Winners Go to Antwerp. LAKE Q UIN'SIGAMOND, Worcester. Mass., July 2i. The navy will repre sent the United States In the rowing regatta of the seventh Olympic games on the bartre canal at Antwerp. The crew of the naval academy, competing against the most powerful college and club eights of the country, today in the combined Olympic tryouts and na tional championship regatta, left in Us wake after a hard tussle the crack crews of Syracuse university and the Duluth Boat club, which finished in that order. "Jack Kelly Also to Go. The Annapolis midshipmen had as serted in no uncertain strokes the right of the navy to carry the colors of the United States when Uncle Sam goes afloat in international athletic competitions. With the navy eight there will go to Antwerp "Jack" Kelly, again the national champion in single sculls, who, paired with his cousin, Paul V. Costello, a fellow member of the Vesper Boat club of Philadelphia, gained a double claim to Olympic honors by winning the senior doubles title. The Pennsylvania Barge club quartet of Philadelphia, expected winners yesterday of the intermediate four-oared shell race, today gained a place in the Olympics by a four length victory over Uuluth Boat club's best four and the Century quartet of St. Louis, last year's champions. Courae Flattened by Rains. The race ior senior eights was row d over J. course flattened by riiins whic-i interfered with earlier events, but which was still lined by thousands on boats and ashore, who were attract3d by the struggle for triple honors Olympic selection, na tional titleholder and the intercolle giate championship. The varsity eights of Annapolis and of Syracuse had defeated all college eights but each other during the. sea eon, and with a victory each in their two meetings, rowed it off today. Uuluth boat club's first crew sought to cut in for he national and Olympic honors and was first away. After its elow getawiy. Navy stepped up its beat from 3 4 to S6 and had gone ahead at he half mile by a few feet with Duluth close astern and Syracuse on'y a few feet behind. , Coxswain Clark, in the guiding seat of the navy shell, gave the Annapolis rowers the words which Stroke King translated into a higher stroke and the navy, rowing 38 to the minute, passed the mile mark with an open water advantage. Astern. Syracuse and Duluth fought hard in an effort to catch the navy men. Advantage Is Held. But the midshipmen held their ad vantage when they eased off on their finish, running it down to 82, but powerful strokes, to the minute, in the last 100 yards. The cadets finish ed wUh seven feet of water, in addi tion to the length of their boat as the marcin of their victory over Syracuse In the second place, whose boat was partly lapped by the Duluth crew's final effort. The Annapolis second crew which yesterday won the intermediate eignt oared race, was the leader of the sec end group. The time of the winning crew. 6 minutes 20 seconds, was the fastest ever rowed on the mile and one-quarter course here, but behind the record for the national champion ship event BY ROSCOEI FAWCETT. . F IT la possible to dig up a quart of sparkling Burgundy there ought to be a rechrlstening of the Pacific Coast Baseball league. So many players have thrown their uni forms on the floor and quit their teams that the circuit should be named the "Grasshopper league." "Pacific Coast" doesn't mean much of anything except that Its west expo sure is rather mildewed by water. On the other hand "Grasshopper" signifies that the stout-hearted athletes who earn their beans and butter west of the Rockies have strong hind legs and no stomachs and don't have to play ball to keep up the payments on their loan bonds. Judging from the number of play ers who have "grasshoppered" within the past couple of months 'he league will do well to finish the playing sea son with anything but bushers on the payroll.

William Humphrey, president of the Olympic club, declares that under the resent system it is not a matter of he country being represented by the est athletes but by those from the ections giving the most financial upport. The entire system is wrong. Ath- etic clubs belonging to the Amateur Athletic union should be assessed un der some pro rata arrangement and the money should go to a permanent Olympic fund. This would obviate the necessity of the last-minute drives for funds. This year the Pacific northwest has no grounds for complaint. The cream of the athletes in this geographical section will be on the boat bound for Belgium within a few days.

CHAMPIONSHIP TILT CHANGED Crown Willamette to Play Carmen at Sellwood Park The championship tilt between the Crown Willamette and Carmen teams scheduled for this afternoon at Cane mah park has been switched to the Sellwood pork and will be played at 3 P. M. The change was made be cause of conflicting dates, the Cane man park being engaged for a picnic. Yesterday the Crown Willamette tosyers won the championship of the Chautauqua league at Gladstone, de feating the Estacada combination 8 to 4.

Portland has been the club most hit by the "grasshopping" playy-s. Cox quit because he had an oratorical spat with George Malsel. Sehroeder didn't think Walter McCredie was giving him a proper deal, socially and finan cially. Juney jumped to pitch for small town in California where money grows on raspberry bushes. Bill Rodgers lost Eldred when he fined the former Sacramento outfield er for loafing. Eldred immediately announced that he was through at Sacramento and Rodgers had to sell him to Seattle. Rollie Zeider quit the Oaks because there wasn't anybody detailed to lug his uniform from Sac ramento to Stockton for a Sunday morning ball game. Koerner quit the Seals because of criticism by the fans. And so it goes on down the list of Coast league Tan guays. Apparently the onl way the Coast league managers can keep some of their athletes from starving to death is to smear tanglefoot on the clubhouse floor. And even so it is doubtful if this expedient would keep the Pacific Coast league millionaires, thcusand aires and two-bitaires from separat ing themselves from a steady payrol with car fare and Pullman berth thrown in for good measure. Polo powers that be seem to have awakened suddenly to the fact that the international competition is no between England and Meadowbrook Heretofore the Meadowbrook polo bunch has held itself very much aloo Seldom did the public get the privi lege even of watching the players an ponies in action. Now, with interna tional competition against England in sight for next summer there is dearth of players and a dec.-th horseflesh, and Louis Stoddard, member of tne iu team, has com out with a statement that the gam needs to be popularized. A nation-wide appeal has been made for ponies. But discovering polo ponies for Meadowbrook has never been any of the public's busi ness before and it is not likely that John Bonehead Publico will consider it much of his business in the present crisis.

