Washington Crew
 Poughkeepsie Choice For June Regatta
(By United Press)


 The University of Washington varsity crew was well established to- day as the favorite to win the Poughkeepjsie regatta on the Hud- son River, June 25.
 The smooth-stroking Huskies de- feated the University of California by three and two-third lengths Sat- urday in the fastest race in the his- tory of the Pacific Coast regattaS
 Washington,s time was 14 minutes and 28 seconds, 18.3 seconds better than the record of 14:46.3 set about half an hour before by the Wash ington Junior Varsity in their length and an eighth victory. California's losing varsity crew covered the three mile course in l4:39, the regatta's second best time.
 The Jayvees' time of l4:48.3 was 2 1-I0 seconds faster than the former mark of 14:48.4 set by the California Varsity in 1899. Califor. mia won the freshman race by three quarters of a length.
 Navy Defeated
 Pricneton's Varsity, which opened with a victory over Rutgers two weeks ago helped Navy open its sea- son and won from the Middies by three-quarters of @ length 1 n9:36 over the mile and three- quarter course on the Severen river Prince- ton again was forced to last-ditch drive and overcame a short Navy lead in the last half mile. The Navy Junior Varsity finished three lengths In front of Pricneton in 9:59. Columbia put on spirited drive in the last eighth of mile to row home one-third of a length ahead of Rutgers on the Harlem river in 6:53 4-5 for the mile and @ half course. Rutgers was timed in 6:54 3-5. The Rutgers crew led most of the way and had @ quarter of a length advantage when Columbia spurted.

Don't Lift Club Too Quickly In The Backswing: Take It Straight Back, Then Up-Craig Wood
Golfers Grip
 Should Be Firm, But Not Tight
Wood ShOts-Second of six ln- formative and instructive articles. E. A21 1@P
Winner of Masters Tournament and Golf's Foremost Teacher

New York, April 2l-Most golfers ruin shots by gripping the club too tightly. The muscles in their fore- arms stand out like Jumps and this prevents hand or wrist action.
 Don't go to the top of the swing in quick turn of club and body. Take the club straight back and then up.
 As you do this, the left knee bends toward the right. Shoulders and the upper part of the body turn easily in pivot.
 Failure to pivot causes the body to sway to the right, throwing all the weight on the right foot.
 Don't turn body and club around too far in the backswing.
 This fault often can be traced to lifting the club too quickly in the backswing. This allows too much weight to be kept on the left foot.
 The result is that the weight Is shifted to the right foot in the downswing. In that case, the shot well, you may have done this frequently. If so, you can describe the resultant shot better than I. RUNYAN HAS OWN SWING; METZ FINE HAND HITTER
 Not 0 few golfers have to adapt their swing to their build.
 This was true in the case of Paul Runyan, who was my first good as- sistant at the Forest Hills Field Club, Bloomfield. N. J.
 Runyans light stature makes him do things in his swing that some professionals might term un- orthodox, yet his game was suffi- cient to win many big tourna- ments.
 Runyan twice bagged the P. c. A. Championship. He defeated me at the 38th hole in Buffalo in 1884 and lambAsted powerful Samuel Jackson Snead, 8 and 2, at Shaw nee -on Delaware four years later.
 Dick Metz was a pretty good golfer when he became my assist ant at the Hollywood Golf Club, Deal, N. J., in '32. Metz, 6 fine hand hitter, has an excellent grip. He has long, full swing and a lot more hand or wrist action than ever hope to possess.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-04-21

Metz and myself employ the Warden overlapping, the standard grip used by more golfers than any other.
 An essential of the good grip Is to have at least three knuckles of the left hand showing.
 Part of the leather of the club should be in the palm of the left hand. The right hand grips the club with the fingers. The little finger of the right hand ovcrlaps the index finger of the left.
 The grip should be firm, but, I repeat, not too tight. GHEZZI SWITCHES TO
 QUARTER CLOSED FACE
 Vic Gehzzl of Deal credits me with improving his game.

DISPOSE AT 6-1, CURIOUS COIN 2O-1 FOR DERBY
Races Saturday Cause Change; Our Boots, ROb.'

