The proposition to send the Hillsiale four

meeting with general favor. communication
in the New York Herald from ..Analostan.m of
this city, says: II beg space to make a sugges-
ton on behalf of the amateur rowing interests
OF the country. Ii is that the famous HisdaIe
four. who are unquestionably the fastest four
amateur or professional in America. be sent to
England and entered i'm the next Henley regatta
and thus brought into competition with the
best English crews. Ii must be admitted that
the amateur oarsmen of the United States stand
in need of vindcation in foreign waters. i'm view
OF the unfortunate experience of the Cornell
and ShOe-wae-cae- mette fours abroad. and that
the gallant Hillsdales could win this vindication
there can be but little doubt" Mr. Terwiiliper
captain of the four, is quoted as saving that
with such rig as they want which they have
never yet had. they can safely count upon a rec
ord at least fifteen seconds better than the best
thus far made.
