Past Year Has Brought Up New Prob- lems and Marks Courtney’s Retire- ment. There has been no more interesting sfason in American college rowing than the onc which closed when Har- vard's varsity eight won the third straight Crimson_victory of the a: over Yale and incidentally broke record for the four mile cour: a which has stood since 1888, says the New York Times. It was a season of up- and surprises from the day last fall when Columbia won a victory over th ime Yale eight, to the moment when a graduate ccach, Herbert F. Herrick, turned out the best crew Harv. rd ever had. It was noted be- > of the retirement of a working coach of the m picturesque figure in college rowing. Charles E. Court- new, Cornell's mentor for the past 30 years, and because of the many les- ons in s and methods which hay. ght about. ough it is true that Harvard and Syracuse were favorites at New Lon- don and Poughkeepsie, respectively, no o 1ght th ts would be 0 markedly superior.

The other i methed of producing a win- vz crew. It is a biz one for the time beirg on account of the ISyracuse i s the first time that an intercolleziate rowing victor contained men who were de- loped in boat row. The big lesson of the season is brought to attention of Courtney’s nounced retirement from active duties and | to establish a zraduate system at Cornell and the success that rvard h of Herrick.

Even Joe Wright, the oar, who coached Pennsyi- pted to make coaches out members of his Pennsylvania but without success, and at Co- a move is on foot to develop as an intramural sport with duate coaches to assist James C. Rice, its coach, in the extra duties which will fall to that department of sport. The Cornell situation i most important one, as Ithaca have longest been victorious and a change in men and methods which is in contemplation means that the new order is of greatest interest. Al- though Courtney did not do all the coaching this past year it s not amiss to Hate that this 1916 Cornell crew was typical of work and rowed a race that was typical of its predeces- sors. For the past three or four years Courtney 1S be- hotly pursued by other American ege coaches; and even were he ot the height of his ability, competent rowing men think that the winning of a Cornell crew in a race would be longer an assured fact. Rice at Co- lumbia has caught up with Courtney s have Herrick and Ten Eyck, the Harvard and Syracuse tutors. The reason that is given for the re- cent defeats of Cornell is not the poor health of Courtney but the inability of the Cornell eights to sprint. This year's elght fell down at the start and practically rowed a 26 stroke through the race, raising it bur little at the end and being unable to make the pace higher because it did not know how. Cornell's strength in the past has been due to having a _superior troke for a low pace and with it row- ing into a lead It has not had a sprint and has rarely needed it. Now that other crews have solved the problem of keeping in the race to within striking distance, Cornell has been whipped The man Cornell has picked for next vear's coach is John Collver, captain and stroke of this years crew. All rumor to the contrary is unofficial, because Collyer is wanted by Courtney and by Cornell men. He will not row next vear, although ne s a senfor. Collyer and Cornell men realize that the Courtney stroke must be changed to meet conditions, and the change is o come in putting a sprint into it. To do this the most marked feature of it, the long hang at the catch to prevent a_check in the boat will have to be modifled Style of Stroke Different. The Cornell experiment will be the first attempt of a colleze to_establish a stroke it has been rowing for years. Herrick, at Hawvard, {s not teaching the stroke he rowed back in 1889, when he stroked its varsity. He has long been a close student of rowing and has built up a stroke of his own, nearer to the Ten Eyck style than any other, but different from it in the method of feathering. It is a sculler's stroke, and it is one which puts less strain on the abdomen than the Eng- lish stroke taught by Nickalls. As was predicted before the Yale-Harvard by far the eights judging from resuilts, ing BridweH and Gowdy.

