NAVY SURPRISES
SPORT WORLD BY
CREWS VICTORY
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June II
UP)-When a strictly 'underdog
crew, that had been beaten by
everybody but the Coney Island
beach patrol. goes up against tbs
strongest field in the country ano
not only whips that field but driy-
ing rainStorm as well, it seems j
downright shame to suggest thai
the heroic boatload should not have
won at all.
Yet. without meaning to detrac;
one whit of glory from Navys
smashing triumph in the varsity
race here yesterday and giving the
Middies full credit for their form
and power, 1t seems to this writer
that Cornell and not the Nay
should be 1881 intercollegiate var
sity rowing champions of the coun-
try today.
What we mean is that Cornell.
despite the fact that it finished a
length and half back of the Navy,
looked to be the strongest crew on
the river. 1t was the consensus OF
the experts that Cornell's failure TO
begin its drive ar the two and a hall
mark instead of the three mile flag.
cost Jim Wray's boatload its sec
ond successive Poughkeepsie regat-
ia. Moreover, 1t seemed that the
Ithacans were entirely too absorbed
in the progress of Syracuse, their
lane neighbor far out in the river.
They seemed to be laboring under
the impression that Syracuse. not
Washington or Navy, was the crew
to beat.
Make no mistake about it, NAVY
sent real crew out on the Hudson
yesterday. If you don't believe it
the Middies' time of Is minutes
sd 1-5 seconds should convince you,
for it is the fourth best time ever
made in the long history Of the re-
gatta and less than 20 seconds slow
er than the all-time mark hung up
by CALIFORNIA; mighty 1928 outfit
First Big Triumph
The victory marked Nays first
major triumph of the year. The
MiddieS were defeated by Harvard
Columbia and Syracuse, the big dis
appointment of yesterdays race
during the regular season.
If Syracuse was the biggest dis
appointment of the regatta, Colum-
bia was a close second. Dick Glen
dons Lions, 1929 champions. like
Cornell and Washington, went tc
the post undefeated and were ex-
pected to finish no worse than one
two, three. The best they could dc
was place seventh, a ripple ahead
of untried Wisconsin. NJ I. T
brought up the rear. California, the
other far western entrant, took
fourth money with Syracuse in fifth
place and supposedly helpless Penn
Sylvania in sixth.
Washington rowed a beautiful
race, finishing third That is, the
Huskies set nice pace, made no
mistakes and were beaten simply
because they didn't have the
strength TO match Cornell and Ma
Wy in that last mile.
The varsity race was rowed in
weather most miserable for the
spectators but almost ideal for the
oarsmen.

Pacific Coast
League Scores
BY UNITED PRESS

The Hollywood Stars held a five
game lead in the Pacific Coast
league over the Portland Beavers
today, largely because Of Dave
Barbee'S life saving homer in the
ninth inning against the Mission
Reds.
The score was tied two all and
it looked like an extra inning ses-
sion when the Hollywood ace loosed
his big guns and pounded out a
circuit drive. The game ended, 3
to 2.
Portland lost an opportunity to
maintain its relative position with
the Stars when the Beaver-Sacra-
mento game was postponed because
of wet grounds.
The San Francisco Seals started
drive for place among the first
division clubs by pounding four Los
Angeles pitchers and winning easi-
