Eleven of the thirteen n individual conference championships won by La Rowe's pupils were taken by youngsters who had never pulled on a glove before coming under the veteran coach's wing. %

Its getting to be habit de- cared Eddie Lee of the New York A. c. as he clicked off the point that give him the amateur three cushion billiard championship for the fifth consecutive year.
 Lee had bit more difficulty winning this year than he has had on past occasions, for the finish of the regular tournament games found him tied for first place with Gene Deardorff of St. Paul. In the playoff Lee preserved his win ming streak by downing Deardorff, 50 to 35, in 6l innings.
 The New York youth seems to have a strangle hold on that championship just as he does on the national long distance swim ming title. He's held the latter crown for the last three years.
 Jean Borotra, famous French Davis cup star, also has the win ming habit" for he recently won the French indoor tennis cham pionship for the 10th time.
 Helen Jacobs made it three in a row last summer when she success fully defended her national sim gles tennis championship. At present there seems to be no one ready to interrupt her winning way.
