Harlow Technique Should Show At Harvard Soon

Boston, March 24-(UP)-Letting the sports chips fall where they may:
 This is the day that Harvard be- gins one of the most important phases of its football resurrection. Y. Some 65 young Crimson stalwarts will be herded together by Coach Dick Harlow, the birds egg fancier, for the opening spring practice ses-
 Harvard football has been in the doghouse for the past five years, but showed definite signs of emerg- ing from the wilderness during the last half of the 1886 campaign. :. on the basis of games won and lost, the Cambridge gridiron forces did no better. than in the two years Harlow has been at the helm than in the previous three years. .. Now that the Harlow system has been entrenched, however, experts figure that the pay-off is at hand the middle of the line will be wrecked by graduation, but capable replacements are available. The rest of the frontier and the back field that started against Yale will be back. above all, those whc will return have known nothing but Harlow football in their varsity careers. and in that, they have been thoroughly schooled during the past two years.
 Harlow now is in a position tc branch out and teach his boys some of the fancy stuff that will mean the difference between defeat anc victory. Hence the importance ol the spring training session that is al hand.

OXFORD CREW
 WON TODAY FOR
 SWEET VICTORY
Winners Some From Be. hind for First Win in
 l3 Years
By H. L. PERCY

l
 United Press Stan Correspondent)
 London, March 24.--(UP)--An Ox- ford crew, rowing to retrieve a 13- year series of defeats, pulled from behind today to win from Cam bridge, the 89th of their historic boat races on the Thames.
 Behind at the start and at two points on the winding 4 l-2 mile course, the heavier Oxford men pulled their dark blue shell ahead in the last 1 leg miles to win by three lengths.
 Oxford was admittedly the better of two bad crews, handicapped in their training by flood waters, and the time was slow-22 minutes 39 seconds compared to the record set by Cambridge in 1884 of IS nlin- utes three seconds. Cambridge fought gallantly in response to the bass roars of its coxswain, Thomas Harrison Hunter, Harvard '35, of Cambridge, Mass, and Chicago.
 It was an American, W. F. (Pussy) Mellen, of Cornell, who stroked Oxford to it's last victory in 1923. Today the Oxford stroke was A. B. Hodgson.
 Cambridge started with the ad- vantage of the tniversity's prestige in its years of wins over the dark blue. But if the crowd that lined the banks of the narrow, snaky river along the "S" shaped course and crowded windows and roofs of the brewerieS and factories on the north bank bet on Cambridge, 1t cheered for Oxford.
 Cambridge won the toss and chose the surrey side, on the south, for the start at Putney Bridge, in bright sunshine that cleared away 8 show cry mist. There was a brisk breeze but the water at the start was calm.
 Cambridge pulled almost level at Hammersmith Bridge, not quite to the two mile mark. Both shells were rowing strongly.
 At Dhiswick Steps, the half way mark, Oxford was leading by three or four feet and the roars of the crowd mounted to frenzy. But at Dukes Meadows, Cambridge was ahead again, slightly, and again the crowd thought that the usual finish was ahead.
 Barnes Bridge, only 8 mile from the finish, and Oxford was in the lead again, by a length. They were stroking 36 to the minute in both shells, and Oxford's superior weight was telling.
 Cambridge got ragged, wearing out, and increased its stroke. But Oxford pulled ahead steadily, in- creasing it's lead as the boat passed the White Hart Inn, the famous brewery, the Ship Inn and the fin- ish buoy by Chiswick bridge.
 Today's boat race was featured not only by the Oxford victory but by the first false start in the l08 years since the crews rowed the first of their 89 races.
 Just as H. R. N. Ricket, Cam bridge, '32, the umpire, shouted "off," an Oxford crewman threw up his hand in signal that he was not ready. The crews were just swing ing forward for the first stroke when men at the stake boat grabbed the shells.

 Both of last nights games on Canadian ice were near riots Hitfi fist fights and bottle throwing by fans. Tn the series 'B" game be- tween the Maroons and Boston Dit Clapper put himself in line for a three-ganne suspension by hitting Referee Clarence Campbell. He drew a major penalty and will be reported to League President Frank Calder today. The Bruins went into the third period trailing by two goals, scored by Voss and North court earlier, and left their own net virtually intended in an attempt to tally. Ray 0etliffe scored at 6:34 but Herbie Cain nullified it with another Maroon counter. Cain had returned to the ice after being knocked unconscious in the second period when struck by a bottle hurled by g fan. Oracle scored the final tally for the Maroons.
 The 70" playoh game ended in a free for ali fight with watson end Coulter of the Rangers and Con- acfer and Davidson of the Leafs drawing major penalties.
 Patrick, Murdock and Shibicky had scored for New York before trouble broke out near the end of the final period. Dillon of the Rangers tangled with Davidson and players of both teams joined. Sticks were abandoned as players swung at each other with their heavily gloved fists, ..s ,s@... .
 No games were scheduled in "Bs and 70" tonight as the teams jour- neyed to Boston and New York to complete the series. Winners of these competitions meet in another two out of three game series to determine the flnalist opponent for the "A" victor.

Football Strike
 In Bay State

Everett, Mass, March 24.-- tUP)--Some 25 members of Everett's unbeaten 1886 high school football team were on strike today in protest over resignation of Captain Elect Harold Everett, all-scholastic center.
 The players refused to put on uniforms yesterday for spring practice.
 Cause of young Everett's resignation was not revealed. One version was that he had an altercation with a teacher and that he resigned under pressure.
 Meanwhile, it was understood that if recalcitrant candidates did not report within the next three days, they would not be permitted to represent the school in football next fall.