In fact, the Rlee situation is an odd one. Rice seems to want to leave Co. lumbia, judging by his remarks his nine years as coach he has pro- duced but one winning eizht, vet he is under contract to 1921 at a salary above the average pald winning coaches. Columbia men have backed him and worked for him. Rice knows rowing—this is, strokes and rigging— as well as any man in charge of a crew today. Pennsylvania has much to do in every line to regain its long-lost row- ing prestige. The trouble with the Quakers is not their present coach. Joe Wright has a wonderful personal- ity, and is loved by all who work un- der and with him. He knows rov and at Toronto produced nine winner in 11 races some years aso against coaches like Ten Eyck and Rice. His overwhelming defeat at Poughkeepsie was particularly annoying. The trou- ble at the Philadelphia institution is a lack of interest in rowing matters by the rowing authorities. Penn is Handicapped. They work under a smaller eash appropriation than any other crew and get less men out. They need an awakening and the stimulating influ- ence of a man like Wright to build up a plan like the one Columbia con- templates. Intramural rowing from a boathouse which will accommodate more than half a dozen eights is the remedy, and without it they cannot hope for better crews than have been their portion. There is a great amount of talk about taking regatta matters out of the hands of the.railroads on aceount has| transplanted English ones. It was an overwhelming defeat for Y and Nickalls, and marks a new era . in American intercollegiate rowing The vital point in the Syracuse vie- tory at Poughkeepsie is the question of ‘whether the same methods which | have marked the production of other intercollegiate athletic teams are to| Lold in rowing.

But it is the single major intercollegiate sport which has nol moot points as to the men par of their stand in relation to dates, etc. The time of the Poughkeepsie i regatta was too early, but it was then {or mever. At New London the ‘crowd on the train saw the freshman race only because of del: due to a bad start on the first attempt. Then, too, hould the Poughkeepsie course be used in the future, as seems almost certain, because of Columbia’s invest- cnt in a boathouse there, the raccs uld be rowed further out in the am to get more even condition. | present course is unfair, as the rowing coaches senerally agree.

While Ban Johnson remains silent for the once and leaves each feature of the pastime be, the silence in the junior circuit waxes oppressive, so much that one of the lesser _sateli- lites must needs break it. Hughey Jennings has donned the plaintiff toga and is declaiming claims that all the world may hear. But Hughey is not pausing from his “Ee'yah” to com- | municate words of needless import. Hughey song bears solemn and azing truth in it—a truth which |every constant visitor of a ball park has observed. Jennings would curb the vocal ac- tivities of the more and even less profane fans. He fails to sec why [the gentleman underneath the stands | should heap insult on the head of the gentleman underneath the sun. The riding, indulged in by some of the Daseball boosters does not meet with the disapproval of the Detroit pilot. To wax colloquial one would say that it's the nedeless abuse which drives his goat from the goatery. “Stop a fan from velling and mak- ng a noise and you take the color om the game,” he rises to remark: Often after the opposing team make: a rally somebody will yell from the and, ‘How do you like that, ch? and all T can do is to try and come back. But the erstwhile attorney differently about the rowdyism. wants the game made as Ban son has tried to make it—a fit place to take your wives and sweethearts, one at a time, of course. Insulting the players he would stamp out com- pletely. He suggests that plain clothes men should be placed in the stands ady to efect a noisome and irritat- ing individual. Publicity given the ejections would soon lessen the ear profaning gutterals of the would be “devils” of fans. Mr. Jennings has traveled around the American circuit for more than a few years. Before that he traveled in the old National circuit. He knows the game and knows the fans. feels He John- A Good Word for “Christy”. The New York Eventng Post In a recent ed comments on Mathew- son s In the long period of Mathewson’s association with the New York club, he earned a reputation as the great- est pitcher that ever stood on the mound not only, but as one of the fair- est and highest minded athletes that base ball or any other game has pro- duced. His value to the Giants as a money-maker for the team cannot be estimated; it was Mathewson's abili- ty year after vear which was de- pended upon to keep his team in front, to keep the public interested in the club — incidentally to keep the gate recelpts on a satisfactory plane. You may talk of this player, or this group of players, you may talk of McGraw's great wmanaz@ial ability, but when you come @own to it Christy Mathew- son was keystone of the club's success, and when his powers began to wane the Giants waned, too.
