College Athletes at the Worcerter Regatta.

In accordance with a recent movement President Barry of the New England Amateur Rowing Associatlon has announced his purpose of securing the entry of an eight from either Columbia or Cornell to compete in the amateur regetta to be held at Worcester June 17. The apparent object is to defeat the well known Bradford crew, and in view of this, a well known oarsman has said:

"The first regatta of the association held on the Charles demonstrated what chance eight working boys had against the same number of college athletes who are in their boat as soon as the ice leaves the water. Take Cornell, for instance; their crew is trained by Courtney, a professional. Should they come to our regatta, they would be in grand form through long practice, while such crews as the Shawmut, Columbian, City Point, Crescent and Bradford clubs can marshall, will have been lucky to have had two weeks practice as a crew."

Considering the disadvantages which attend the work of such a crew as the Bradford eight, it is highly probable that the efforts to counteract President Barry's intentions will be successful.