BY JACK GUENTHER 'nited Press Stan COrrespOndent)

NOmAV1U kEUBS 6V0h NWhhCohsOkssAShAO
 New York, April 2l - ((UP) = The nations future book operators, who don't deal in either sentiment or lunches, disclosed rather pointed, " today that Our Boots is the horse to beat in the Kentucky Derby and that betting on him to finish in the money is just about the safest in. vestment in racing.
 Revamping his line after the odd. est week -end of the spring, J. J carroll of St. Louis moved the Ohio. owned colt back into his original position as favorite for the run oi the roses by slashing his win price to S.l and dropping his odds to place and show down to 6-6 and Ia,
 Carroll's action comes as no sur. prise. Held at 4.l when the booka opened a month ago, Our Boots rose to S-i when his handlers said he had Jagged in training and wouldn't be rushed. He came down again on the strength of steady workouts and the newest drop was based on his excellent spring debut at Keeneland Saturday.
 While Our Boots dropped, King Ranch's Dispose - the horse who temporarily replaced him as the favorite-moved back up. A sore dis- appointment when he ran last to three ineligibles at Jamaica Satur- day, Dispose went from Al to 6-1 and the only reason he didn't go higher was that his last performs aylce was 50 bad the commissioners didn't beleive 1t.
 Watch King Cole
 Bracketed behind our boots are 0. s. Towards Porter's Cap, who won the $i5 900 Chesapeake over the week-end; Calumet Farms Whirl- away and ogden Phipps' King Cole The latter two turned in fine work. outs in their last attempts and arc regarded as certain starters. The price of the trio is Al, 8-5 and 4-5-- and plenty of money is rolling in, Until today their odds had ranged as high as 8-l.
 The biggest drop in the price oi any candidate was the tumble of J. r. Byers' Robert Morris. He fell from 20-l to l0-i. Al and 2-l after winning the $l0,000 Excelsior handi- cap from older horses at Jamaica, Simultaneously, the biggest boost was the rise from 6-1 to 20-l in the price of Coldstream Stables Curious Coin, who failed along with Dispose.

 TORRINGTON IN TENTH
Special to the Desnocrat)

Naugatuck, April 2i-Though a G. 5 leader in the sixth inning, Tor rington high baseball players made a few niscues which eventually cost them the first game on Naugys slate Saturday at Recreation field, when Naugatuck tied the score in the ninth and won out in the tentsi inning, 2 to 6. Both teams used two pitchers apiece while hitting was plentiful the game was tight all the way as the hits were fairly well divided. Naugy wound up with 13 hits. including Schiaroli's home run in the third as Torrington Stickers got Il bingles, Longobuco getting a double and pair of singles for Torrington. Bayliss started for Naugatuck and was relieved by Dur cite in the seventh, while O'Cain, Torrington starter, gave way to Brainz in the ninth.

Today's Sport Parade
BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Editor)

Lawn Tennis Association. Helen Wills eyeshade, Big Bill Tilden's bursts of temperament, Alice Mar. ble's jockey cap, Prank Kovac's an- tics and Bobby Riggs cock walk all have helped draw people to Forest Hills when those stars were anna. teurs, but the stars were strictly on their own. Nobody thought to give them proper setting for their acts.
 Professional tennis does better, as witness teh debut of Miss Marble and Mary Hardwick Miss Hardwick stood at attention in a white circle of light while @ band played God Save The King" and a giant Union Jack futtered down from the ceiling of Madison Square Garden. then Miss Marble stepped into the spot light, the band played the Star Spangled Banner" and an American flag broke out from above. Little things like that don't improve the brand of tennis, but they give the customers Q better run for their $3.30.
 The plan at Forest Kills is to in- vite eight of the leading male pro- fessionals and stage Q round robin competition. There will be two dou- bles and two singles matches on each of three days. Tilden, Don Budge and Fred Perry already have been invited and the remainder of tn fild will b chosn from tn lading professionals.
 This is not the first time that the professionals have set foot on the sacred soil of Forts Hills, but 1t is the first time that the nations lead- ing tennis club has underwritten the expenses of a professional tour- nament with the idea of taking the profit, if any. The three days of action from June 6 to 8 will produce the finest tennis you can find in the world today.
 Slow Progress
 Persons who promote sports are strangely slow in doing things that make the competition more interest ing to the spectators. It took years to convince the baseball magnates that 1t would be good idea to put numbers on the players shirts so the crowd could idetify new faces. Only in the last few years have football teams b'cssomed out in bright, colorful unirorms. Golf gall leries are beginning to get a break after decades of being pushed around by marshals and police. So I have little hope that the idea I'm about to toss out will be adopt ed soon. Nevertheless, it should be a terrific drawing card for tennis. Any extended discussion of the game in- variably gets around to the question of how woman player such as Miss Marble would fare against top- flight male player. Some experts contend there are 500 men in the United States who could beat Miss Marble; others say sch would do all right against, say Tilden, who is not as agile as he used to be. So offer this to the West Side Tenis Club as an added attraction :Tilden vs Miss Marble fwor $500. winner take all.
