Huskies Take All Crew Races
From Bears, Humbling Varsity
By Margin of Seven Lengths

easy stroke that swept them into the
lead just after the start and sent them
away
Hopelessly outclassed but game to
the end, the Californians near the fin-
ish struck up stroke of AZ. The Hus-
kies met the challenge with a beat of
40 and slid over the finish line seven
lengths ahead, while assembled thou
sands cheered.
The race brought the record to 10
victories for the Washington varsity to
eight for California. In two earlier re-
gattas Stanford, no longer competi-
tor, claimed the honors while in 1907
all three shells swamped to make 1t a
mo contest"
WHILE the California varsity was
w thoroughly outclassed. the Bear
Junior varsity shell was the VIC
tim of i'll fortune in its three-mile test.
After leading until the last SO yards.
the Bear Jayvee oarsmen were forced
to concede defeat when George Vine
horn, bow, lost his oar. The Bears
were leading by about four feet and
apparently had the race clinched when
Vinehorn caught his crab" The Hus-
kies shot past and sped over the finish
line by length.
Washington was timed In is minutes
Al seconds, while the California craft
coasted over minus the aid of its bow
oar in 1854 $40.
The Washington freshmen set their
bigger brothers good example by win
ming the two mile race rather easily In
10 minutes 81 $40 seconds. Califor-
Mas yearlings were timed in 1:04.
Rough, choppy water and fairly
brisk breeze that greeted the freshman
race had tempered down somewhat
when the Jayvees and the varsity
churned down the course.
The clean sweep today for Washing
ton equaled the feats Of the crews OF
1880 and 1881. which also turned back
the Bears in all three races.

OPEN TENNIS MEET
GOES INTO DISCARD
Date WrangIe BaIks Plans
for Tourney Strongly 0p-
posed From Start.
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK. April 8.-Because a
M suitable date could not be
found. the United States Lawn
Tennis Associations Executive
Committee today abandoned plans for
holding an open tennis tournament this
year.
Although the inability Of the commit
tee and the Germantown Cricket Club
of Philadelphia, which was to have
staged the tournament, tc agree on a
suitable date was the paramount reason
for abandonment, other factors undoubt-
edly contributed to the decision.
The Germantown club insisted that
the championship be held in September,
but the Executive Committee, while
agreeing that was the best month,
nointed out that the national singles
and doubles and the Pacific Southwest
CHAMPIONSHIPS all were scheduled for
September and therefore there was no
way to provide q place for the open
championship.
The net result was q 15-to-4 vote in
favor of abandoning the precedent-set-
ting tournament this year:
Authority for an open championship,
in which such professional stars as Big
Bill Tilden, Vincent Richards, Hans
Nusslein and others would have met

nous vote of delegates to the annual
meeting of the U. S. L. T. A. two
months ago.
Strong opposition to the plan, how
ever, has developed, especially abroad.

At Least Four Clubs Threats
To Yankees in Pennant Race,
President Harridge Believes

Alva Bradley and Billy Evans are
enthusiastic about the Indians and as
sure me the latter are going to prove
a great surprise.
The Detroit club has made remark
able showing in it's Spring exhibition
games and Manager Bucky Harris be-
lieves his team is greatly improved
over any previous Detroit club he has
managed He has installed for new
men as regulars, Pitcher Schoolboy
Rowe, who is touted as being a second
Babe Ruth: Catcher Reiber, Outflelder
Fox and Third Baseman Owen, the
latter voted the most valuable player
in the International League in 1882.
With such valuable acquisitions. Detroit
cannot help but win more games in
1888 than It did a year ago.
There is no doubt of the Chicago
White SoX having been strengthened.
In Al Simmons they have obtained one
of the outstanding players of the coun-
try. while George Haas and Jimmy
Dykes also will prove valuable assets.
Dykes. because of his superb fielding,
will fill the hole at third base that cost
so many games in 1892.
THE Boston Red Sox have turned the
J. corner There is no doubt of their
being a better ball club than a year
ago. The start of the season next
Wednesday will demonstrate that, be-
cause of their pitching and hitting
power they are going to prove danger
Gus antagonists to the clubs that found
them easy picking in 1882.
A better spirit seems to have come
over the st. Louis Browns, and in their
syhibition games this Spring they have
shown themselves capable of holding
their own with all comers. In morale
they appear to be so per cent stronger
than last season.
In addition radical readjustment Of
the schedule is going to aid materially
in providing a much tighter battle for
the pennant. which means that the gap
between first and last place is going
to be reduced considerably.

BY WILLIAM HARRIDGE,
President the American League.


HICAGO, April S.-Not in sew
eral years have SO many Ameri-
4 can League club presidents and
managers been so insistent that
they have first division clubs-teams
that will be contenders for the pennant.
Naturally, in view of their great show
ing in 1892, when they climaxed the
winning of the American League pen
nar1t by IS games, and followed by tax
ing four straight world series games
from the Chicago Cubs, National League
champions, we believe the Yankees will
start the 1888 season with very strong
club, with the idea of again carrying
away the honors. However four or pos
sibly five other clubs in our league, in
view Of their added strength, un-
doubtedly will make 1t decidedly inter-
esting for New York.
1t Is too early to say whether or not
the Athletics have been weakened by
the sale of AL Simmons, Jimmy Dykes
and George Haas to Chicago, but Connie
Mack informs me he believes his team
wlll give a good account of itself in
the championship race with Higgins on
third, Cramer In center, Finney in lett,
and either Bob johnson or Coleman in
right field.
CLARK GRIFFITH is confident that
~ the trades he made with st. Louis,
Detroit and Cleveland during the
Winter have given Washington the
needed strength to be more of con-
tender than in 1882, when it finished
third. There is no doubt of his hav-
ing one of the best balanced teams in
the majors-good pitching, catching
and hitting, with brilliant fielding.

the disease.
Ruthless destruction Of diseased
