Crimson Varsity Has Chance in Big Event. Regatta Course, New London, June 19 iA) Yale eight-oared crews swept the Thames Hirer this morning in the annual crew- classic with Harvard. The Blue freshmen led the Crimson home over a two-mile course by three lengths, and the junior 'varsity of Yale ran away from Harvard's sec ond crew, finishing four lengths in front. In each race, the Crimson got away well and fought fiercely for the first mile, but Yale possessed the power and reserve to win. The Harvard freshmen, stroked by J.

Watts of Morristown, N. looked like a winner at the start from Bartlott's Cove. The crew caught the stroke more quickly than their Blue rivals, and were off in front at a high beat. Yale re covered speedily, and for the first mile it was bow and bow. but grad ually xalc drew away.

They picked up a length, foot by foot, and In the third halt mile open water showed between the shells. The rest was a runaway, Yale finishing three lengths to the good. Th etime was: Yale, Harvard. 10:01. Huns Away With Junior.

The junior varsity race was in many respects a repetition of the first event. At the start Harvard, rowing a high stroke, pulled away, the crew rowing splendidly together. Their advantage was half a length in the first half-mile, but on.n. more Yale's slower, more powerful stroke told quickly. At the mile the Kliie eight was a length ahead and gradually gained, when at the finish Yale led by four lengths.

The lime: Yale. Harvard. In both races Harvard used a stroke similar to that ot the Yale (Continued On Page 2.)

CHEER HYLAN 0. 0 BOARDWALK ROCKAWAYS Italian Princess Will Wed Hessian and Another Dream About Wales Is Shattered Way After Alleged Sixth Victim Dies.

Orange, N. .1., June 19 W) Miss Leona Young, Health Officer of the Oranges, today announced that the United States Department of Labor, at the request of the Consumers League of New Jersey, had begun a probe Into the death of a number of workers In the United States Radium Corporation plant. Application for a Federal probe was made, she said, because of the league's dissatisfaction with the In vestigation which the State Department of Labor has been carrying on for two years. The inquiry of County Physician Martland, of Newark, into what he believes may be a. new form of Industrial poisoning in luminous radium paint factories, received additional impetus when H.

V. Hoach, head of the Jersey City office of the State Department Labor, indicated the State would co operate. The inquiry was determined upon yesterday after Dr. Martland had made an autopsy on the body ot Sarah T. Maillefer.

of 174 Main East Orange, for seven years an employe of the United States Radium Corporation in Mrs. Maillefer died yesterday in St. Mary's Hospital of a "pernicious type of anemia similar. Dr. Mart-land said, to that which caused the death on June 7 of Dr.

Edwin E. Leman, chief chemist of the corporation. Dr. Martland also performed the autopsy on Dr. Leman's body.

Linked With Other Deaths. "Tire circumstances ot the two deaths were so Dr. Mart-land said today, "that I decided upon a careful inquiry. Furthermore, Mrs. Maillefer's sister, Miss Majorle Carlough.

who worked with her, painting watch dials with 'luminous paint' at the Radium Corporation's plant, is now suffering in the same way. "I have also learned that within the past two or three years there were at least four othor deaths from what seems to be the same cause. "Of course. I have nothing more than my suspicions now. We are going to take the bones and some of the organs of Mrs.

Maillefer body-reduce them to ashes and make ex tensive laboratory tests with the most delicate instruments available for radio-active substances. I am not go ing to make the statement that com mercial 'radium poisoning' actually exists, however, until I Can prove It. "If my suspicions are correct, this poisoning Is so Insidious and sometimes takes so long to manifest Itself that I think it possible it has been going on for a lorg time throughout the country without being discovered." Dr. Martland said that six weeks or two months would be necessary to complete his Investigation. I Another of the royal princesses who have been mentioned from time to time as prospective fiancee of the Prince of Wales has become engaged, according to a Home dispatch, which reports the botrothal of Mafalda, second daughter of the Italian King and Queen, to Prince Philip ot Hesse, says the Associated Press.

Mafalda, an attractive girl of many social accomplishments, is 22 years old, while her reported fiance Is 30. Prince Philip Is a son of Prince Frederick Carl of Hesse. His mother. Princess Margaret, is the youngest sister of the former German Kaiser. Princess Mafalda's name was linked with that of the Prince of Wales when she visited London with her royal parents about a year ago.

