LONDON, April 5,—{United Press) —The Oxford and Cambridge boat’ race was rowed today over the cus- tomary Thames course between Putney Bridge and the Ship Hotel. Mortlake, a distance of roughly four and a quarter miles. Despite the fact that Oxford was expected to enjoy virtually a “walk over,” national interest in the con- test was unabated. Today's was the seventy-sixth contest between the rival universities, Oxford having won forty, Cambridge thirty-four, and in 1877 there was a dead-heat. ‘Vast crowds lined the bridges and river banks for hours before the crews were due tu take the water, for the Saturday. half-holiday brought out thousands. No money prize was at stake, and betting on the result was !nfinitesmal, but two boatloads of vigorous young oars- men were prepared to row them- selves to death, and all sporting Britains wanted to be there to whoop them on. Oxford, with six of last year's crew available, their opponent's boat, favorites almost since serious prac- | tice started ten weeks ago, for in this race experience counts for much. Further, in their captain, ‘W. F. Mellen, an American Rhodes scholar, the Dark Blues possessed one of the greatest strokes seen on the Thames for many years. Mellen was the hero of last year’s race, and when it came to electing a cap- tain this year he was an automatic choice, though some rather objected to an American being given the captaincy. Mellen easily justified his selection, proving himself not only @ great oarsman, but a born leader. The record for the race was 18 minutes 29 seconds, by Oxford, in 1911.

FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, April 5 (United Press)—Joe Lynch was the first pug- {listio champion to be dethroned in 1924, and he was one of the tive champions whose downfall was pre- dicted last winter as a certain event. The real reason for the logs of the title by Lynch throws an inter- “oe Ught upon the boxing situa- jon. Lynch, despite stout denials issued by himself and his manager, could not make the weight and be good. Hoe reported at the scales two pounds overweight, and he was given only two hours to get it off. A fat man might have taken off two pounds in thirty minutes un- der the steam, but a little fellow, who weighs around 118 or 120 pounds cannot remove a couple of pounds in such a short time without hurting himself. Lynch, before he began to rust into flesh, was to the bantamweight class, what Jimmy Wilde was for years to the flywelght division. He was 9 sort of physical freak. Wilde was all body and no legs, but Lynch was @ tall, spidery boy, who out: dimensioned all the other boys his own weight, When the list was compiled, late last year, of the five champions who were booked to lose their titles in 1924, Lynch was not listed through any doubt that he could make thi weight. It was thought that he was a legitimate bantamweight, but it was thought that he was not 2 legitimate champion or a great fight- er. . ‘There were serious doubts express- ed that Benny Leonard.and Mickey Walker could make the weight in thelr class and be strong enough to save their titles against a first class challenger. There are still rensons to believe the same way, but no legitimate chal- lengers have appeared who would not be bothered just as much as these two champions in making the weight. Walker came clean- with the New York boxing commission when he sald he was not only willing to de- fend h's title, but that he would de- \fend it against the man picked by the commission. This put the commission in a very tight hole. Two of the candidates b~'..¢ con- sidered by the commission com- | Ppetent challengers are Jock Malone and Dave Shade. Both are just as heavy as Walker, and if Walker should be hurt by making theeweight they also would. Benny Leonard, if he finds no one in his class good enough to be a gate attraction may seek a match with Walker for the welterweight title. It is eaid, in fact, that the match Is already made. Many smart boxing men think that Leonard fs making @ very serious mistake in stepping out of his class against the cham- pion of the next division. Leonard, in h's fight with Kilbane had a first-hand example of the les- son that superiority in one class does not mean that superiority in another class is just the matter of a couple of pounds. . The indoor season fafled to bring | out any lightweight that looked good Jenough to give Leonard a contest. as a matter of fact, d@dn’t bring out any lightweight. Pal Moran, the New Orleans boy, was upset by Johnny Dundee, who wants another crack at Leonard. But !f Dundee does go after his fifteenth or sixteenth bout with the lightweight champion, it will be only for the dough and for the chance of avolding competition in his own classes. Dundee knows that he cannot beat Leonard, even at 130 pounds, with } Leonard taking off an arm to make the weight. Dundee also knows |that he would have one awful time beating Sammy Mandel for the 130- pound title and that there are about a dozen featherweights who could give him all he wants. It was reported recently from Paris that Eugene Criqul, who made a world’s record for the briefness of his reign as the featherweight cham- pion, wants to come back. It would be a magnanimous thing for Dundee to give him a return bout, and if he has to be beaten to pass the title back to'that fine ttle Frenchman. There is nothing in common between Criqut and Carpentier. Criqui was a good, game fighter, and he went down fighting like a good, game sol- dier that he was Harry Greb's greatest menace was removed temporarily, when Paul Ber- lenbach was stopped by Jack De- laney. It 4s possible, however that while stopped, temporarily, the Ber- lenbach menace was mado all the more menacing by that defeat.

