Crew HRHE California Varsity and Freshman crews were yesterday given their last time trial on the Oakland estuary before leaving for Poughkeepsie tomorrow. The showing made by the Coast champions was far from pleasing to Coach "Ky" Ebright. The Freshmen, 4 stroked by Holman, picked up th Varsity at the halfway mark and raced It out the last two miles but It was not much of a race as Nasr-ler's "Babes" won by five lengths and the Varsity waa not even close after the flrBt few atrokes. The combination crew picked the Var-ity up at the one mil mark and rowed the last three miles with them. Ebright gave his crew a four-length handicap and they had a two and a half length lead on the first crew at the finish but came In second as the Frosh were two lengths ahead of them.

The Showing of the Varsity was rot very encouraging. The oarsmen did not have a concentrated drive and they were not letting the boat run out. The spacing was fairly consistent but was poor. Those fellows will have to show more stuff than they did yesterday if they intend to beat Cornell and Columbia. They cannot go out the day of the regatta nd win the race by merely trying on that particular day.

Donlonand Ills mates started off well enougli yesterday. They got a beautiful racing start and settled down nicely. They had a tairly good swing the first mile but wlieri'they picked up the Jay Vces thejr seemed to shorten up.

The Beavers have announced the sale of Short stop George Wuestling to the Detroit Tigers and Infielder Jimmy Cronin to the Ath letics for immediate de livery despite the, fact that Portland has made a miserable showing in the league race. The Beavers have been losing money this year and the supposition is that President Tom Turner is trying to meet the payroll by peddling his, best athletes. But baseball men are trying to guess why a big league club buys a light hitting shortstop at this time of the year. Wuestling is hitting around 250 and finished last season with a hitting mark of only 269.

Turner says he will get two ball players and some cash for Wuestling, but the Detroit people assert that the deal was made on a strictly cash basis. The Philadelphia Athletics are financially Interested in the Portland club and naturally would have the first choice of the talent. Connie Mack never evinced any Interest In Wuestling. Jim Keesey, the Portland first baseman, is the best ball player on the club and it would not he surprising to hear his sale to a1 major league club before the close of the season. Keesey is about 25 years of age and is hitting 343.

Tho Beavers have been going haywire since the start of, the season. They have played poor baseball and the attendance lias been small, due to bad weather and worse playing. California clubs that have played In the northwest have iost money and It is rumored that Turner has to hustle to meet the overhead. To add to Turner's grief his manager. Bill Rogers, was taken sick yesterday and Leo Budde, his rookie shortstop, had to quit the game yesterday with a high fever.

Infielders Staley and Hlllls collided last week and are still under medical treatment in the north.

The tennis authorities have met and decided, not to interfere even though the change In tlio customs of stnid old Wimbledon lias caused much discussion. After a private discussion of tho affair yesterday, the governing committee Issued a brief communique in reference to "the nn urc and extent of clothing suitable to competitors," adding, "tho committee prefer to rely as heretofore on the good tasto and good sense of the players, whom the committee wish to reganl so far ns possible os their invited guests." The newspapers which huve been taking sides in the mutter now have taken two opposite views in regard to the results of this announcement, one lie lng "of course they will wcur stockings," the other, "of course 'they 'won't." It seems to be a certainty that ail masculine logs ill be covered by the conventional plain white flannels. WINS GOLF TKOI'HY.