One of the ablest critics of Boxe and Boxers, Parisian sport journal, who has known Georges Carpentier intimately since boyhood, watched him as a kid die develop at Grognet's gymnasium off the Avenue Grand Armee, is very much exercised over the state of the European heavyweight's health. In writing to a friend in this coun try he avers that Carpentier has lost one inch on all his measurements since the war. He looked the French athlete over prior to his leaving for America and made the assertion that Carpentier's face, always so, rosy and full of health, indicated that ne was losing weight and strength. His smile, so natural, seemed forcedv Japanese Wrestlers En Route. HONOLULU, T. H., July 24.

A geographical roll call of the 100 and some odd athletes of this country who will sail from New York tomor row bound for tl.e Olympic games at Antwerp, Belgium, would show that Blx of the number hail from the Paci fic northwest. This half-dosen star performers betters by two the quota of northwestern men who compered in the Olympic games at Stockholm in 1912. At that time four men, Martin W. Hawkins. Multnomah Amateur Ath letic club hurdler, Sam Bellah, Mult nomah club pole vaulter and javelin thrower, Walter McClure. University of Oregon distance runner, and Ira Courtney, Seattle Athletic club sprinter, showed their wares. Clar ence Edmundson. of the Seattle Ath letic club, also was chosen to compete in the 400 and 800-meter races but was unable at .the last moment to make the trip. Murphy With Sextet. The sextet of northwestern men consists of Johnny Murphy, Multno mah club high jumper; Eldon Jenne, Washington State college pole vault er: Arthur M. Tuck, University of Or egon javelin tosser; A. R. "Gus" Pope. University of Washington discus thrower; William Kenneth Bartlett. University of Oregon discus thrower, and Leon L. Perrine, University of Idaho in the pentathlon. Another Ore gon boy to make the team is Johnpy Merchant, broad jumper, whose home is at Marshfield. Or., but who is claimed by San Francisco because of his attending the University of Cali fornia. Of the six men perhaps the most widely known is Murphy, holder of the national high jump title for the last two years. Murphy started his athletic career at the Columbia uni versity prep school, where he made a name for himself in local interschol- astic circles as an all-around athlete. After finishing at the local school he competed for the Multnomah club for some time before leaving for the east to attend the University of Notre Dame. In 1919, while competing for the Winged M club. Murphy won both the Pacific coast and northwest honors in the high jump. In the latter meet he established a new Pacific northwest record by clearing the bar at 6 feet 1 M inches. At the Pacific coast cham pionships, held at Tacoma, he bettered this mark by doing 6 feet 2V4 inches. Chances Are Excellent. It was in this same year that he got his first chance to perform in fast company when he was sent to the na tional championships at Franklin field. Philadelphia. In this meet he shattered the national record with a leap of 6 feet 3 Va inches. His latest achievement was 6 feet 44 inches. made in the National Amateur Ath letic union championships and Olym pic tryouts held at Cambridge re cently. Murphy's chances of taking the honors in the high jump in the pres ent .Olympic games are excellent con sidering tha fact that a leap of 6 feet S.98 inches, made by Alma W. Rich ards of Ogden, Utah, won the event at the games in 1912. Eldon Jenne, Washington State col lege pole vaulter, and present holder of the Pacific coast title, is also a fair performer in the high and broad jump. His best marks for the three events are 13 feet 1 '.A inches for the pole vault. 6 feet for the high jump and 21 feet 83 inches for the broad leap. Arthur Tuck of the University of Oregon, whose specialty is shooting the javelin, first broke into the lime light while attending Redmond high school when he single-handed carried off the state interscholastic cham pionship meet at Eugene. In those days Tuck was trying his hand with no small amount of success in several events, running the sprints, taking the Jumps, and competing in the weight events. After entering the university Tuck was taken in charge by Bill Hayward. who decided that hurling the Javelin was the Redmond lad's strong point and he put him to work with the spear. Best Mark 181 Feet. Tuck's best mark attained in the javelin throw was 1S1 feet made in 1919 when he won the Pacific coast title. In the same year he also es tablished a new national junior mark at Franklin field. Philadelphia, when he shot the spear 178 feet 4 hi inches. His work this year does not measure up to that of last season due to the fact that he has been troubled with a bad knee and his performance in the Olympic games will depend on whether or not he will be in the best of condition. With two discus throwers of the northwest in Gus Pope and Ken Bart lett on the team this section seems to be wl represented in this event. The two men appear to be practically on a par and have both proved themselves to be the class of the country in their event. Pope won both the Pacific coast and northwest titles in 1919. Bartlett won the event in the Pacific Coast Olympic tryouts at Pasadena, with Pope second and in the final try outs the order was reversed. Pope takinsr first and Bartlett second. Bartlett s best mark is 143 feet 3 inches, and the University of Wash ington husky has flicked the discus 146 feet 5 inches. First Game Will Bo Played Today Against Spanish Entry.