Unless all the signs he has shown of being a great fighter are wrong he will be a great fighter some day and he will give Greb the worst fight he ever had. Delaney was not made tn his fight ‘with Berlenbach. Ho» is not better now than he ever was. He dia convince the doubters that he could take more of a punching than they thought he could, but he proved Uttle else but that he is a smart fighter, and that was known all the time. Making the weight probably will be the worst hazard that Greb will be called upon to face this year. If Jimmy Slattery, the 19-year-old But- falo boy, keeps coming, he may take the title away from Greb next win- ter. Pancho Villa will lose the fily- weight championship because Frankie Genaro can beat him every time he fights him and because Villa must, as a natural consequence, grow out of the class, Photo shows Young Stribling, the Georgia fighter at the age of 9.

(By The Associated Press) ~ Leon Cadore, veteran pitcher, who on May 1, 1920, carved his name in the hall of baseball fame by engag- ing Joe Oeschgéer in a twenty-six inning pitching duel which ended with the score tied one to one, has been given his outright release to the Vernon Pacific Coast League club by the Chicago White Sox. Cadore was a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Ocschger twirled for the Boston Braves. Each pitcher went the entire route, es- tablishing a record for the longest game in the major leagues. Ca- dore’s arm went bad and he was waived out of the National League. The Chicago White Sox claimed his Services last season. At the training camp this spring, Cadore appeared to have gatned his former effectiveness, but it did not last. Joe Oeschger, who opposed Cadore in that memorable game, now is a member of the New York Giants, touring compantons of the White Sox. When the clubs joined hands, the two rivals met and fought the long drawn out duel all over again, while Charley Robert- son of the White Sox, another hall of baseball fame man, because of his Perfect game against the Detroit Tigers, was an interested listener. The White Sox and Giants did not play yesterday because of the rain and will not meet again for three days. The American Leaguers are booked for two games with Chat- tanooga, while the Giants hook up with Memphis for a brace of games, Rain checked the aspirations of two promising twirlers for major league berths on the Giants’ roster, whoéh Fred Newberry was released to Richmond and Bernie Thompson to Norfolk, both probably will be re- called next season. The wet day gave Acting Manager Evers considerable time to ponder over his surplus outfielders and limited inflelders. With the return of Outfielders Hooper and Mostil, the club has eight out gardeners, while on the inner defense only two inexperienced men are available— Martin and Gallagher. Because of OXFORD CREW ISDEFEATED BY CAMBRIDGE PUTNEY, England, April 5.—(By The Associated Press.)}—Cambridge university's varsity eight sprang a surprise today by defeating the heavier and more experienced Ox- ford crew in the 76th revival of their historic race on the Thames from Putney to Mortlake, The Ught blues won by about four and one half lengths. Cambridge won the toss and chose the Surrey or southern side of the course. This choice was a surprise to many of the experts, as it was generally expected the winner of the toss would choose the northern side. which afforded much protec- tion from the wind during the first two miles and at the finish. The crews got away at 2:22 p. m. on the 4% mile race. Cambridge was ahead by a quar- ter of a length at the mile and was two lengths ahead at the two mile mark. Oxford pulled up during the third mile at the end of which the Cam- bridge advantage had been reduced to one length. CLEATS ON SHOES OF GRID PLAYERS DEFINED IN RULES By WALTER CAMP. (Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, April 4.—One of the most important actions taken by the rules committee on football at its recent meeting, toward preventing injury was in defining more clearly the kind of cleats that could be worn on players’ shoes and also the Proper kind of shoulder guards. It was brought out that the leather cleat which began with a small cross plece of leather with a fairly broad edge where it struck the ground, had not only became a spike but a spike of conical shape brought down nearly to a point, fastened on with screws, the point of this conical projection being no larger than the screw itself. It Is true that when these spikes ‘are driven into the ground in the stride of @ player, they got a good grip. But it is also true that when they hit the foot or Icg of another player they inflict almost as much damage as a metal spike, The committee ruled that while the ordinary leather cleats will be allowed as previously, they must not be unnecessarily sharpened Furthermore they should be subject to the inspection of umpires. A not Will be inserted in the rules that the umpire should see that the spirit of the rule is complied with. that they shall not be unnecessarily dangerous to opposing players. It also was brought out that pro- tetione for the shoulders have not always been properly padded on the outside, it haying been contended that the mere pulling of a jersey Over tho stiff leather edge was sutf- ficient to comply with the rule. It ig manifest that the ordinary thick ness of @ jersey pulled over a sharp leather edge does not so pad or pro- tect the device as to render it un harmful to an opposing player. Such deviles must be so arranged and padded as to comply with the rule, A note will be added to the rules making it the duty of the umpire to see that this rule is obeyed. An approved ruling is to be in- serted covering the entire subject of cleats and protections.
