This is the experimental stage for all coaches, as various boating combinations are tried and new material tested. Occasionally a couch may be fortunate enough to jstart the season with a veteran sct of oarsmen, but it is an irresistible temptation not to give a chance to |any promising looking youngster.

Whitney’s Horse, Al- though Losing to Paul Jones, Makes Great Showing. (Gpecial to The Evening Worid.) BALTIMORE, Md., April 25. RYSTHR! If ever a three-year- old qualified for the post of Derby favoritism, Harry Payne Whitney's game son of Peter Pan, Tryster, did that when ne forced | Paul Jones, the Kentucky Derby win- ner of "20, to ©. three-furlo g drive to ‘beat him by three parts of a length at Havre de Grace in the Susquehan- na Handicap. ‘Tryster's was the stand-out performance of the season, a mile in actual competition, over a track made to order for his opponent, ‘and on his first outing of the season. There was considerable surprise expressed when Trainer Jimmy Rowe | accepted the weight adjustment i preference to the Cl. -sapeake ar- rangement, which would have seen him on even terms with others of his age; but there was also the realiza- tion that he must be in wonderful condition, else his record would not have been jeopardized. If he were to meet Paul Jones again to-day— same weights, same distance and track conditions as they were on Saturday—Tryster would be the top- heavy favorite of the professionals. Some of those who watched his gallant struggle were inclined to blame the start; others criticised Kummer’s riding; but the combina- tion was enough to bring unmerited defeat. The performance showed that ‘Tryster can run over a heavy track— the sort that frequently prevails on Derby Day at Churchill Downs. He can carry weight, else he would not ‘have been able ‘to concede sixteen pounds by the April scale to such a high-class mudder as Paul Jones, whose wet track form is recognized to be notdess than ten pounds better than his dry track effort. The Sus- quehanna proved that Tryster is as fit as the proverbial fiddle for his Kentucky engagement on May 1, Tryster was unloaded from a motor van on Friday night after a seven- hour ride from Red Bank, N.

Rowe shipped Tryster and Exodus back to Brook- dale immediately after the races The coughing here probably prompted him to do that. The Son of Peter Pan will be shipped to the Downs possibly to- morrow or Wednesday, or as soon as his compiete recovery from Satur- day's race is evident. Those who saw his wonderful performance were united to a man on his right to Derby Post favoritism and are only hoping that his race will not have any evil result, such as attended John P. Grier when he was brought here for his Derby trial and raced over a track much like Saturday's was, The race was a strenuous one and took the edge off Grier's speed, so that he was compelled to be eliminated as a Derby potentiality, James Casey, familiarly known as ‘Airplant,” who incidentally is one of the most astute judges of thor- oughbreds in the country, witnesse: Tryster’s performance and was so impressed that he commissioned a New Yorker to, wager $200 on the colt’s Derby chance the while ad- mitting that he was by Inclination a $20 bettor, and he wanted to post the money on the spot, at prevailing odds. When Casey wants to bet $200, the Derhy must be "In" was the comment of Uncle Billy Garth, who trains Paul Jones. The Virginian was candid enough to admit that he would hate to have seen Tryster beaten by any other horse, and he felt a bit guilty about even that, Careful will be sent to try for the Derby, because of her performance in the Chesapeake, when she proved that she is better than a sprinter. | The Wraok filly is also an Oaks can- didate and she qualified for that am- ply by galloping her mile and seventy yards in 1471-6, (Tryster’s mile separately timed was 1.41 3-5, or 4-5 second better than Careful's). She not only qualified but eliminated Star Voter as a Derby possibility so decisively that Commander Ross de- termined not to send the Rallot colt after the classic, and so will be with- out a representative, It is possible that Careful will go the Berby distance ‘of 11-4 miles, | though she appears a bit undersized. | She was that last year when she car- ried all before her in the Maryland ation, but in the light of Saturday's results, there is but one outstanding choice, Tryster.

(Special to The Evening World.)

This however was only. one | change in the general shake-up which was indicated after the poor showing of the Eli oarsmen in the initial race of the boating season. This woek has been devoted in fact to a series of shifts in an attempt of Coach .Mick- alls to find a better combination for his first crew. First Payson and Ruasell were taken from the second crew and Martin and Mali were sent tothe second varsity, Russell going'¢n a® bow and Payson at No. 4 in the va; - sity. Cowles has also been move | from the second boat because of h weight and ability, Later Martia was again tried in the first shell an® still later Carman was taken from the second boat and given a piace im the first varsity.

(Special to The Firening Word, ) PHILADELPHIA, April 25.—Jo# Wright, the genial big Canadian who coaches the University of Pennsyi vania crews, does not believe in policy of beating around the bush where his athletes are concerned, Nor does he believe in secrecy.

When Wright says he is merely hoping for the best when his cohorts meet the Olympic champion eight of the United States Naval Academy om the Severn on April 30 the whole world knows there is no overwhelm- ing confidence in the Penn camp But there is one factor that has to ‘be counted. Penn wants to defeat that Navy crew more than it wants anything else this season. Unless something unforesecn. de- velops between now and fhe date of the race the Red and Blue boat, wil§ be the same as defeated Yale, critics who laughed at Wright fr seating Mitchell as stroke have been driven to cover by the remarkable showing of the dimmutive sweep im the Yale race and during practice.
