possible with the narrow stance, en-
ables the player to impart consider
able ~acceleration to the club-head by
the body turn alone.

CAPITAL FEELS
TEXAS QUAKE

With the Southwest terror
stricken by the recent severe
earth tremors, citizens Of Wash
ington went placidly about their
business yesterday unaware that
the shock had been felt even as
far away as this city.
DR.. j. S. O'Connor, of George
town University. reports that the
quake was recorded on instru-
ments in his laboratory at 2::48
o'clock yesterday afternoon, last
ing until 3 o'clock. They were
not, however. as severe as the
tremors of two days ago, which
were distinctly felt by Father
O'Connor's scientific apparatus.
The tembloreS cost the city OF
Valentine, Tex, $4,000 on Sun
day. The population, numbering
about 500, was terrified, rushing
into the streets and crowding the
churches, imploring divine aid.
DR.. O'Connor does not believe,
however, that the disturbance was
more severe than is expected in
the quake region. The reaction
as far away as Washington was
more intense than is general.
