Washington's showing will depend upon the abllity of its stroke, Dow Walling, to withstand the gruelling pull after suffering for several days from an Infected knee. He was forced out of the boat last Saturday by a c‘rbuncle and threatened for a time with blood poisoning. He resumed his place in the boat last evening. Syracuse and Columbla Strong. Syracuse, though defeated earlier In the season by the Navy, has a powerful eight. ~ Columbla's’ speedy crew is one of the best that the New Yorkers have had in several seasons. Cornell is regarded as below the ordinarily high Ithaca standard, and Pennsylvania, though declared by its coach, Joe Wright, to be the best of his recent products, is unusually 1idnt. Byracuse and Columbia loomed as leading contenders for the junior varsity title, sought also by Cornell and Pennsylvania, while Washing- ton's rangy freshman eight is picked to fizht it out for yvearling honors with Cornell. Columbla, Pennsyl- vanla and Syracuse are the only other freshman entrants. Cloudy weather with moderate tem- peratures gave some hint of rain, but ver men prophesied ideal conditions r the races.

WIMBLEDON, June 28.— There were no upsets in the world tennis champlonship tourney at Wimbledon vesterday and only one big thrill. This was when Suzanne Lenglen ap- peared to start after her fifth suc. cessive world's title. She began in characteristic manner, winning every game of the two-set match from young Peggy Ingram, daughter of one of England's veteran players. Mlle. Lenglen played superbly. When she had finished many of the spectators went to the outside courts to look over the other candidates for the women’'s champlonship; there was none, however, whose play eemed even to approach Suzanne's in vigor, accuracy or strateglo soundness. Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, the American champion, _scored = over Miss H. L. Eddis of Erigland, 6—3, 6—3, but Miss Eddis lacks firmnes: in hitting the ball that one asso. clates with every good player. Miss Kathleen McKane, Great Britain’s best womani player, who is considered to have the best chance of dethroning the long reigning Lenglen, was responsible for the only set-back flered by the American delogation of eleven players—elght women and three men. She pushei aside Miss Katherine Gardner of Cambridge, Mass., with the loss of only one game. In the big matches in which Amer- icans took part, Vincent Richards dofeated S. M. Jacobs, Indlan Davis Cup player, 6—2, 6—3, §—6; Willlam M. Johnston scored over R. D. Wat- son, young Briton, 6—1, 6—2, 9— and Francis Hunfer won from V. llur{ a London player, 5—7, 6—0, 6—1, L If Johnston and Richards win thelr matches today they will meet in the next round.
