TO-DA Y,S SPORT PARADE

upsets the last 10 days have pro- duced.
 Number One
 Sam Parks started it off by out- shining Sarazen, Hagen. Armour, Dutra, Wood and all the other golfing red hots, to win the national open at Pittsburgh. You could have had 50 or 100 to 1 on Samuel when he walked up to the first tee, for at that time he was just nice, friendly boy with a pair of fian- nels, a bagful of shiny clubs, and lots of hope.
 James J. Braddock (this hurts me worse than it does you) next proved anything was possible by outgalloping Max Baer to take the heavyweight boxing championship. James J. was worse than an under dog-when he walked in the ring he was the dog under the dog that was under the under-dog. Then, only last Saturday, in lovlcy Princeton town, Jack Love- lock of New ealand, just 8 few days off the boat, ran the legs right off Glenn Cunningham, holder of the worlds record for the mile and supposedly the finest four-furlong runner ever to--now, now, what is that phrase ?-Oh yes, ever to put foot in spiked shoes. Lovelock was not the only one to beat him either. At the finish, Bonny Bon- thron, who did his training in an accountants office, running up to. tals, perhaps, had second place.
 one More. Upset
 So, all that Is needed to complete the dizzy daisy chain of form re- versals is for Columbia Cor Cornell or Syracuse, for that matter) to swing down the river ahead of California, Washington, Navy and Pennsylvania today. If such a thing happens the experts who have predicted California, Wash ington and Navy to run one-two- three will have ono thing in their favor--they won't have to hide. Because, for some reason or other, the start of the Poughkeepsie re- gatta is so nicely timed that 1t starts in the dusk and ends in what realists call pitch. black dark. This is very helpful to the press, for all the rowing writers have to do to learn the winner is to stick their heads above the blackberry bushes on the bank where they're perched, and holler across the river:
 (Which one of you guys won?" And the crewmen, being of q helpful spirit, always yell back in unison:
 We did. we think"
 It's a Trick
 Rowing experts are judged by their ability to translate this joint answer into the correct and win ming crew, and then, with the aid l of flashlights, matches, poison ivy, cocklebuurs and miniature ava lanches from the hills above, knock less prose on the race. Sometimes off few thousand words of death California is the crew that the it's raining, and that helps, too. old river-rats and water-dogs who infest this sprawling town on the Hudson are picking today. The R R. and w. D. always select crew because of legs and shoulders and the California boatload is as hand some a bunch of stalwarts as you'll find outside museum. They like the long haul. too, as they proved by finishing their hard training Sunday with a IS mile cruise.
 California is even money in the betting with Washington second favorite at to 2. Navy is next in line with to 1, w.-ile you could have 8 to if you like Cornell, | Syracuse or Penn. Columbia is $ to l and there were few tkaers.

In the last six years.
King Georges greeting on Christmas
day to his 500 100000 subjects in the
British Empire was delightful. His
speech over the radio to the people
of his dominions and colonies was
charming in its simplicity and touch
ing in its earnest tone. The plain
and simple beauty of his English and
his perfect diction should cause his
greeting to be preserved as an example
of the beauty Of the English language
when spoken in its purity. He said:
ITO those who are suffering or in
distress, whether in this country or
in any part of the empire, I offer
my deepest sympathy. But would
also give a Christmas message of
hope and cheer. United by the bond
of willing service, let us prove our
selves both strong to endure and
reSolute to overcome"
The help to the needy and the
Christmas charities of the King and
Queen were reported to have been
greater this year than ever before.
There was also personal touch about
all that was done. Queen Mary is
sometimes represented as being very
unbending and exacting about eti-
quette where royalty is concerned; she
has, however, way of winning the
respect and love Of her people, as is
illustrated by a little story a young
English girl wrote to a Baltimore
friend at the time of the jubilee serv-
ice in Westminster Abbey. The Queen
was riding along in the royal process
sion in the great gilded state carriage
with the King, when some one called
out from the crowd. Mary, tilt your
hat-we can't see your face" Her
majesty laughingly pushed her hat
back bit, and waved her hand.
