Harvard'and 9 Tiger Crews in Oar Race Crew Event May Help Restore Athletic Relations Between Rivals. BY FRAHK GETTY United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 2—With Yale oarsmen in a nearby shell, carrying on in the role of peacemakers, the 150-pound crews of Harvard and Princeton will race at Derby, Conn., in a regatta arranged for May 19, 1928. This is news of tremendous importance to the college world and escpecially to alumni and undergraduates of the two universities, ■which severed athletic relations a year ago. Strenuous denials come from Cambridge and Princeton that this race next spring constitutes resump- 1 tion of those relations. Those interested in maintaining the breach can deny all they please, however, but when the race is over, the breach will have been closed by a couple of miles of sporting endeavor. A Harvard crew is going to row against a Princeton crew on the River Thames in May, and any ostrich-like declarations to the contrary cannot hide the fact that the peacemakers at Yale have contributed another good lick to the cause. Sooner or later, Harvard and Princeton will be lining up for football and other dual sports again.

Main Go Event at Armory Falls Below Standard Tuesday night’s Legion fistic show at the Armory wound up in a fizzle. Captain Clark, matchmaker, got some bad breaks in arranging his card, was forced to use substitutes and as a result the show was far below standard. Jimmy Deering, Sedalia, Mo., substitute for Meyer Grace, who developed a nose infection, won a shade over Johnny Tillman, St. Paul veteran, in the dull and uninteresting ten-round main-go. Tillman was old and fat while Deering looked crude. Dudley Ring, Cincinnati, defeated Irving Goldberg, Brooklyn, in a halfway tame eight-round semi-windup.

was so pushed by the Georgetown runner he set a new record for that distance. Thompson made the 250 yards in Paddock’s old time. A broken ankle ’kept Thompson from pursuing his track ambitions, but did not prevent him from getting himself a regular job on the football team. He has been a

NEW HUP SIX APPEALS TO EYE v Daring Use of Color Schemes Made Possible. New throughout and totally different in body appearance, style and lines from any previous motor car ever built by that organization, Hupmobile’s new 1928 Six, recently announced, went on display at the Baxter Company, local Hupmobile dealer, for the first time today. The car is the companion to the distinguished Hupmobile Eight.

This new 1928 Hupmobile Six reveals imposing and far-reaching improvements. In its appeal to the eye the new car differs vastly from anything that has preceded it. A new kinetic beauty has been fashioned into It, made possible, it is pointed or . because the whole car was designed as a single unit to a design harmony that compelled every part to be balanced with every other. Hupp designers spent more than a year fashioning its body lines. It is an entirely new car, not merely anew model, and of a design new to the entire industry. Models, including the five-passen-ger four-door sedan, five-passenger two-door sedan, four-passenger coupe, and custom equipped cars on display at Hupmobile sales agencies throughout the country. Their unusual body harmony has made a more daring and more widely divergent use of color schemes possible than perhaps has ever been permissable on any othre car.

Tail Light

By SWEDE SWANSON A Connecticut judge takes it upon himself officially to rebuke the rear seat driver. That’s all to our liking. But in the same breath he might have directed his remarks to the other extreme and lashed the man at the wheel who seems to take less interest in the way the car is running than the passenger behind. There are far too many such drivers. They carry on heated conversations with their hands, which should be gripping the steering wheel. They turn their heads when they should have their eyes forward. Their minds are on the conversation in the car rather than the traffic around them. Os course, a motorist needn’t ostracise himself from the party altogether. But it must be remembered that while the automobile is moving the main consideration is not the conversation in the car, but the traffic outside. It is quite an achievement to keep eyes and mind on traffic while an interesting argument is going on beside you. To attain this and cultivate it as a habit should be the primary purpose of every motorist. It assures safety. According to R. B. Stoeckel, motor vehicle commissioner at Hartford, the time is coming when there will be no auto parking in streets. Merchants, Stoeckel says, wou.d find it to their advantage if space in front of their stores would be free for prospective customers instead of being blocked by parked cars. A crude oil engine invented by C. E. Grayson, Australian engineer, is said to operate at a fraction of the fuel consumption of an ordinary engine. It operates on the £lan of a “constant pressure combustion cycle.” French department stores have a new department called “Stands d’Automobiles.” French motorists can now buy their cars, accessories and tires “over the counter,” through this department, which carries a full line of passenger cars and trucks. Carl Bauer, Cleveland motorcycle policeman, has invented a twodialed speedometer designed to check up on'complaining speedsters. One dial records the maximum speed and the other clocks the exact speed traveled over a certain distance. Maine Is First Maine leads all New England States in road mileage. The State has 20,765 miles of surfaced roads.
