MEDFORD MAIL1 TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, JUNE 17, 1934. 4 Golden Bear Oarsmen Flash First in Thrilling Varsity Regatta HUSKIES BEATEN BOSTON RALLY AT 2 3 UMPIRES SLATED AT FINISH AFTER WITH GREAT EASE E E Navy Only Eastern Crew To Make Showing And Press Washington For Second Place Western Boats Lead. ' Bf Edward J. Nell (AMOclatcd Preaa 8port Writer) PODOHKEEPSIF, M. T., June 18. (AP) Biding a flooding tide down tho calm Hudson, the mighty Oold. en Bears of California picked up the PnuahkeeDsle trail thla evening u- ' actly where they left off with the hlatorlo regatta of 1932 In atunnlng victory over ell of the finest varsity i eights In the intercollegiate rowing world. i .Like another Baer from California, : the other one Max, the now neavy ! weight champion, the Oolden Bears stalked a swift nvai irom ino rao- ' lfln coast, the Huskies of Wasning' i ton. through three long miles, caught them In the first half of the last mile, and went on to win going away by a full three quarters of a length. The old Hudson, capricious as the winds that swirl it from the snroua. lng hills, was In calm and grateful mood as the nistono regai, ' nrf liinfc rear for economic reasons. i resumed aitaln after only Its second lapse since the classlo meeting wss first organised in ibbo. mom one other break during ins ' vesrs. And the burly OaHfomlans, taking to placid water as gleefully as they have rough conditions In the pest, made It a brilliant occasion as 20, 000 lined the banks of the river under a steaming sun or watcned the classic of four mile rowing testa from the hundreds of pleasure craft llnlne the last stretch. Of all the five eastern crews, only one, a surprisingly strong twvy eight, was able to furnish the est any competition at all. Msnv of that far flung throng ad mlttedly In no position to argue with the Judges so close they could touch the crews thought Dick Walsh's mid shipmen had shot up in the final hundred yards to hit the finish line even with Washington lor secona Dlaoa. From the shore, In a line dead even with the finish, the prows seem ed to flash over the last mark sim ultaneously. But the Judges, aftor considerable debate, gave second place to wasn lngton, third to Navy, fourth to Cor nell, fifth to Pennsylvania, sixth to Syracuse and seventh to Columbia. The brilliance of California, the doggedneas of Washington, the re markably swift finish of a navy eight that looked as though It were Just starting to row these were the sparkling features of a race rowed remarkably true to form. Not content with plaolng one-two In the varsity, the west took two of the three races on the program when the tremendously Impressive Washington freshmen crew swept down the river to a ridiculously easy five length vlotory over Syracuse with Cornell less than a length farther back In third place. Pennsylvania fourth, Columbia fifth and Rutger, bit but crude newcomers to the re gatta, last. A fine looking Syracuse Junior varsity, with only one western eight, California, competing against four eastern crows, turned In a sparkling performance to win the second event, a three mile pull, and turn in the best composite showing of the east for the day. Navy provided the competition for Syracuse in the Junior varsity, fin ishing three quarter back In second place but with almost a length of open wster In front of the third crew, Cornell. California finished fourth and Columbia last. Despite perfect conditions, the times of the races were behind the records. Ky Ebrlght's California var alty came down the four miles In 10 minutes 44 seconds as compared with the record Its 1038 crew set at 10:34 4-5. Syracuse was timed In 18:40.8 for the three mile Junior varsity as compared with Navy's rec ord of 14:18 1-8 set la 1038. Even the Washington freshmen, steaming down In 10:80 for the two miles, couldn't touch the yearling record Cornell set at 0:11 8-8 In 1809.

(AP) Glenn Cunning ham of Kansas flung back ths chal lenge of his greatest foot-racing ri val, Bill Bonthron of Princeton, to day with a world record-shattering triumph on the letter's home grounds. In a dazzling burst of speed that left Bonthron struggling far in the rear, fully forty yards behind at the finish, Cunnlnghsm flashed home In the astounding tlma of 4 minutes, 8.7 seconds In the fastest mile ever run by man. The flying Kanssn, clipped nine. tenths of a second from the world record made little less than a year ago on the same cinder path by Jack Lovelock of Oxford and New Zealand. It also brought back to America the coveted one mile record for the first time since 1023, when Pavvo Nurml wined out Norman Taber's mark with a 4:10.4 performance. Lovelock's time last July was 4:07.8, and on that occasion, aa well as today, Bonthron was beaten. Cunningham's smashing triumph followed an equally brilliant world record half mile victory by "Blazing Ben" Eastman, the former Stanford filer, who capped the climax of his comeback by running away from the famous Indiana University runner, Charley Hornbostel, In the unprece dented time of 1 minute, 49.8 sec onds. Eastman, who only returned to competition this spring after nearly a year's absence from the track be cause of an injured leg muscle, ran a front race all the way to beat Hornbostel by five yards but the Hoosler also bettered all existing half mile records as he was clocked in 1:80.7. The big blonde Callfornlan, now wearing the oolore of the Olympic olub of Son Francisco, clipped more than a second off the unofflclol world record of 1 :80.0, sot by Dr. Otto Peltier of Germany In 1920. .. Jack Balding' Prospectors, fast nine from Prospect, the moun tain resort, are scheduled to Jour ney to the Jacksonville baseball field today, where they will meet the Miners In what promises to be a close and hotly contested game. It will be the first meeting of the two teams, although each has taken wins from other valley nines which Indi cate, on paper, that they are of about equal atrength.

TIRES TUBES NET TEAM TO WIN WIMBLEDON, Eng., June 16. (ff Plucky little Sarah Palfrey of Brook line, Mass., who learned her game from Mrs. George Wight man, donor of the International trophy emble matic of women's tennis supremacy, today proved the heroine of Ameri ca's successful defense of the coveted cup. The United States forces, on tle might of racquets wielded by Miss Palfrey and Helen Jacobs, rugged American champion and team leader, won four singles and one doubles of the seven matches played to retain possession of the trophy which 'las remained on American shores since 1931. All In all. Uncle Sam's girls have won eight of the 12 series. After trailing 1-3 In games In the final set, the lion-hearted Brookllne bomber came back to vanquish Mar garet (Peggy) Scriven, 4-6, 6-2, 0-6 In the deciding set of the series. Despite disappointment over the de feat of the British side, one that was considered by native experts as tho strongest team In years, a cheering crowd of 8,000 that filled Wimble don's stands gave Sarah a standing ovation which she will probably re member as long as she lives. Helen Jacobs in winning 6-4, 6-4 also played magnificent tennis against Dorothy Round, England's crack No. 1 player, as she shared the honors with Miss Palfrey, each winning their second straight singles assignment, but it was Sarah's remarkable recov ery that fired the crowd's imagina tion. The lone American casualty today was Carolin Babcock of Los Angeles, although she played good tennis, she tired rapidly after the first set and lost to Miss Nuthall, 5-7, 6-3, 6-4.
