The golfers themselves probably are of the same opinion although they have a fatalistic way of reasoning that anything can happen in-an open tournament. But the golfers are talking on an- ~ other subject and it is a strange sub- ject for golf. They are saying that there is going to be a lot of trouble on the Winged Foot course at Mam- aroneck where the championsh}j starts on June 27. . Can't Drive Through ‘Em “There'll be hell from the crowds on that course,” Walter Hagen said @ few days ago. Hagen added: that he wasn’t annoyed by their presence around him, but that it was impossi- ble to drive through a crowd. ‘There have been about crowds in the past but the Golf As- sociation apparently is more con- cerned about the tournament this year than ever before because it has issued instructions that only profes- sional photographers from the news picture agencies will be permitted on the course with cameras. The point is that New York hasn't been close to a big championship for number of years. The course where the open is to be played this year is only about 40 minutes from Grand Central station on special trains and the territory near the course is one of the hottest beds” of golf in the country. The association is anticipat- ing that thousands instead of hun- dreds will follow the matches.

Y., June 19.—(#)— Advance calculations on the Inter- collegiate Rowing association regat- ta here next Monday have it that the winner of the four-mile grind will be the eight that beats California. The Golden Bears, winners of the championship last season and Olymp- ic title holders as well, have im- pressed all observers during their workouts here. A fine time trial has led the experts to believe that Coach Ky Ebright has: just as good a crew this year as he had last when the Californians broke the 27-year-old record for the Poughkeepsie course. However, eastern fans are not yet ready to concede the championship to the west coast again. They are bank- ing on young Rich Glendon’s Colum- bia eight or Jim Wray’s powerful Cornell boatload to uphold eastern prestige. Most observers content themselves with the opinion that the race again will be a duel between Cal- ifornia and Columbia with the result & toss-up. By WILLIAM BRAUCHER Beyond the fact that the big crew races annually fill several psycho- Pathic wards with wire news report- ers who get that way trying to dis- tinguish between yellow and white on the tip of the glistening oar blades as the contestants near the finish line, what would you put down as the swect and abiding thrill of a boat match? Is it the rowers whose great frames often collapse under the terrific strain of four miles of work that you couldn't hire ordinary men to do? Is it that last half mile when a bunch of dark specks far down. under the bridge swiftly enlarge into rhythmic, pulsing, swishing machines, shooting through the water like swift snakes? Or, would you say it is the moment after when panting and conquered men toss over ipte.the victor's boat those grimy, toll-streaked shirts as trophies of the battle? The Happiest Moment For us these things have always been very well indeed in their way, with an occasional thrill such as the sinking of the Yale freshman shell several years ago. By the way, sev- eral members of that crew knew not one thing about swimming, which made the experience all the more pal- Pitating. But the happiest moment of all for us has been the gathering of stalwart men after the varsity races, and their manhandling of the coxswain and tossing him into the river. There seems to be some poetic justice about this playful custom that cannot be denied. From the season's earliest workout, that brat of a coxswain has sat there in the shell, riding without ever touching an oar. you unspeak- things, oftentimes personal hhings. i e * You have bent your back until you thought surely they'd have to stop and put all hands to bailing the craft, the water has rolled from your sweat- ing body in such streams. He has sat there trough it all, that brat of a coxswain, screaming at you, ling you, “stepping up” the stroke, goadi tly | the personification of Simon Legree— until his bending back and swaying body have become a nightmare in the lives of the crew. He signifies all that is odious about, bossism. He rides there in front of you without paying a nickel. You are in his power. If you refused to pull, he couldn't advance an inch. He is always ahead of you, giving orders, orders, orders, through that accursed megaphone. He takes you back to the THE BISMARCK TRIRUNE Tourney, Coxswains Are ‘Brats’ as Crews Train for Race ENGLEMANN ENTERS DECATHLON AT NATIONAL A. A. U. CONTESTS Star Jackrabbit Athlete Com- peted in Decathlon For Olympic Tryouts WEAK IN JAVELIN, VAULT | Among Opponents Will Be Bar- ney Berlinger and Tom Churchill, Favorites Brookings, 8. D., June 19.—That the champion South Dakota State college track squad will be represented by its leaping and running sensation, Weert Englemann, Miller, at the national A. A. U. championship meet at Den- day by Coach Bert Eckberg. : Englemann will enter in the de- cathion, the same event he competed for in the Olympic tryouts at Phila- delphia last summer, and will meet the best men that the nation has in! going this gruelling all-around event. The decathlon eonsists of the 100-meter, 400-meter, and 1500-meter races, the high hurdles, high jump, broad jump, the pole vault, and the shot, discus and javelin. The javelin and pole vault are considered Weert’s weakest points, and he will be given special training in these events during the hext two weeks, Among the well-known athletes and decathion men who will probably take part in the meet July 5 are Berlinger, University of Pennsylvania; Churchill, Oklahoma; Stewart, California; and Doherty, Detroit. Coach Eckberg feels that his all-around star will stack up well with these men if he performs up to his capabilities. Fort Snelling is the scene of Engle- mann’s present training activities. He has gone there to attend the officers’ camp. Present plans call for leaving there early for Denver to put the fin- ishing touches on the training process under the expert eye of Coach Eck- ver July 5, was made public here to- | berg. In order to successfully take part in @ decathlon, in which all ten of the events are run off in one day, it is necessary for an athlete to be in tip-top shape, and Coach Eckberg is to try to have the South Dakota Ed in the “pink” of condition if pos- sible. ALBROWN BEATS GREGORIO TO Lenghty Cuban Negro Decisive- ly Outpoints Spanish Ban- tamweight Entrant KNOCKOUT NEAR Brown Algo Lays Claim to N. 8. A. Recognition But Fact Is Denied IN 13TH New York, June 19.—(#)—The ban- tamweight division had a ruler today that the New York state athletic commission, at least, could recognize —Panama Al Brown. Brown decisively outpointed Vidal Gregorio, of Spain, in a 15-round GET NEW YORK’S RECOGNITION bout at the Queensboro stadium last. night and thereby won recognition by the state commission as “defending bantamweight champion of the world.” The Panama negro, one of the cleverest boxers in the business, also lays claim to the National Boxing as- sociation’s 118-pound championship. Brown claims he was recognized as champion by Tom Donohue, Connec- ticut boxing commissioner, when Don- ohue was president of the N. B. A. Donohue, however, later was reposed and the N. B. A. announced last night that it no longer recognized any one ‘as king of the 118-pounders. Brown's decisive victory over Gre- Gorlo did have the effect of clearing up some part of the tangled situation in the division brought about two years ago when Charley Phil Rosen- berg came in overweight for a titu- lar fight and forfeited his crown. The skinny negro outboxed the round. Only in this frame, however, was Gregorio in danger of a knock- out. From start to finish he plowed Wrapped in the best 5¢ investment you can make in a cigar.
