 Waterville showed plenty of strength extensively in routing the Sacred Hearts, 12 to 4, while the Tribunes again loomed as pennant eontenders defeating Joe Stroka- laitis and the Brooklyn A. C., 4 to ., in a game featured by pitching performances of the former East ern leaguer and Selensky, strikeout king of last season.
 Jack Slattery Falters.
 Jack Slatery made his debut on ehe mound with the Hills after three years of idleness, and although charged with the defeat hurled blood in the seventh when Earl Lewis clouted one of Heggarty's s high fast ones to deep left for the circuit. In the following canto they pushed another across. Null len walked with one away and stole second. Bowen received an Annie Oakley and both advanced on a wild pitch which hit the plate. Charley Lewis fled out to Colby in deep left, Mullen scoring easily after the catch.
 With things looking gloomy for the Tommies who were helpless in making things gloomy for Jack Slattery, came to life. Fitzpatrick fouled to Pat Slattery, but Hennie Santopietro walked. Heggarty aid ed his own cause with 8 long double to the right field trees. Joe Jannetty poled out his second hit. a double to left center scoring both runners and trying the ball game. Clayt Lattimer came to life and and rapped out a single to left, his first hit in five trips, scoring the Tommies third baseman with the deciding run. Here J. Slattery was yanked and "Packo" Fitzgerald substituted. Herb Colby grounded to Bowen on the first pitch who touched out Lattimer coming into LhAiu anu 0OAOAS0 NOADy aJ HIS on a meat throw to c. Lewis.
 In the Tommies third, Jannetty singled to left, but the ball rolled through Happy" Shea's legs and Jannetty reached thir easily, only to be declared out for not touching second. A minute later Colby came through with a single to cen- ter which would have meant a run. Every inning but the second and eight saw the Tommies leaving two or more men stranded on the pathes.

LONG BEACH, July 7. - The
first national intercollegiate regat-
Ia ever held on the Pacific coast
will open at Marine stadium late
today with three far east and three
far west crews fighting for supre-
macy.
Cornell, Yale and California will
meet in the first of two preliminary
heats while Harvard, Washington
and U. c. L. A. will match oars in
the second
The first two in each qualifying
heat will go on to race for the
Richard j. Schweppe national in
tercollegiate trophy on Saturday.
Yale and Washington are heavy
favorites to win their respective
trials and then to battle it out in
the final. Cornell is considered a
dark horse and u. C. L. A. is given
little, if any, consideration.
The best heat today should be
the first with Cornell and Califor-
mia fighting each other to move
with Yale into the final. The sec
ond heat offers little interest since
both Washington and Harvard
seem to outclass U. C. L. A.
Some 10000 people are expected
TO look on today as the crews sweep
down the 1000 meter course that
was laid out especially for the
1882 Olympic games. At least
25 900 people will see the final to-
morrow.

SPORTAPARADE.
MARHN2haIEalD
BY HENRY McLEMoRE

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, July This de-
partment's annual prize of three
Siberian huskies and a nut-crack-
ing outfit complete with bowl and
picks, to the sports organization
showing the most optimism, IS
hereby awarded TO the Montclair
Athletic cluG of MonHlair, New
Jersey.
Montclair won when, finding it.
self low in funds, it was announced
that the New Jersey state tennis
championship, which it has been
running for nigh on to half q
century, would be conducted this
year on a pay-as-you-go policy. On
the invitations extended to all the
players of note in this section was
the information that all contest
ants would be obliged to furnish
their own food and lodging during
the course of the tournament.
1t cost the club $1,000 to provide
food and shelter for % big time
racqueteers last year and the trea-
surer decided such an expenditure
was impossible this year Besides,
he probably figured that as tennis
is an amateur game the players
played purely for the love of the
sport and the glory that goes with
winning.
Well, the treasurer got one eluva
surprise. When the tournament OPP
ened yesterday only one named
player - Gregory Mangin - was
there. The rest of the top-notch-
ers couldn't make it. They were
sorry, but they had other engage
ments. AS a result the field is the
sorriest in the history of the event
and the customers are staying away
in large and round numbers.
Personally, we believe the play
ers took the proper stand. In prin-
cipTe, genuine amateurism is a love-
ly thing. But we haven't heard OF
anybody finding it palatable or sus-
tanning as a food.
Besides, why shouldn't a club pro-
vide board and lodging for the men
that make their ventures a sue
cess? Why should player be call
ed on to spend his own money to
make some for somebody else? Such
practice would lead to the anna
teur field being restricted TO men
and women of means.
AS we said earlier Gregory Man
gin was the one named player who
accepted Montclair's invitation. This
was not surprising, for Mangin
comes close to being the best ex-
ample of amateurism in this coun-
try That is, if sport for sports sake
is the definition of amateurism.
The New Jersey man loves to play
SO much that he'd probably pay
his own way to Siberia for the clay
court championship of that coun-
try. To him the thrill of competi-
ton is the thing.
