SLOW STROKE EFFECTIVE Seattle Boat Leads From Start and, WIUi Long, Powerful Pull, Steadily Draws Away From Contenders From South. SEATTLE. Wash.. May 2iV The Uni versity of Washing-ton eight-oared crew, which will go East next month to row In the Poughkeepale regatta, confirmed Its title to the Pacific Coast champion ship tonight when It defeated the Uni versity of California eight by 100 yards over the three-mile course on Lake Washington. Washington wan an easy winner and at no time was hard pressed. The race wu slow. The exact time was not taken, the timekeepers being unable to find the flag at the finish, but the unofficial time was given as IS minutes. The Washington oarsmen were fresh at the finish and plainly showed that they had not extended themselves, while California's men were tired. Washington, which ordinarily rows 13 strokes to the minute, rowed at the rate of 29 the first two miles, increas ing the stroke during the last mile until it reached 13. California rowed an average of 3$ strokes, going up to 37 for a short time during the last mile, but dropping back to 3$ before the finish. Washington's style of rowing, using a long, hard pull, against California's short, rapid stroke, made the ease with which the Seattle crew won seem all the more apparent. Washington caught the water first and Jumped Into an early lead,' being two lengths ahead at the end of the first mile. This was maintained until the crews entered on the last mile, when Washington, speeding up. shot the Seattle shell far out of reach of the Golden Bear, and Washington was fully 100 yards ahead and was Increas ing that lead when the race ended. The water, which waa somewhat rough early In the afternoon, had quieted when the varsity race was rowed. The Washington Boat Club eight, composed of second crew men, won an exciting two-mile race In the prelimi nary event with the Vancouver Boat Club, finishing barely a half length ahead. Washington's time In this race was 11:15. Washington led all the way at an average of 33 strokes a minute. The lake was somewhat rough during this race, and the Washington shell was almost swamped when the race ended. The Vancouver oarsmen rowed stead ily with a stroke of 36. and although a full length behind at the end of the first mile, were pressing Washington hard at the finish. he reported at headquarters he waa or dered to Sacramento and probably will be In the Seal line-up tomorrow.

BUD SEEKING MATCH Sporting Sparks K hakk CMANtjis, or New x one, ar- I gued for an hour with President Somers. of the Cleveland Naps, re cently In an attempt to secure Roger Peckinpaugh, ex-Portland shortstop. Lajote's Injury, however, makes Peck indispensable, as he Is now the only utility lnfielder. John Horan, champion three-cushion bllliardlst, and Alfred de Oro, former title-holder, will play a 150-polnt match at Wright's Emporium In San Fran clsco May 27, 28 and 29. J. J. Parker, well-known Portland billiard man, re ceived this Intelligence in a telegram from Chick Wright yesterday. The English maintain that a red ball is easier to hit than a white one and they use the crimson sphere In cricket. Jack Ryan should be forced to use a red one against the Beavers. From majors to the Virginia club of the Northern League is quite a drop for Rube Waddell, famous pitcher. e e George Carpentler. the French fighter, ran out of his fight with Frank Klaus because he could not make the weight of 160 pounds, 'tis said. Sacramento friends of Patsy O'Rourke are panning Wolverton for trading him to Venice. They say Patsy had the Senators in fifth place at this time last year, whereas Wolverton is in the cellar. One year ago, however, the Senators were one game lower In per centage, and. furthermore, the major ity of fans had given up all hope, while they are still sticKing to woiverion and believe he will pull out. Krohn Back From College. Robert Krohn, former Washington High star athlete, who has made good during his freshman year at Stanford, returned to his home Wednesday night from San Francisco. The sensational pole vaulter will remain here for the Summer. If Krohn Is declared ineligible to compete with Multnomah . during the P. N.

TITLE FIGHT IN SIGHT With McCarey and Nolan Both Is suing Flat Statement, Vancouver Lad's Chances to Meet Ritchie Independence Day Grow. SA! FRANCISCO, May. 23. All doubt aa to what action Billy Jfojan, manager for Willie Ritchie, would take with re spect to the fighter's services were set at rest thl afternoon when m local light promoter received the following tele gram I "Ritchie to fight before Oraney's club, San Francisco, July 4. That's final. Nolan." Jiut who the other man will be In the ring with Ritchie has not been de cided. Efforts are being made to secure Joe Rivers, "Bud" Anderson or Freddie Welsh. LOS ANGELES, May 22. (Special.) Bud Anderson, the Oregon light weight, left Los Angeles today for San Francisco on the boat and will meet the various promoters there to morrow In an effort to get on with some good boy for July 4, In oase he fails in his ambition to meet either Rivers or Ritchie. Bud will then go to Portland, where he has signed for one-week's whirl in the vaudeville game, beginning next Monday. Manager Donald says Anderson win fight somebody on July 4. but admits that Rivers has prior claim to the championship match. In case, how ever, that the Kitcme-Kivers aeai blows up, Anderson will taKe on tne one he can get. Donald says If Ritchie and Rivers do clash its a cinch that the winner will be matched, with An derson for Labor day. Tom McCarey decided today that his Fourth of July card would be Willie Ritchie and Joe Rivers. This match of course, cannot be made without the consent of Ritchie, and so McCarey telegraphed Manager Nolan In an ef fort to close the match without further delay. He also telegraphed Eddie Gra- nev In San Francisco tnat ne wouia not release Rivers from his promise to fight here. The fact that Ritchie prefers Ktvers to all others and the added, fact that he cannot get the Mexican without coming here, encourages McCarey to believe that he will have tne matcn closed within 24 hours. As he has met the highest offer yet made by any promoter he cannot see how Ritchie can refuse to accept, unless ne ooes not want to fight Rivers. In event Ritchie will not accept, Bud Anderson is the most likely op ponent for Rivers. WASHINGTON" REVIVES RACING Miss Eleanor Wilson Among Specta tors at Hunt Club Jt-vcnt. WASHINGTON, May 22.
