morized. Like in any other sport
which schools participate, they
have their own colors in shell
racing, usually the colors of the
school. These various combina-
tions of colors are painted on the
oars or sweeps. The system of
rowing makes it possible for all
eight sweeps to flash at once.
Therefore, if one can see the
blades of the oars, it is easy to
tell the different schools. An
other is in their uniforms which
are made up of shorts, T-shirts
and sometimes hats; depending
on the school. They, too, are in
the school colors. Navy for ex-
ample wears a gold shirt with
diagonal blue stripe and white
caps, Boston, bright red; Cali
fornia, dark blue, etc.
The Regatta, this year, was de-
layed considerably, possibly be-
cause of the river, but to the
spectators the river did not ap-
pear as bad as it had been made
to be. Navy had bad luck this
year in the breaking and sinking
of two of their shells and in
breaking the rudder of the third.
Because of the swiftness of the
river, it was hard for the crews
to make contact with their stake
boats, and this also was a delay
ing factor.
The seat that ! occupied were
on the West Virginia side of the
river on the finish line and were
certainly choice seats. The spec
tators directly across from our
side must have been very un-
comfortable as they were in the
sun all afternoon. The West Vir-
ginia side was mostly in the
shade and very cool. Probably
the most outstanding incident of
the whole Regatta was the fact
that the great multitudes of
spectators who lined the banks
of the Ohio did not leave in
spite of the fact that most of
them were there in the hot sun
unable to move to any great ex-
tent, from 200 until at least
after six o'clock. This was the
most patient crowd that | have
ever witnessed and proves bey-
ond all doubt that shell racing,
although not too popular in this
section of the country, is a great
sport and is enjoyed by a great
number of people.

This article appeared in the
Cleveland Press, Monday June IL,
in the column, Sights and Sounds
by Milt Widder.
The 36-piece Caldwell, O. band,
CHATS near Marietta) has been
signed to play when the Browns
appear in Akrons Rubber Bowl
late this summer. Experts say
it's the snappiest band in the
country.
Although the chances are quite
small of Mr.. Widder reading
this article, would like to thank
him in behalf of the Caldwell
band for his compliment. How
ever, it is not the Browns that
we understood were playing. 1t
was thought to be Welter
Weight football game, and as far
as we know, the information has
not been changed.
Although the Regatta was held
last Saturday, l would like to
talk about some of the things
saw in the practice sessions and
the Regatta itself. No matter
how much one reads in a paper
or magazine, they cannot enjoy
shell races unless they actually
have seen them. Possibly, you
could enjoy it, but certainly not
to the greatest extent.
First, / would like to establish
the fact that l am by no means
an expert on shell racing. What
| do know has been acquired in
the last few days that l have at
tended the practice sessions and
the Regatta. BY just being there
and listening, | have picked up
from the crews and visitors who
are we'll informed on the sub
ject, some very startling facts.
For instance, all of the shells
that are made in the United
States are built by one man out
in Washington. These shells are
some so feet long, weight about
$50 pounds and at their widest
point are "a inches. Most stand
ard races are eight-man shells,
plus the coxswin and about the
average weight of the occupants
is 1900 pounds, so when all of
this is put into the water, it ap-
pears that the shell is practically
sunk.
Perhaps you would wonder
how the shells are distinguished
once they are in the water. But
it is easy once the colors are me-

Mr.. Hedrick quoted Mr.. Brown
as saying he fired a 12-gauge shot

Baltimore Transit Workers

By the Associated Prass

BALTIMORE, Jan. 13.-Oper-
ators of the city's trolleys and
buses were voting today on
whether or not they will strike
to press their demand for higher

AS the strike vote began last
night, Gov. McKeldin and Mayor
.D'AleSandro met to explore ways

tatlon system operating.
The Governor and Mayor said
in a statement they were deeply
concerned over "the threatened
disruption to the community s
business, economic and social life
that would result from a strike.
AT this time any interruption to
the quickened program would be
particularly unfortunate.
The union is seeking a 20 to
IS cents an hour raise. When
the Baltimore Transit Co. refused
to make any counteroffer, the
union suggested arbitration. But
the BIC said it is a matter for
collective bargaining. not arbi-
tration.

the Executive Committee of the
ALL operators union plans to
meet Tuesday to set a date for
the walkout.
