(The New York World), va ant CREWS ON HUDSON TO WIND UP THEIR HARD WORK TO-DAY Comparatively Light Practice Will Be Given Poughkeepsie Eights Next Week. POUGHKEEPSIE, June 2.—To-day's rowing on the river will conclude the hardest part of the programme mapped out by the coaches of the eights which take part in the big regatta on the Hudson one week from to-day. Yes- terday the water was so rough that the majority of crews failed to get their proper practice, but to-day they bopo to make up for lost time and put in two solid sessions of oarsmanship. During next week, up to the day of the race, the crews will be given com- paratively light work. ‘No such long rows as have been a part of the routine this week will be attempted. The crews will devote their time to putting on the finishing touches. Rough water rendered the work of the crews unsatisfactory yesterday both in morning and afternoon rows, Be- fore noon there was a heavy swell, which jhandicapped the oarsmen and caused “all crews save Columbia and Stanford to postpone time rows they had intended, In the afternoon a storm came and up to a little before dark no crew could venture on the water. To- ward sundown, however, things calmed down so that the crews could sllp along close to the west shore In safety, and all ventured out inthe rain. Strange to say, under these adverse conditions the University of Pennsylvania eight after the return to the boathouse Ellis Ward expressed himself as very much pleased at the improvement.

TOURNEY TODAY Charles Seely vs. Findlay Douglas Oswald Kirkby vs. Gardiner W. are the matohes carded to-day ia the semi-final round of the Apawamis tnvi-, tation golf tournament, and some ing play is anticipated, The first pair are old timers, having fought it for the metropolitan championship - @. decade ago, while the other two players only into prominence last season. Kirkby first met White in the final of the Nassau tournament last year and the Englewood man won. They met again recently at Baltusrol, when Kirt- by once more proved “too many” for the Oakland record holder, There will be a medal play handicap to-day, in addition to the matches in the various divisions, Low scores are expected, as ‘William Potts, the professional, has the Greens at their best. The best. match yesterday resulted from the meeting of Kirkby and & D. Bowers in the second round. Although out driven, the last named not only held his man, but actually stood 2 up at the eighth, Kirkby began well enough, get- ting halves in fours at the first two holes and winning the third in 3, when he drove the green. This hole is 310 yards long. A siiced drive out of bounds it Bowers the ninth, so that he made turn one up, going out In 38 to the other’s 40. Both had chances coming back, but frequently failed to take ad- vantage of their opportunities. Bowers missed short putts at the fourteenth and sixteenth, while on the home green, after a masterful recovery from a bad lle, he might have halved the mateh had he been able to “sink” an elght- foot putt.
