England, April 1.Oxford won from Cambridge in the annual eight oared race over the Putney course today. The dark blues were heavier and were the favorites. though Cambridge had the advantage of weather and position. Oxford led from the start and won by three lengths in 18 minutes 29 seconds, a record for the race.

The previous record KS 18 minutes, 47 seconds, made by Oxford in 1893 and duplicated by Cambridge in 1900. Today the course was almost ripple less. This was Oxford's thirty-seventh victory. Cambridge having won thirty In 1877 the race was a dead-hat. Last year Oxford, with a lead of three lengths, fintahed in twenty minutes and fourteen seconds.

The year before Oxford won by three and one-half lengths in nineteee minutes and fifty seconds. According to ele English practice, the time of the defeated crew was not taken. Excursion steamers flying the light and dark llitiea were packed with spectators, and the largest array of motor boats ever seen on the course followed the course of the shells. There waif a great turn out of old oarsmen. The Prince of Wales and Prince Albert in cadet uniforms followed the race in a motor boat.

In less than a fortnight they are off beneath the big tent The Ides of April are almost upon us again with the long grind started that carries Into mid-October for the annual emblem of baildom's glory. The advance prospectus of the National league offers a line of interesting controversy and spicy dope. The American league offers Philadelphia against the rest of the field with C. Mack's Athletics six to five; favorites.

Baseball Is full of queer turns and manifold kinks but, if any rival contingent noses out Mr. Mack's people this fall the dope will be in for one of the most terrific jolts. You can't always tell in this pastime but In so far as the advance stuff is concerned there is no way of blocking: the Athletics from the top, liarring an I avalanche of Injuries and mishaps. With the same brand of people which the Cubs used for their famous! start In 1906, Mack's outlay looks good' enough for 1911 corquest and a healthy oracle at 19112. They are there teem every angle 'of the game and better --stillthey are just getting under good headway.

They have the youth, the speed, the ability, the the experience, and the confidence. If there is anything In the garnet they haven't got. the same isn't down on the bill of fare. They have pitchers who can pitch, fielders who can field, batters who can lam the pill and the organization always in vogue under Mr. Mack's supervision, in other words they have the eminently correct and stuff and wPat is more to the point they RACE HORSE GIVES WAY "HO THE FRIENDLY COW' Gaillard Hunt, of Washington, chief 1 of the passport bureau of the department of state, will arrive in this city Sunday.

B. liaggin, of New York, according tp announcements made here today. Not only is Mr.

Haggin to stop racing but he is also about to sell his entire breeding establishment and give the big farm over to the production of milk, cream and butter. This is a severe blow to racing in Kentucky, as Elmendorf has been the mcst extensive plant of its kind in Kentucky. Two years ago Elmdorf stud consisted of 1,200 horses. but since the anti-betting bills were passed in New York. Hagen has been selling his animals.

Chase can with Ford, Vaughn, Quinn, IN arhop, Aides and others but in other respects his people are about on a par with New York and as a leader he has all the edge Over Chasevia the advance dope. For Jennings has been there and Chase is but on the way. Boston, Cleveland and Chicago. Boston, Cleveland and Chicago. Here are the three great uncertanties of the American league.

Either one of the trio is liable to jump towards the front and stick with the leadera All three are liable to be big disappointments and drop behind. Boston doesn't loqkk any better than last year. Chicago lohks fifty percent better and Cleveland Is bound to show improvement with the addition of Joe Jackson- to the poling department and a group of youngsters that look above the average. But Boston had a good bit more to build upon and Icoks the most dependable of the three. Chicago, with a better start and! Walsh, White and others in the box, may prove to be the big sensation of I the year.

So many changes have beer Trade in the Sox line up since April of 1910 that any forecast is only the! rarest brsuld of guessing. It's a certainty that Comiskey's team is vastly stronger, but whether the improvement vvill be only sufficient to lift the Sox out of the rut or will be great enough to shoot them forward as real contenders is another wrangle. The additions of Lord, McConnell, Callahan and others over the 1910 gateway with better starting condition and a much better looking pitching staff, makes the Chicago end of it look formidable at least Either Boston or Chicago has a chance to finish second. These two, placed by the dope, are but a trifle back of New York and Detroit. Cleveland, with so many youngsters and an uncertain pitching corps, is more of a guess than either.

