WOMENS CHAMDION A CORNELL has picked no sol ots for its athletics on the annual Bpring that mark the high spot of sports excitement on and above Cayuga's famous waters. ‘The baseball team will play Yale on this date, May 23, while Jack Moakley’s track and field squad takes on Keen Fitzpatrick's Prince- ton boys. As a climax, the cham- pion Big Red crews will row Har- wvard, Massachusetts Tech and Syra- cuse. This quadrangular regatta is the biggest naval affair on Lake Cay- uga since the intercollegiates were rowed there in 1920. It takes on al interest because it brings to- her the crews that finished 1-2-3 1 the varsity classic at Pough- cepsie last June—Cornell, Syra- cuse and M. I. T. . Cornell rows Yale and Princeton on the Housatonic river May 15, so the veteran Big Red crews will be given all the early testing that the most critical expert could desire. 3 Honor Solem Out at Des Moines tuey gave Os- sie Solem, Drake university’s ath- letic director and football coach, a testimonial dinner on the eve of the annual Drake Relays.

It has |less than 2,000 enrolled students. | Its endowment is less than $2,000,- | 000. With limited means, howzver, |it has developed unusual prestige, | especially on the gridiron and in | track and field sports. Sec. Taylor of the Des.Moines | Register, in summing up Solem’s football record, notes his teams in 10 years won 40, lost 29 and tied two games for a percentage of .613, playing a schedule that many the bigger universities uch as Notre Dame, Kansas, Ne- braska, Pittsburgh, Utah, Minne- sota, Missouri. cf ‘Women Bowiers Whether or not woman's place is on the bowling alleys, the evidence is that feminine interest has devel oped to a substantial degree in th pepular sport. So much so that Mrs. R. J. Mc- | Cutcheon of Pueblo, Colo., was per- | suaded by the bowling interests to | make a country-wide tour after she | had attracted attention by beat- | ing the one time world's champion, | Jimmy Smith, from Scratch. | Three years ago Mrs. McCutch- things said abcut him by news- jeon bowled a string of 245, 234, and f Where Herr Max ‘Ynis 18 the latest air view ot the new Mumeipal Stadiurg at Cleveland, Ohio, to the rifiht of Lake (right) will crown of world’s hcavyweight champ against the on- Erie, where Max Schmelin, Will Defend His Crown slaughts ot on July 3. defend his 1224 to dofeat Smith by 704 t includad ! e 4 at Denver. She had been bowling only two years when she accom- plished this extracrdinary victory for her sex. “Women," says Mrs. McCutcheon, “are handicapped in bowling by not having the strength of men. Roll- ing a 16 pound mineralite ball is not like playing ping pong. But what women lack in strength they can make up in accuracy. ‘The ball I use has medium spead. A 225 score for a woman is equal to a 250 score for a man.” Mrs. McCutcheon is 35 ye: old. Her best three game total is 817, made in practice, but she once averaged 245 for 12 straight games in competition, which is good enough to beat 9,999 out of every 10,000 male bowlers, if not all of them. NEW YORK, May 13.—In pre- season doping it was figured that the Brooklyn Robins, relying too much on left-handed hitters, might prove fatally weak against south- paw pitching. The Rcbins have done much to confirm. The club 1lost seven of its first eight National League games, being defeated times by left-handers. — e — CARD PARTY TONIGHT THE.
