But by now, with Harvey, credited as being the best of the old world middleweights, unable to get by so unprepossessing a foeman as Jeby, the verdicts of the first two bouts here did not look so bad. The bout itself was not a wonder. Each battler scored his share of punches, but there was much clinching of which Harvey was chiefly guilty and much backward running in which department. Harvey exercised a monopoly. Jeby weighed 15714, and Harvey, 155. MOTORISTS FIRE SIREN TESTE!

Oxford was favored over its historic rival and needed a victory to tie Cambridge in the total number of triumphs. Most critics believed the dark blue boat possessed superior all-round strength and better material. Today, however, Oxford was not matched against an ordinary crew. Cambridge has been excellently timed in its oarsmanship and packs a great punch. The light blue eight awaited the crack of the starter’s pistol, hoping to make today’s race the eighth consecutive victory over Oxford. Cambridge has won eleven of the last twelve races. Only one since 1914, when Oxford was stroked in 1923 by Pussy Mellon, an alumnus of Cornell, has a Cambridge crew been forced to trail across the finish line.

From a business standpoint, however, it is evident the Indians would be overlooking something if they passed up May 29 to begin night action. At any rate. Secretary Clauer said today he was directing arrangements toward that end. The hard-working Johnny Corriden, Tribe pilot, faces four games in four days, beginning today, and his squad just is about below sea level insofar as physical condition is concerned. He planned to use Herman Holshouser and Leslie Barnhart on the mound this afternoon in the skirmish here with the Columbus American Association team, and on Sunday, against the same club, Corriden is puzzled over the problem of pitchers, for he desires to save Bill Burwell and George Smith to oppose the New York Yankees in Sarasota Monday, the day of the “big game” for this "training camp. The Yankees also will be met on Tuesday in a return tilt at St. Petersburg. Tribe hurlers lagging in condition are Mulrooney and Boone, with bad arms; Hall, who is ill. and Cvengros, also below par in health.

There was no scalp laceration, however, and trainer Pierce said the youngster would be ready for action again in short order Vornholt has pitched in batterv drill to display his best form of spring, and got knocked down only a short time after Manager Corriden and others had commended him for his improvement in the box.

All of which makes it hard going for Manager Corriden, whose squad is small compared with other league teams training in this territory. Jack Hendricks went to Ft. Myers Friday to watch the came between Cincr Reds and Philadelphia Athletics and to confer with both bi? league clubs In an effort to obtain new talent for the Indians. He re turned with no news to report, hut it is rumored the Reds may make an offer for Oliie Tucker, the outfielder who is holdinir out on the Indians. The Reds are nn aeainst It for fly chasers and are beinr panned throughout Florida for reieasinr Curt Walker, who now is the blc *un with the Indians.
