(tV) Culumbia Is the Rem of the InUMTolloKiaU' m:pun after the roughest and most disastrous naval ltattlc in the history of the Polish -kcepsie regatta. Down through four turbulent miles lust evenhiK the sous of lit tle old Now York rowed to mag nificent triumph for the second time In three years, capturing the varsity championship of America. In their dazzling wake were strewn the shattered hopes of four of Co lumbia's eight rivals, chief among them the proud tl olden Hears of California, champions of the world until this fateful race. Old man river went on a ram page for the crowning classic of tiie 1129 rowing season, kicking up a disturbance that wrecked the fortunes of all but five of the rec ord fleet of nine eight-oared shells entered in the race for varsity championship honors. What was forecast as the great est of all college regattas was turn od into a knockdown and drag out battle with the oldnan, who spar ed neither champions, nor favor ites, nor trailers, as he swamped one boat after another. Columbia Supreme. Above all the turmoil, the trag edy and startling events of a dusky evening. Columbia stood out su preme, overcoming all obstacles to beat a gallant Washington crew by three lengths. The water-logged Huskies from the Pacific North west, as game a boatload ns ever rowed, yielded to the mastery of New York's marvelous oarsmen, but in turn they were eight lengths ahead of another surprise boat, Pennsylvania. The Quakers ramo up out of the choppy seas to beat Navy, as other era It sank. The middles saved- fourth place. "Wis consin was fifth and last.' Three of the four crows that were swamped met their downfall in the last mile, as Syracuse, then REFRESHING COOLNESS ORANGE PEKOE A Perfect blend of finest teas.

Guided smartly by Coxswain I tot he Herman and stroked beau tifully by ICS-pound Alastalr Mae Uuln. the Columbians proved them selves champions in every sense uf the word. l-jist Sweops llecalla. Out of the 19JI1 maelstrom, the east in general and New York state in particular, emerge with a sweep ing triumph, for .Syracuse's speedy freshmen won the opening two mile race, while Cornell's Junior varsity crew proved itself the best of the Jayvee lot in the most thrilling contest of the regatta. Not since 1920 have the three Institu tions been so supreme, that being the year Syracuse won the varsitv after Cornell cleaned up in the two preliminaries. Not since 1922 has the east been able to check the bronzed giants who havo come out of the far west to acoro one tri umph after another. Washington has won the Junior varsity race three times and the varsity classic three times, with California coming through for the far west In 192S. When California became water logged early in last night's rj.ee, it was Washington that came on to carry the far west's banner In gallant style. The Golden Bean, defending champions, were never better than fifth and never factors in the big race from the start until they finally sank, five-eights of a mile from the finish. Washington, after forcing a dizzy early pace with the Navy, atone dis puted the final mile with Colum bia, content In the first three miles to lay off the pace and bide its time. Probably these tactics by Colum bia were as decisive as the factor of the heavy seas, for the Colum bians had all the power nnrt d'v they needed for the big finish at & time when Washington, its own shell well filled with water, ap peared somewhat tired. From a margin of only s:x feet entering the third mile. Columbia increased its margin to three lengths ovor'tho Huskies.

Herb Grey Writes Entertainingly of Baseball and Scenic Beauties on Vacation Trip in California SAN FHANCIHCO. War in weather has the Bay district in its grasp this week and even cold. foggy San Francisco is bathed in sunshine. It's vacation time and one of the news "boys" has left his stand at the Ferry building to take his family on an extended trip to various national parks on the coast. Some of the newsboys make as much money as the bank executives who buy their three cent "uxtries." Because of the warn weather, a large crowd turned out Thursday to see the Seals win from tho Mis sions by a 6 to 4 score. It was an enthusiastic crowd, too, that watch ed a comparatively lfsXless Mission team bow to its rival San Fran cisco club. It looks down here as If the Oaks are lining up for the coast pennant this season. Oakland has been playing some Breat baseball and has a team that seems to "click" when it's on the diamond. The Oaks have won 14 out of 15 games. Rum Arlett. the big boy who presides over the first bug. has been playing fine ball. Buzz bats both right and left hand ed and is a general utility man tor the Oaks. t . - . Fans who have enjoyed games on the Oakland hall park for the last several seasons, arc missing the feminine fan who furnishes much of their amusement. This plump I ri sh lady, 1 u calico d ress a n d crimson chapeau, was missing last week from her usual place In tho grandstand, behind home-plate. From this point of vantage she would deride tho umpire in a pow erful, piercing voice, spiced with plenty of slang, that could be heard throughout the Emeryville factory district. The owners of the Oakland club should give her a season ticket each year. She's a real drawing card. Finishing touches are now being tint on the pew five million dollar Fox .theater, on Market street, near San KranciNo's civic center. This new theater will surround its pst rons with every luxury, comfort and beauty known in the art of theater building and will be. ac cording tn the modest boast of Its builders, the world's finest theater. The new Fox will certainly have a long mark to aim at when It tries to eclipse in magnificence the fam ous Chinese theater of Hollywood. Its exterior, however, gives prom ise of much, and Hoy district theater-goers are eagerly seeking res ervations for tho opening performances. esque beauty. Tho new buildings, with red tile roofs and white, glis tening walls, are nestled in rolling hills, generously dotted with low hanging oaks. When landscapcrs have had their turn at St. Mary's It will be a real beauty spot. The rapid growth of Oakland is amazing! Literally hundreds of new factories are rising; towering buildings arc under construction in the downtown district and homes and apartment houses arc increas ing daily. It is interesting to know tjiat the new H. C Capwell "storewhich will open in Oakland soon, will be the largest department store in the west. It is owned by the stockholders of the Emporium of Kan Francisco. Other well known stores in San Francisco are looking to Oakland as a merchandising center and are planning branches lu that city. On Thursday afternoon 23 boats of the Pacific fleet steamed through the smooth, glistening waters of the Oolden atc and caino to anchor In San Francisco bay. Five battleships. 17. destroy ers and a largo naval tender made an impressive spectacle as they en tered tho bay. It Is a peaceful, pleasant life for the "gobs" these days and from appearances navy life agrees with them. It's the rum-running crews that are being overworked down here those days. The new Kan Francisco bridge, across lower San Francisco bay, is the longest bridge In the world and the motorist who uses It as a short cut around tho bay, can not help but marvel at this en gineering achievement.
