NAVY CREW HOPEFUL
OF FINISHING STRONG
Believes That It Will Do Better
in Collegiate Regatta Than
Record Indicates.

A NNAPOLIS, June Naval
~ Academy oarsmen and those in
~ touch with them refuse to be
hopeless over their chances at
Poughkeepsie on June 16 and believe
that their varsity Is capable Of much
more than 1t has shown so far this sea
son.
The squad left Annapolis yesterday,
and was to get its first rowing on the
Hudson today. giving 1t just one week
to prepare for the big race at the scene
Of the contest.
The Navy crew has met five opponents
this season, and has lost to Columbia
Syracuse and Harvard, and defeated
Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, Tech
1t will meet all Of these but Harvard In
the final test.
The new boating Of the Navy varsity
is:
Bow, Gray; 2. Jewett: 8, Crinkley; 4
Shelton; S, Steffanides; 6, Anderson
Z. Schoenie Captain; stroke, Hunter;
coxswain, Fulton.
Hunter, who rowed on the champion
plebes Of 1928. and then for three sea-
sons in every varsity race, is doing good
work in the stroke position. He weighs
lit pounds, but has enough strength
and stamina to keep up the stroke fol
the hard 4 miles.
The new arrangement also puts a lot
of power in the waist Of the boat. Crink-
ley, Shelton, Steffanides and Anderson
are all men of unusual strength.
The Navy is hurt by the comparative.
~ poor showing Of the last few years
in a sport in which 1t Is particularly
anxious to excel.
Manager Maurice w. Hibschman, who
was also the regimental commander, has
resigned from the service to enter bust.

effect until after the race.

~ HICAGo. June s.-Conclusion Of
the intercollegiate track season
finds Southern California Uni
versity again wearing the double
laurel wreath Of I. G. "A and national
collegiate champions. To win both
events for two consecutive years Is q
tremendous compliment to the coaching
skill Of Dean Cromwell and the COM
petitive ability Of his Trojan phalanx.
Southern California won the national
collegiate with considerably more ease
than the I. G. "A, for the simple rea-
son that Leland Stanford had no entries
in the Chicago meet.
The national collegiates always, for
some underlined reason, are staged at q
time when final examinations are being
held in many colleges. The Stanford
men were obliged to hurry home from
Philadelphia for their tests, and Lee
Seminar, the brilliant Illinois hurdler,
was absent for the same reason. II the
national could in some way be sched-
uled q week in advance of the ]. G. 4-A.
1t would permit Of q field even superior
to the one in which 70 colleges particle
pated Saturday.
As Southern California swept to VIC
tory on Stage Field most Of the track
coaches nominated Bill GRADER Of
Southern California and Jack Keller Of
Ohio State as the outstanding sopho-
more productions Of the season. Sitting
as q distinguished spectator, Dink
Templeton Of Stanford, predicted that
GRADER would climb to IA feet
inches or better In the pole vault before
he finished his college career. In the
I. C. "A, GRADER did IA feet and one

Pointers on Golf
By SOL HTETZGER.

Frequently In these articles have
set down the ideas Of star golfers
for playing shots from uneven lies.
They are quite a problem in that
they tend to unbalance one. At that
we usually encounter more Of them
than of level stances in our rounds.
Many private links are so construct
ed as to make q level stance an

Johnny Farrell advocates q great
deal Of practice from such lies,
claiming that the golfer who learns
to master such shots will have no
difficulty in playing his ball correct
ly from a level lie or stance.
There is q lot Of sense in such q

the final round did he find his touch

Tommy Armour now will attempt the

Despite his four victories in Britain,
Hagen never was able to duplicate in
the United States open and both Jim
Barnes and Jock Hutchinson were denied
that honor. Jones turned the trick
first In 1925 and again in 1880. It may
happen that Armour will have the game
for the task. Put nothing past the
Black Scot when his irons are biting
into the green's and he strikes a putting
streak. An Inverness will not be un-
kind to his type Of iron play. Armour
will have ample time for a good rest
before the United States open and with

along, he will be one of he most danger
