Racquet and Tennis Club defeated
Harry Thompson, professional at
the Boston Tennis and Racquet'
Club, yesterday in a special exhi-
bition court tennis match at the,
New York Racquet -and Tennis
Club. The score was 8-7, ,-6.
As the figures indicate, there was
little to chodse between the two.
Both played a 'beautiful'floor game,
and it was unusually noteworthy
that each used the railroad, side-
wall and twist service. In the open-
ing set Thompson led at 5-3, only
to see his advantage wiped out as
Johnson staged, a thrilling rally:
and laid down the most difficult
chases.'

OAKLAND, Cal., April 13.-Pull-
ing far ahead of their Northern'
rivals with a terrific pace, the'
world champion University of Cali- "
fornia crew decisively defeated theI
Univeisity of Washington eight by
five and one-half lengths in their
annual three-mile race on. the1
estuary.
The Bear crew, including seven of
the nine veterans that swept to tent
consecutive victories and the
Olympic championship last year,
defeated the Northerners in a sur-
prisingly easy manner. They went:
into the lead at the start with al
powerful sprint and continued tol
pull -ahead for the 'remainder of
the race.
Steadily -Increases Lead
At the half-way mark, they led.
by two and a -half lengths. About
a mile from the finish the Bears
had increased the lead to four
lengths. Two hundred yards from
the end they were four and a half
lengths ahead and this advantage
was increased to five and a half'
with a great driving finish. I
The official time was 15:14, which]
is five seconds slower than the!
course record that was set by'
Washington in 1923. The varsity
race was the third on the regatta
program.
The Huskie Jayvees rowed their
-three miles in 15:45, officially
smashing the mark of 16:26 2-5 set]

annual Boston marathon to be run
April 19.
"My legs haven't responded as:

as if we veterans would be strong
enough to hold our own for this
year at least."
The veteran's record for the Bos-

,DARTIMO-UTH VICTORB
OVERHYALEINE,5
(Special To The Daily)
NEW HAVEN, Conn., April 13.
Yale suffered its first baseball re-
verse of' the season when Dart-
mouth triumphed by 5 to ' 2 before
a crowd of 200 persons who shiver-
ed through nine innings of near{
freezing temperature. A light snow
also fell. The game was the first
of the season here. {
As Yale returned only three days
ago from an Easter trip in which
rive straight victories and no de-
feats were recorded, today's set-I
back came almost without warn-
ing. Pitcher Hollstrom held Yale
safe at all stages, although handi-
capped by unsteady support, be-
cause of the frigid temperature.
Yale's five hits were scattered
through successive innings except
in the third, when two were clus,
tered for the first Eli tally. Yale's
second score in the ninth was theI
product of an erratic throw of]
Hollstrom in handling McKenzie's
bunt, and a pass.
Ogden Miller was hit hard by
Dartmouth in the first, when the
visitors scored three runs. Failure
o'f McKenzie and Grove to coordi-
nate in handling an easy fly from
,Booma's bat in this inning allowed
the ball to drop between them while
Rolfe and Walsh raced home.

First Day Of Training Brings Out
Forty Men, As Many More
Bid For Uniorms
THREE VETERANS REPORT
With about 150 men expected to
report for the annual spring foot-
ball practice, Coach Tad Wieman
has outlined a stiff program .of
workouts for his grid hopefulls.
Drills in individual fundamentals
such as blocking and tackling will
keep the Varsity aspirants busy for
the first period of the training
session, while team work will take
up the later sessions with several
games scheduled to be played dur-
ing the last week of work.
This program will follow that run
off last year in the major details,
but the coaches will have their
eyes open for men to fill the posi-
tions left open by graduation.'
Coach Wieman stated yesterday
that he would be. particularly on-
I the lookout for a quarterback who
can call the right plays at the right
time, while the tackle positions,1
left vacant by the graduation of
Pommerening, Cragin, and Squier
will have to be filled by new men
who did not play last year.
Reserve Punter Needed
A reserve punter to understudy
Simrall is needed badly, and Coach
Wieman hopes to discover one dur-
ing the spring drills. Every man
who won an award of any kind in
football last fall has been invited
to work out under the Varsity
coaches, including men from the
"A," "B," freshman, sophomore,
and Physical Education teams. In
addition, the Wolverine mentor an-
nounced that every man on the
campus who wished to try out for
the team was urged to come out.
i Each man will get individual in-
struction, 'which would be impos-
sible in the fall, and any one who
reports will be given a chance to
show his ability.
Three coaches 4vill give all of
their time to this pre-season train-
ing, Cliff Keen and Cappon being
scheduled to help Head-coach Wie-
man all during the practice period,
while coaches Oosterbaan, Veenker,
and Courtwright Will divide their
time between the grid game and
spring sports. Athletic director
Fielding H. Yost is expected to
spend some time on the scene of
activity, appearing yesterday after-
I noon for the first time. George
'Rich, ex-captain, and Miller, who,
played in 1927 appeared yesterday
to give the new men the benefit of
their experience, and will probably
help the coaches during the en-
tire training period.
Full Squad To Report
Due to the number of men who
applied for uniforms yesterday the:
work of handing them out was
exceptionally slow, and only about
forty men were able to report for
work, but the coaches expect the
full squad to be out and ready for
hard drill tonight. Only Bovardi,
Poe, and Simrall of last year's let-
termen were in uniform yesterday,,
but all of those players from last
year's team who are not trying for
some other sport will be out as soon
as possible.
The second two week's of the
spring practide will be devoted to
team play in which those men who
'have been in the most regular at-
tendance will be used. The series
of games which will take up the
last week of work has in the past
usually decided the winner of the
Chicago Alumni Trophy which is
annually presented to the indi-
vidual who shows the greatest pro-
ficiency in the spring drills, and
who is regarded as having the most
potential value as a Varsity play-
General Attitude Counts
In addition, the winner of this
trophy is picked from the large
group competing for it by his gen-
eral attitude during the training
period, as well as for the improve-
ment he shows at the end of the
drills over his form when he first
reported.
These games will form a relief
from the hard drills which Coach
Wieman has outlined for his men
the first two weeks, when he will
put the men through hard periods
of blocking, tackling,; line play,
" passing, and kicking.
