They have it In them aa the Cornell crewa have had It In them In the paat. My men are all fit.” "Jim" Teneyck, of Syracuse: "I am not saying anything. Th* race will apeak for Itself. The men are ready to give up the best that Is In them." "Andy" O'Dea, of Wisconsin; "All my -men .are trained fp that they will do their beat. I shall have nothing to say after the race, however It mAy go, but I may say that Georgetown will bear watching." Jasper T. Goodwin, of Columbia: "1 prefer not to aay anything as to what I expect. Of course I expect to win. That, I guess, is all there la-to be said anyhow." "Alec” Ward, of Pennsylvania: "No, there isjiothlng to be said now. There are the men. They are waiting to do their best." Coach Dempsey, of Georgetown: "Yes, I understand that Georgetown has been called the 'dark horse/ Well, maybe they are. 1 certainly expect them to_wln."

Varloua attempte were nude to ea- taldtah an Intercollegiate regatta that wonld be worthy of the name aa far baek aa 1(76, but wltb little aueeeaa, and It waa not until 1896 that the preaent Intercollegl at# association assumed control and the races on the Hudson began to attract gen eral Interest throughout the country. Since that time Cornell and tbs University of Pennsylvania, with Syracuse In 1904, bare divided among them the honor of winning the -vanity eight-oared rare. The Red and White crewa have crossed the line whiners six times, while the Quakers have led the way In three races and Syracuse In one. All these racea were rowed over the Hudson rirer course, with the exception of the 1898 race, which was a three-mile contest anil waa held on Saratoga lake.

Keene hna not yet decided what dlapoaltlon ahull l» made of the liody of Syaonby, which la buried near the stables at Rheepshead Hay which -for two years nheltered the. race horse. Friends of Mr. Keene say, however that ha probably will have the skeleton of the bora* mounted and preaent It to the American Mnsenm of Natural History 61 r.

Might eaallj lie worse. That iwo-hlt game gives Harley the best showing of the trip along that line. Zeller pitched the next best game— a three-hit hcmsIoii against New Orleans.

Aud If the loom I* lu shape It ought to be. At lanta 1s certainly stout wheu It cornea to playlug the game In Atlanta. Jordan was the only man who made as rnauy ns two hits Friday. The only’ meu who did not make os many aa oue were Htlnson aud'llarley. With Otto Jordau back In the game, Htlu- »n lu the field and Billy Hmlth back on the bench things In the Atlanta line up look more settled and home like. In addition to pitching a two-hit game, Harley was steady ns a clock aud gave only one base on balls. Four double plays In Friday’s game. Pret- ty good for a couple of disorganised teams. Hcorgte Sugg* won nnothcr game. Friday he ticat Montgomery 3 to L Errors on the port of th© rilmhcrs enabled the Bluffers to gst away with the victory. Old Brcltenateln Is a wonder.

Bill Phillips played in ihe field. Jake Ata may not l« allowed to play with New Orleans, bat at least he can umpire And he did It again nt New Orleans Friday.

It still - looks aa though .Manager Mul- laney of Montgomery DID nneartb a "lire ball," and that he still, has It In his pos session. Here's hoping, for It wB^mak* valuable evidence, for Atlanta In her case against New Orleans. Shreveport fans seem to be going back to the Class E league tactics from which they seemed to hate reformed of late. Friday they tried to mob Buckley, or at any rate, hammered him with cushions. Respectable people ought to be ashamed of such behavior. Bernstein, a new umpire, made his debut at Hbrevepoft* hla home, Friday. lie did satisfactory work. It took^ Boston twelve Innings to beat Philadelphia Friday.
