Spurts to 2-Length Win in

LONDON. April 2.-In water fit
only for submarines, Oxford's gigan-
tic crew rowed to 2-length victory
over Cambridge in their ninetieth an
nual boat race before half million
spectators today.
Rowing in the teeth Of westerly
wind with its shell half full of water
Oxford came from behind in the third
mile. STAYED off the Light Blues coun-
ter-challenge and then pulled away
to decisive triumph in the last
quarter mile. Two Americans, Thomas
Harrison Hunter of Cambridge, Mass,
and Harvard, the coxswain, and Cor
don Keppel of Montrose. N. Y, the
No 6, were members of the beaten
crew.
1t was the first time since 1918 that
Oxford had won two races in a row
and the Dark Blues third victory since
that time. oxford, whose 1887 tri-
umph interrupted string of l3
straight Cambridge victories, now has
won 42 races in the long series that
began in 1929. Cambridge has won
Al and one, in 1877 was a dead heat.
Oxford Wins in Last Quarter.
There were three distinct phases
to the race. The first came at the
start where oxford, averaging lsO
pounds to the man, rode out the
waves, grabbed a quarter-length lead
in the first SO yards and boosted it
by another half length in the first
l34 miles.
The second phase came after the
2-mile mark when the crews swung
around horseshoe bend full into
the wind. Here Cambridge's luck in
winning the toss and gaining the
surrey, and more protected. side of
the Thames, began to tell The Light
Blues were on the inside where the
water was smoother and the lane
shorter. They drew level at "a miles
and then nosed ahead.
Oxford's victorious squirt from here
to the finish line marked the third
and concluding phase. The Dark
Blues slowly caught up and then went
to the front at PA miles. No matter
how Cambridge increased its beat. the
powerful Oxonians met it and boosted
its advantage.
Last Race for U. S. Pair.
Oxford's victory was a tough break
for the two Americans, Hunter and
Keppei, who appeared in the Cam
bridge shell for the last time. In
a few months Hunter will return
to Harvard to complete his studies
while Keppel will finish at Columbia.
Roommates at Cambridge, both are
studying medicine.
The friendship Of these two was
the talk of the race. Keppel, built
like a football tackle, constantly is
with the smiling Hunter, whose legs
are paralyzed.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, April
2.-David Bernstein Of Catholic Uni
versity won the national 115-pound
collegiate boxing crown tonight with
a technical knockout over Sewell
Whitney Of Loyola of the South.
Whitney a southpaw, outpunched
Bernstein for two rounds. In the
third the Washington boxer caught his
Loyola opponent with a glancing blow
which opened a cut over the right
eye. Referee Allie Wolff Of Cornell
stopped the fight and gave the de-
cision to Bernstein.

Ben Alperstein of Maryland. who
won the 135-pound national title in
the tourney at San Diego last year,
took close decision over Clemson's
John Murray in the 125-pound divi-
sion.
1t was a contest between fighter"
and boxer" with Alperstein's scienti-
fic ringmanship giving him an edge
over the hard-punching Palmetto
State entry. Alperstein had Murray
missing frequently.
Murray took the second round when
he found the range with his right to
send the Marylander against the ropes,
but the other two were Alperstein's.
Katalinas Outpointed.
Ashby Dickerson Of West Virginia
won the judges verdict over Leo Kata-
linas, Catholic University's 2O0-pound
heavyweight.
The smiling Dickerson, who turned
in an upset in the semi finals by best
ing 6-foot 8-inch Paul Mcdonald of
Loyola, tonight displayed a two-fisted
attack which gave MIN the second and
third rounds after a slow first.
He landed a sharp right to Kata-
linas' jaw as the Catholic University
entry started a punch at the start of
the second and followed up his ad-
vantage with furry of short rights
and lefts which left the big Washing

Terrapin Stickmen Bow, 40,
To Mt. Washington as Former
AU-American C0alie Sparkles

