Arrangements for the Great Festival Of
Oars mt Philadclphia-OAicial List OF
Entries-OAicers and Committees.
The Regatta Committee Of the Schuylkn Navy
having charge OF the arrangements for the great
festival OF oars at Philadelphia the 18th and 14th
inst. are working zcalously to perfect them, and
judging from the progress made there will be OBJ
served a commendable degree OF order and regu
larity during the several contests. Since the pub
lcaton Of the original list OF entries in the HERALD
there have been several changes, the most impor-
tant Of which those of the Quaker City and Uni
vcrsity Clubs OF Philadelphia for the fouroared
shell race ana that OF the Copper Club, OF Savannah
for the four shell and iOnr cared gig In
the double scu shell contest Selah ii. Clarke OF the
Undine Club, has taken the place Of William A.
Steel in the bow OF the Crescent Club entry, the
retiring gentleman being unable to row, from
an fndsposiiion from which he IL now
suffering. This is very unfortunate, as every boat
ing man in Philadelphia desired to see the genial
Steel Brothers measure blades with their only an
tagonists, Eben Losce and A. S. Swan, OF the Alta
lanta Club, of New York. The new shell built for
the Stees was sent them last week, and IS salts
factory to the men who have to pun it.
The Regatta Committee are seriously annoyed
over the amateur question, not from any lack OF
objections parties entered for the several races,
but from the fact that most Of the objections re-
ceived are marked "Conndential" written In
such u mysterious manner that they amount to
nothing. This IL particularly so with regard 10 the
entries from New York. Letter after letter sent to
the Secretary hint Mt many things, but the writer's
do not have the holiness TO object positively to
men whom they know are not strictly amateurs,
and at the same time give the committee to use the
information. This is wrong, but in spite OF the Oh
stacles IL is to be hoped the committee will succeed
i'm their laudabe Efforts to allow none but strictly
amateurs to compete.
The following Official list, giving corrected entries
al nd n mi a. n
tant committees that win act during the regatta,
has just been issued and is OF Interest,"
