THE MORNING OltEGONIAN. TTJESDAT, MAX 31, 1910.
WOMEN ROWERS
Rowing, Canoeing and Swimming
Races Make tp Programme, but
Mixed Crews Feature of Day.
v'" r-
. For ' the- first time in the athletic his
tory of Portland women were entered
yesterday in rowing races and pulled in
the same shells with men, apparently
none the worse for the hot pace of a
gruelling contest.
. In the annual Decoration day regatta
of the Portland Rowing Club the first
water sports of the year were held yes
terday afternoon. These consisted of
rowing, canoeing and swimming races,
and in spite of other attractions in the
river, a good-sized crowd followed the
exciting races and enjoyed the sport.
The events were held over the club's
regular course.
The feature of the afternoon's sport
was the race in which mixed crews were
entered. After pulling over the three
fourths mile course of the race, the two
girls who accompanied the two men in
each shell seemingly were as fresh as
when they started. It was a close race,
too, and not over a length separated the
shells at the finish line. As a result of
this innovation a woman's annex will
likely be made a permanent addition to
the club and rowing by women become a
regular part of the programme on re
gatta days.
Club Has Two Women's Crews.
The club now has two women's crews
and another is being organized. The
winning crew in yesterday's mixed race
consisted of Miss Nellie Dorney, Miss
Stella Berger, C. S. Tuck, stroke, and A.
Pfaender, bow. The other crew was made
up of Miss Kit Dorney, Miss Nettie Bu
kowsky, I. F. Wait and Captain Arthur
Allen.
The 'swimming races, under the dlrec
tion of Arthur Cavill, swimming in
etructor of the Multnomah Amateur Ath
letlo Club, proved a strong, part of the
afternoon's events. There were two of
these, a 50-yard race for Junior boys and
a 100-yard dash for seniors. The junior
race was won by George Milton, with
Alfred Krohn second and William Mc-
Indoe third. The time was 42 seconds.
The 100-yard dash was a handicap race
with Phil Patterson starting at scratch.
Patterson won out over the other boys
by swimming harder than he has ever
before swum in any Portland race. The
time, for the distance was 1 minute and
3 seconds. Patterson holds the Pacific
Coast championship in the 440-yard swim.
He was coached by Arthur Cavill.
Junior Four Wins in Fast Time.
The four-oared race between the senior
and junior crews was won by the junior
four in fast time over a one-mile course.
The senior crew is composed of strong
ouoiKeUo wa Uiat haven't had much- ex
perience, Captain Allen being the only
experienced man in the shell. On the
other hand, yie junior crew has been to
gether for two years and has had much
racing experience. The senior crew is:
Spooner, stroke; Hulin, No. 2; Phillipbar,
No. 3, and Allen, bow. Wait, stroke; Hel
wig, No. 3; Tuck, No. 2; Pfaender, bow,
are the members of the junior crew.
. The doubles race was won by E. Gloss
and Moore over J. Gloss and Ball. The
lapstreak contest was won by the crew
Composed or Wait, Helwig, F. Moore and
McCabe over the four composed of E.
Gloss, Weigle, Tuck and Allen.
The canoe races were exciting. . In the
men's doubles five crews started, but
one capsized before much of the course
had been traversed. Ed Gloss and Wait
won the race by beating Mankurtz and
Havely by less than a half length. In
the mixed doubles race two crews en
tered. Miss Hazel Henry and Pfaender
defeated Miss Nettle Bukowsky and
Spooner by a few feet.
Trophy Race Is Best.
The race for the H. E. Judge club chal
lenge trophy for the junior singles was
one of the best races of the day. A.
Pfaender won the cup; J. Gloss was
second and W. . Ball third. The win
ner becomes possessor of ' the cup
for one year. To the winning crews will
be given pins bearing the official club
colors.
The last event of the programme was
the duck hunt for the swimmers, in
which a duck with Its' wings clipped was
turned loose in the river and chased by
tho BWimmers. The duck finally got
away.
The pins and trophies won at yester
day's regatta will be presented at the
informal dance to be given by the club
next "riaay night in the clubhouse. AH
the members and their friends are in
vited to attend.