The Naps may fight their way into fourth place, 'or even third; or may find It tough sleddingto keep away from the bungalow swung from the sixth rung of the dizzy ladder. Cleveland can still hit with any of them and can field up to a Winning standards but the power of their pitchers and the effectiveness of their team play may yank the Naps luck. Down at the Foot. Jusf how Washington can figure up-OTT quitting seventh place or St. Louis upon moving out of the subway is a guess.

The Nationals, even with Johnson, can hardly bank upon any station above sixth place. If one of the upper delegation recounted breaks up and tumbles. McAleer company may sing into the gap. But there looks to be no way to figure them better than sixth, stretch the dope as you will. They may travel faster on the ball field than upon copy paper and furnish the talent a surprise, but just at present this is exclusively a copy paper struggle to the death.

A meeting of the eiecutive committee of the Knox vounty Berry and Truck Growers' association was held this morning at 11 o'clock, when much routine business was transacted and plans for the coming year welt, discussed. From the present outlook the berry crops will be fairy good this season despite the fact that some early berries were killed by the freeze of March lii. The recent weather has not injured the crop very materially. The "Aroma," which is the principal strawberry grown in this section, is not damaged. The vines are in a very healthful and it is thought that earl yberries will put forth new bloo and yet bear a good ti crop, althoug they will be several days late.

Talk on Berry Culture. The quarterly meeting of the Strawberry and Producers' association of 1 Knox county was held this morning at 10 o'clock, in the Market ball. Several members of the association, who are taken as authority on the growing of strawberries, made impromptu talks. weral new members were received Into the association and renewals were made. Several acres were added to acreage of the association by the admission of the new members.

Chas. Coleman, inspector of the association, made a very Interesting talk, explitining to the growers' of the association the necessity of careful packing, in order that their berries may. when shipped. reach their destination in good condition, He also requested that eech grower carefully estimate his crop for the coming season and turn their estimates into the secretary at the next meeting in order that the dealer who receives the contract for sui plies may be able to the necessary amount on hand. He also requested that the members order immeOietely what supplies they think they will use so that they can make up crates and hold them in readiness.

It, was suggested by the secretary, J. M. Jett, of the association that next yeer each berry grower set aside one acre of land, to be used in growing corn, and that each farmer report the progress of his acre of corn at each treoting and to study the best meth-eels of growing this product. In this manner the association hopea to interest farmers in its work. About this time of the year it is necesearv for the truck rowers to purchase corn to feed their stock and this acre of corn accol ding to Secretary Jett is thought to, be a plan to eliminate this drain on the truck growers savings.

BROOKLYN SUPERBAS TO ATTEND BIJOU TONIGHT Manager Fred Martin, of the Wells' Bijou theater, has invited the members of the Brooklyn National league blseball league now in the city, to be his guests at 'the theater tonight.

"Catnille" is the play. The invitation has been accepted and the ball tossers will occupy boxes. i Fight For Second Place. The main scrap seems to center around second place where New York and Detroit have the call. But Boston, Cleveland or Chicago have much better show of moving from the third group into the second than New York or Detroit have of pushing their NvaN into the first.

The dividing line separating the second and third groups isn't thick in any spot for while New York and Detroit have the edge, should either slip its a pure maple cinch that from Boston, Cleveland and Chicago at least one club will be on deck to jump into the gap and pick up the going. New York's show to finish second centers almost exclusively around Hal Chase's ability to lead his people in the right way. The Yanks have the material to be close up but it isn't, often in the run of the game that a great ball player also figures beneath the double spotlight as a great manager. Frank Chance, Felder Jones and Fred Clarke have qualified but Chase has yet to show. Should the young first sacker show genius in leading his people out the winning way he will be an exception and better still will have the best chance Of any contender to nose out Mack.

The Yanks up strong in the battery zitd outfield department with at least 8.4 capable unfleld. They are fast and should hit. With the right sort of organization they should be there. -Othenyise they will have a tot gh time ending in theF first- division. Detroit's Case.J' Jennings and his Tigers-.

Crawford and Mullin it doesn't look as if he had the stuff. The best he can hope for is a battle with New York for second place, or in the event of Chase failing as a leader, to fight back Boston. Chicago or Cleveland.

Jennings hasn't the sitibmen to cope with Mack as it stands today. George Mullin is his only dependable winner. The others may round to and pitch good ball hitt they must improve upon 1910. Lack of harmony in ranks was another disturbing factor last fall and this to must be eliminated. Jennings hasn't the pitching force I leaveland to co slbinen pe ds today.
