IVY LEAGUE CREW
MEET IS PLANNED
Influential Band in Seven
Eastern Universities
Favors Regatta.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

n EW YORK, June IA man,
M moth heptagonal regatta on
v Lake Quinsigamond, at Wor-
cester, Mass, involving crews
OF the so-called Ivy League, may be
the next important development In
intercollegiate rowing.
Proposal for such a race among
crews Of Yale, Harvard. Princeton,
Cornell, Pennsylvania, Columbia and
Dartmouth comes from an influential
source in this group OF ancient East
ern universities, and reaction from
the various alumni Is decidedly IA
Vorable.
Recent accretions to the list Of
aquatic colleges, as Manhattan, Rut-
gers, Williams, and, in the Middle
West, Marietta, Is accepted generally
as a strong indication OF the return
OF wide interest in sweep swinging,
and the proposer of the seven boat af-
fair on Quinsigamond. launching his
idea In Big Three graduate publi-
cation, thus feels the time is ripe
for such meeting.

Grant a Notable Mite,

THEN there's Bitsy Grant in ten
mis-. The Atlanta atom is lit
tie larger than the racquet he swings.
But he has beaten almost every star
in tennis at one time or another,
and is now in the middle of a Davis
Cup scrap.
Bitsy is around feet l or 2 in
height. He weighs from lis to. 1ls
pounds. But hitting a tennis ball
in his general direction is like hit
ting one against stone wall. It
keeps on bounding back. He can
cover more ground than a tennis
playing centipede.
When Cyril Walker led Bob Jones,
Walter Hagen, Gene Sarazen and
others at Oakland Hills, where the
next open will be played, Cyril weighed
no pounds. He had run into some
form of stomach trouble and in one
big tournament, where he finished
second, he dropped down to l06
pounds.
Yet he was hitting the ball about
as far as any of the bigger men who
could spot him so or 70 pounds
Walker had fine, fast hand action and
perfect timing. That's what brought
him those $50 and 260 yard drives.

Bill Johnston Weighed 1l6.

THEN there was little Bill Johnston,
the California tennis star. Just
before the final match of Champion
ship at Forest Hills, asked Little Bill
what he weighed at that time. He re-
piled, "ll6 pounds" And yet his
forehand had just blasted big Gerald
Patterson of Australia off the court.
Little Bill crowded Big Bill Tilden
TO the limit year after year, but he
faced too heavy handicap on the
physical side Even with this handi-
cap, he wrecked Big Bill in the cham
pionship of 1919, before the famous
pair left for Australia to bring back
the Davis Cup.
Frank Hinkey, Yale's four-time all

ANNA HAHN FACES
TRIAL FOR MURDER
Two Indictments Name Her
as Killer of Welt to-Do EI.
derIy German Friends.
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, October 9.-Smiling
and confident, Mrs. Anna Marie Hahn,
81. German-born blond, prepared
today for trial on a murder charge
and, in the face of almost certain
demand that she die In the electric
chair, declared II haven't a worry
on my mind"
Starting Monday before Judge
Charles S. Bell, the trial is expected
to occupy three weeks or more.
The comely wife of Philip Hahn,
commercial telegrapher. Is charged
in two indictments with the poison
Staying Of George Gsellman, 81, and
Jacob Wagner, 78, but will be tried
only on the latter count.
Prosecutor Dudley Miller Outcalt
has declined to say what penalty he
will demand, although Assistant Pros
ecutor Gordon Scherer announced pre-
viously the State would TASK for
the chair"
Press facilities will provide for
two dozen writers. No telegraph in
struments are to be allowed in the
court room.
Investigation into what Prosecutor
Outcalt termed the biggest mass
murder in the country" began with
the death of Wagner on June 3.
Then authorities at Denver and Colo
rado Springs, Colo, requested investi-
CATION into the death of George Oben-
doerfer, 81, moderately wealthy Gin
cinnati cobbler. Obendoerfer was ac-
companied into the West by Mrs.
Hahn. He died August l in a Colo
RADIO Springs hospital.
Both men had become violently
ill while in her company or shortly
thereafter. Tests indicated presence
of poison In their visceras and i'll
vital organs of Gsellman, who was
found dead in bed July 6.
Mrs. Hahn's husband produced a
half-emptied bottle of purgative
oil which medical sources agreed
was fatal in dosages of six to 70
drops. He had taken it from his
wife during a domestic quarrel, he
said
Hahn told Outcalt he was aware
Of his wife's friendship with numer-
GUS elderly Germans. but denied
knowledge OF financial transactions
by which Outcalt contends she bene-
fitted from $4,000 to $4,000.
She was residing in a $4,000 home
bequeathed to her by Ernst Kohler
another friend, who died in 1888.