Playing, but Game Is Enjoyed.
Old grads walloped the golfers out at
the links yesterday afternoon when the
nine from the University Club defeated
the Waverly Golf Club team to the tune
of 9 to 4. Men who had not donned suits
for years frolicked around In the hot
sun and imagined they were having a
good time, wniie a generous crowd of
rooters for the two teams sat about on
the turf and consumed lemonade.
The playing was not calculated to make
Hans Wagner green with envy, but every
body seemed to be enjoying the sport.

Locks Sunday and added another victory
to their list by the score of 11 to 2. The
features of the game were the heavy

Krause, who struck out nine men and
allowed 'two hits. This makes six games
won out of eight played, the six victories
being won with Krause pitching.
Hubbard 5; Portland O. K. Team I.
HUBBARD, Or., May 30. (Special.)

Portland in a rattling game here Sun

Champion Glad to Hear That Jef
fries Is Showing in Fine Form,
and Remarks He ' Does Not
Want to Whip- Cripple. .
SAN FRANCISCO, May 30. Decora
tion day -was a big event at the Johnson
camp. The champion played to a capa
city house in the afternoon when he
went through his usual boxing stunts.
For all that, Johnson kept his audience
waiting three-quarters of an hour,
which occasioned much hooting and
hissing. It was a good-natured crowd
that greeted him when he finally made
his appearance, and good judges de
clare it was one of tie most satisfac
tory workouts since he has gone into
training.
Johnson weighed less today than
since his arrival here. Before he
stepped on the scales he said he
thought he was down pretty light, and
this was proved when he registered at
215 pounds.
Glad Jeffries Is In Shape.
"That's a little too light for me," he
said. "I am to fight Jeffries at from
208 to 210 pounds, and I will have to
put on a little weight in the next few
days.
"I am glad to hear that Jeffries is in
good condition," he declared. "That's
the way that I want him to be, for
when I beat him I don't care to have
the excuse made that I have beaten a
cripple or a. fellow not in the best of
condition. People who saw him in the
ring the other night say he is in treat
shape, and that, pleases me,'! ..
Road Work to Be Resumed.
Johnson's work consisted of eight
rounds of boxing. His best perform
ance was four rounds with George Cot
ton. He followed that up -with three
rounds with Marty Cutler, who begged
off from further exercising, and then
finished up with one round with Dave
Mills.
Tomorrow Johnson will return to his
road work, but on Wednesday he will
be back in the ring again.
It was announced at the Johnson
camp today that Al Kaufman will join
the crowd of workers at the beach in
another week, and that Billy Delaney
had finally consented to supervise the
training of the champion.
CORBETT ARRIVES AT CAMP
Ex-Champion Starts to "Limber Up'
Despite Terrific Heat.
BEN LOMOND, Cal.. May 30. Jim
Jeffries spent Decoration day casting
lor trout some miles above .his camp.
Some visitors came to the fighter's
camp early to seek cool recreation and,
accompanied by Tex Rickard and Jack
Wooley, went on a fishing expedition.
The- camp, however, was aroused to
life by the appearance of James J.
Corbett, ex-champion heavyweight, who
is to assist in getting Jeffries Into
proper form to meet Johnson. Cor
bett slipped into the camp unannounced
and immediately went to work in the
gymnasium to "limber up" and try
himself out on some - preliminary
stunts, despite the heat. :
The ex-champion elicited much favor
able comment from the trainers who
watched him at work for his strength,
agility, endurance and wind.
During the scorching noon hours vir
tually the entire camp drifted down,
the river to seek cool, shady spots, but
about 3 o'clock returned, and Corbett
at once donned his working togs.
Ministers Protest to Gillett.
COLUMBUS, O., May 30. Protesting
against the Jeffries-Johnson prize
fight, the Columbus Presbyterian Min
isters' Association today addressed a
letter to Governor Gillett, of California.

poor return for the kindness.
