The Silent Coach By QUIN HALL. ITH the Annual Championship Regatta at Poughkeepsie set for today and with the annual puU la tween Yah; aud Harvard, two of tho strongest crews in tho East billed for Friday, on the Thames at Now London, a wit might well refer to this week a "scullery in the East. While event on tile Hudson will bring together some of the outstanding crows of tho country and, as always, will create a heap of excitement among rowing fans, tho pull later in the week will still attract its quota of attention. This thing between Yale and Harvard, you know, has been going on for years and years, in fact tho event has whiskers reaching down to tho ground but it has grown more popular every year until now it is almost Impossible to buy a hot dog in New London the day of tho event and New London i1 cjuite a city with plenty of food available on ordinary days. Yule and battle for shell MUpremaey began away back in 1852 and despite the fuct that Eli has won the event for seven years straight, Harvard item to get discouraged.

Every rowing fan in the country knows how suoccasful Ed Leader, the silent Yale coach, has been since he crawled out of actual competition at the University of Washington and started telling the boys how to handle the sculls to win at Washington and later at Yale. In starts thus far this year tho Bulldog paddlers have demonstrated that Ed has another strong crew to toss in against Harvard when they square off next Friday. On early rating, oarsmen should win, hut Harvard, boasting the heaviest crow it has had for years, has also been exhibiting power and may cause an upset on the Thames. The Yale varsity showed its clast by winning the Blackwell Cup Regatta against Columbia and Pennsylvania and the Carnegie Cup Regatta against Cornell and Princeton. In the former arent this victory marked six straight wins for tho Leader crew.

Harvard has also fared well but the Crimson eight, generally admitted to he tho biggest boat load of oarsmen put together in college ranks for years, has been favored with rather light competition. However, Ed paddlers Copyright. King Otlurr I 3 pre- event and care. With have beaten Massachusetts Tech twice, Cornell, Pennsylvania and Navy, and must be ranked with tho United States Olympic prospects. Both crews have been well pared for the cornin have been trained wi no late injuries popping up, race should be one of the most interesting in years und the outcome, together with the results on tho Hudson late this afternoon, should furnish a good line on prospects.

The Olympic trials are scheduled to be held on the Schuylkill, early in July, and will create a lot of interest as it will bring together Yale or Harvard, or both, against the best performers at the Poughkeepsie Regatta. Coach Lender has his Yale Varsity eight pointed well for both of these pulls. A win at Now London should make the Yale men favorites in the July events. A Blue victory at Srhuykill should boost tho lf. S.

chances in the coming Olympics. And these wins would all mean added laurels for silent roach, and any rowing fan will tell you that Ed has not been ovedlooked when laurels were being distributed in the past.