A former all-America college goalie,
now playing for Mount Washington,
wrought Maryland's first lacrosse de-
feat of the season yesterday as the
Terps bowed, Ga, to their Baltimore
rivals at College Park
Had it not been for that player,
Fred Stude by name. Maryland in all
likelihood would have avenged one Of
its two defeats of the 1887 campaign,
for the erstwhile John Hopkins star
prevented nearly a dozen Maryland
scores by brilliant saves. BY actual
count, he blocked eight shots in the
first half which would have passed the
average goalie.
As it was, the young College Park
ers put up whale Of scrap, battling
their more experienced foes-most
Of them ex-college players-on even
terms through the game and being
found in the Mounts territory far
more than the visitors were in theirs.
Inexperience on the part of Mary
lands goalie. Haskin Deeley, paved
the way for two of the visitors four
scores in the first half, but after being
replaced shortly before the intermis-
sion period, he returned in the second
half and acquitted himself nobly.
True, he allowed two scores-one in
each of the last two quarters-but he
saved twice as many and more than
atoned for his first-half failings.
Excitement Warns Spectators.
All in all, it was an evenly-con-
tested game, exciting enough in spots
to warm the 500 chilled spectators
who watched through an intermittent
drizzle. More sustained aggressreness
on the part of the eventual losers
might have turned the tide of battle
for it was noticeable that they Stacked
up perceptibly after promising rallies.
Bob Nelson, made eligible just prior
to the game, led Maryland's several
offensive gestures along with Jim
Meade, the football star, and Mullitz,
but Rip Hewitt found time to score
two goals to share individual honors
with that trio.
The game wasn't three minutes old
when Stieber sneaked around from
behind Maryland's goal to toss one
back-handed into the net, but Meade
tied the score four minutes later after
his teammates twice had been frus-
trated by STUDIES saves. Just before
the quarter ended. Vandenberg passed
Ole in directly from in front to give
the Mounts lead which they never
lost.
Two goals in quick succession by
Stieber and Turnbull gave the Wis
itors a Al lead, but just as it seemed
the visitors might turn the game into
rout. the Old Liners staged coun-
ter-rally which threatened to tie the
score. Nelson passed the busy Stude
with a brilliant shot and Hewitt then
came through with the prettiest goal
OF the day-a side shot from Is yards
out. The half-time whistle put halt
to the drive.
Behind, 3-4, as the third quarter
opened, Maryland took heart after
Deeley saved goal and once again
challenged the Mounts lead. Nelson
started it by intercepting a pass deep
in his own territory and passed to

COMPETING WITH CHEOPS

Fort Peck dam on the Missouri river in Montana
is generally conceded to be the largest construc-
ton project ever undertaken by man--larger even
than the great pyramid of the Egyptian pharoah,
Cheops. The $2O0,OQO,OO0 of public funds to be
spent on it will ultimately result in vast pile OF
dirt, ranging as high as ZAP feet over the river
bed and extending across several miles of Montana
prairie land. Behind this monumental upheaval
will be created the Largest duck pond in the
world"
Laboring taxpayers are told by liberal poll
ticians that Fort Peck dam is justified in the
name of humanity They paint glowing picture
but here is what the United States army engineer
corps has to say of Fort Peck:
In regard to electric power, Major General Mark
ham, chief of the engineers, recommended that the
power plants be not installed for the practical rea-
son that therr is no market for the power Fort
Peck dam is located in sparsely settled region,
having an average population Of only 2.7 persons
per square mile. Stock raising and dry farming
the principal occupations. The report likewise
pointed out that the dam will be of no material
benefit as far as flood control is concerned. And,
finally, in regard to improved navigation: line
Missouri river never ca. and never will be great
originator of traffic. There no mines, no fac
tories, no other great sources of originating ualc
on the river many years perhaps decades, must
elapse before any considerable traffic will develop
if it ever does.' ....
Stripped of verbal persiflage, Fort Peck dam be-
comes nothing but monument to political VANITY
monument that will make the taxpayers sweat,
and whose chief claim to fame is that 1t is bigger
than Cheops' pyramd.-Public Service Magazine