Wales on that ocaslon accompanied her In public and was said to nave been very attentive to her. She was also at one time, late In 1923. reported about to become engaged to Prince Leopold of Belgium, but later It was stated, though not confirmed, that her aister, Giovanni, was the one selected for the Belgian Crown Prince. Prince Philip, the reportedly successful suitor, is said to have been In love with Mufalda for several years. His suit Is declared to have been opposed by the Italian royal family on the ground of difference in religious hellefs.

Special dispatches last month, however, said this opposition bad been overcome through the good offices of Mafalda's elder sister.

Muller, with a smile of relief upon his face, shook hands happily with the attorneys who had been assigned to him, former L. S. Attorney William 'Hayward and James Marshall before he was led awav to his cell. The leniency extended to the slaver was recommended by Assistant District Attorney Benedict Dineen who said that District Attorney Joab Banton had indorsed the recommendation. Muller shot Leeming to death on June 5 in the entrance to the eleva tor in Leeming's office building, 13u William Manhattan.

The murderer, when he was arrested as he fled from the scene of the shooting, told the police that he had been blackmailing the wealthy Erooklyn-ite for some time. He said that he shot his victim when Leemtng refused to pay any further attention to his demands for money. Assistant District Attorney Dineen in court today explained the recommendation for the acceptance of the plea for a lesser degree of crime on the basis that the prosecution would find it exceedingly difficult to prove premeditation, which is one ot the necessary factors involved In a first decree The decision of the District Attorney to recommend acceptance of Muller's plea came after a consulta tion with Dwight A. Austin, Leem ing's business partner, who represented the Leeming family In the negotiations. Austin this afternoon said mat the pka had' been accepted with the full consent of the Leeming family.

"1 had a talk with the Dlstric Attornev." he declared, "and he ex plained to me the difficulty ot es tablishing premeditation. It seemed to me that premeditation would be difficult to piove in view of the fact that no one saw the men in any al tercation before tho murder. Feared Iessor Verdict.

June 19 lP) The Social Demokraten publishes a report from Oslo, the Norwegian capital, sUV'ing that Capt. Ftonld Amundsen, who returned to Bpitzbergen yesterday after his sensational Arctic flight, is dissatisfied with the results attained end is 'qulto determined to resume the attempt to reach the pole." The explorer Is quoted as declaring that the experience gained In his present effort would enable, him to attain his goal. The other members of the expedition, the account continues, appear equally animated by a desire to beat the aerial polar expeditions planned by other countries. They expressed the view that imporiant scientific results had been achieved thus far. Captain Amundsen was reticient.

Kllsuortli to Continue. Amundsen's comrades were unanimous In their appreciation ot his leadership. The American member of the party. Lincoln Ellsworth, was saddened by the news awaiting him of the death of his father In Italy during his stay In the North, but said that he would continue his financial backing of Captain Amundsen. The Norwegian Storthing, or Par liament, at lis opening session today also sent a telegram of thanks and congratulations to Amundsen, The message bade him welcome home, and thanked him for the courage and enemy he hud shown "for the benefit of m-lem-e and for the honor of our country."

The Aftenposten. commenting on the return to Hpltzbercen of Amund-en and his I'olar expeoltton, terms the flight the greatest, trout interesting and most adventurous that could have been made, for exploration of the unknown parts if the globe. According to the messages received, the paper says, he achieved scientific results beyond any attained by previous arctic exploration. The fact that the Pole was not reached the newspaper finds of little Importance, since the observations taken by the flier's exclude the possibility of finding land this side of the Pole. The Aftenposten expresses the thanks of the nation that Amundsen did not abandon his Intention to Hy to the Pole, but held fast to the Ideals and determinations of his youth.

"We have special praise and salutations also for the foreigners in the party, Lincoln Ellsworth, the American, and Karl Keucht, the German mechanician, both of whom risked their lives In the undertaking. We appreciate highly their contribution." the newspaper adds. pholils Peary's ItiKrt. The Tldens Tegn characterizes Amundsen's trip us "a dash for new knowledge," anil says Ha greatest achievement Is the fine example of endurance and will power established by the members of the expedition.
