for the heavy track. The victory pro-
vided Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt with
his outstanding Rockingham triumph,
despite the fact that this string had
accounted for 6 Of the IL previous
stake events decided on this oval in
the past q days.
Discovery Shows Life.
NANDERBILT'S 4-year-old Discov-
cry, a great disappointment this

he displayed a few flashes of the
form he showed last year. wh6u he
was Cavalcade's keenest rival. while
finishing third, head behind Dark
Hope and two and half lengths in
front OF the Belair Studs Vicar
Since the Vanderbilt entry finished
first and third, it's hackers who picked
it to show received a rare bargain, a
$3.50 return for 50 pari-mutuel tick
cts. The entry's win prize was only
s4.4o, and IT paid but 70 cents for
place
While gaining the winners $3.50
share of the purse, Identify boosted

M|DD|ES PRESENT
A SMOOTH OUTFIT
Penn, Washington, Cornell
Also Come In for Much
Consideration.

BY the Associated Press.
HOUGHKEEPSIE, N Y. June 49,
- The Is crews preparing here
for the thirty-seventh inter
collegiate regatta Tuesday gen.
orally concluded their workouts today.
Favorites in the varsity, Junior
varsity and freshmen races were diff
cult to pick as the coaches indicated
they would spend the rest Of time
until the race starts polishing up the
rough spots in the shells.
Argument was rife as to the COM
parative prowess of the boats, but
California, despite its defeat by WASH
1ngton on the Coast, appeared to have
a microscopic edge on the field in
the varsity race. However. observers
were of the opinion that II the Golden
Bears succeeded in winning their third
straight championship, it would be
only after the SharpeSt kind of COM
petition.
Coach KY Ebright has the second
heaviest entry in the final race and
in Gene Berkenkamp one of the most
powerful strokes on the river.
Plenty Of COntenders.
Navy. with one Of the strongest
crews in years, was expected to give
California a rub while undefeated
Pennsylvania, Washington's huskies
and Cornell, the latter with the heavi-
est crew in the race, had their hackers.
Navy. which was the last to encamp
on the river, rounded into shape
quickly under Coach Charles (Buck)
Walsh. They are as smooth as any
boatload on the river but some be-
lieved they lacked the power of Cali
fornia. The crew will weigh in at
about a 172-pound average, approx
mately the same as California.
Al Ulbrickson of Washington had a
difficult time choosing between his
varsity and his junior varsity for the
honor of entering the 4-mile pull, but
finally chose the former. The boat
is heterogeneous in height and weight,
hut has a hard-pulling man in every
seat.
The problem of Pennsylvania S
sprint champions seemed to be the
generation of stamina needed for 4
miles. Rusty Callow's crew. paced
by Lloyd Saxton, one of the best
strokes Callow says he ever developed,
is as steady as a high-powered auto
mobile. The coach says his varsity
must trust TO superior knack of
spacing to Offset the advantage in
weight held by rival camps. He ex-
pected his crew to take the water
averaging less than 40
Cornell Shows Speed.
CORNELL and Syracuse were quoted
on a par basis, with the edge
going to the former. This morning
Cornell whipped down the river in
the unofficial time of 1902
Jim Ten Eyck has been putting his
Syracuse oarsmen through two long
rows day and some were of the
opinion that the oldster has sur

the course for the last time today
with Coach Hugh Glendon expressing
his satisfaction at its showing.

A vigorous campaign to arouse civic
pride in Washingtons parks will be
launched soon by C. Marshall Finnan,
superintendent of the National Capt.
tai Parks. who has 81, 900 900 to spend
IN beautifying and improving the Dis
trict's park system.
Mr.. Finnan announced yesterday his
Office plans an intensive educational
program to inform citizens how they
can best aid in preserving the natural
beauties of the parks and prevent their
misuse and despoilation.
Cooperation of citizens associa-
tions, the Board of Education, teach
ers, school children and all public
spirited organizations will be sought
by Mr.. Finnan to make his park drive
a success.
The park chief will ask Louis r.
Barrett, the newly-appointed co-ordi-
nator of recreation in the District, to
attend various citizens association
meetings, which will be getting under
way shortly. Likewise, he proposes to
have H. r. Gregg, park naturalist,
who is coming here from Hot Springs,
Ark. take an active interest in this
campaign of education.
Making Washington park con-
scious" is Mr.. Finnan's objective, so
that the citizens will enjoy the out
Of door areas to the full, but at
the same time halt any abuse or mis-
use of the parks and what they
contain. Rather than havef fnalice-
men arresting people, Mrs. Fnfnan
would prefer to have the citizens
cooperate Of their own accord with
the park officials in making WASH

ington one of the best and most
beautiful cities in The world.
But this goal will never be at
tanned, he says, as long as vandals
can 60 about their work of destruction
without at least a call down" by
public spirited citizens. Mr.. Ffnnan
says that the citizens should regard
the parks as their own property and
take as lively an interest in the
preservation and betterment of this
property as if they owned it indi-
vidually.
As it is, it Is costing the taxpayers
of Washington and the Nation thou
sands of dollars annually to repair
damage done either thoughtlessly or
through malice. said Mr.. Finnan. If
the public is willing to cooperate, this
money can better be expended in i'm
proving the park system and making
the out-of-door recreational areas
more inviting to the public and more
enjoyable for their use.
With the assistance Of the citizens
associations, the school children and
people with the welfare of the city
at heart generally, Mr.. Finnan be-
lieves that marked improvement can
be attained. With this in mind, he
will embark shortly. with his asso-
ciates, on a.good will campaign. He
says that he Is sanguine about achiev-
ing concrete, beneficial results.
TT is certainly rather useless for
the Government to be spending ST.
000, 1000 for the improvement of the
National Capital park system and then
having to spend money on the other
end in repairing preventable damage"

bile, at the head of a caravan of cars

travelling at moderate rate and there
was not the slightest danger involved.
Mr.. Roosevelt chatted with mem

the tire, when his attention was drawn
to an aged man standing on the bank
of the roadside, waving and smiling.
The President waved in response.
This recognition prompted the old

0NE-MAN CAR PLAN
is GIVEN BACKING
Quiz by Utilities Body Draws
Many Arguments in Support
of Program.

Arguments favoring one-man street
car operation are flooding into the
Public Utilities Commission in re-
sponse to a QUESTIONABLE sent out to
a long list of cities to gain background
for a decision on a proposed expan-
sion Of one-man operation here, it was
disclosed yesterday.
The Capital Transit Co. recently
asked permission to convert all Of its
20 new street cars to one-man serv-
ice. A public hearing will be held on
the petition, but the date has not been
set.
Street car company executives who
have answered the query are unan-
imous in their Endorsement of the
plan. Replies from IS cities have been
received to date. Among them are
several spokeSmen for city or State
utilities commissions.
Strong protests against expansion of
the present number of one-man cars
here already have been filed with the
commission. Peoples Counsel William
A. Roberts and a number of leaders
of civic groups have voiced opposi-
ton.
In proposing the change for the 20
new street cars, President John II.
Hanna of the Capital Transit Co. ar
gued it was necessary as an economy
measure due to the 100000 boost In
wages OF the company employees.
