The October Regatta.



The conference committees from the three Dis
trict boat clubs held meeting saturday night for
the purpose OF deciding the question OF eligibility
for the junior races at the fall yatta. The main
point discussed st this meeting was whether the
single sheiirace on the Potomac last year. as
the kmball race, should be considered match race
or On open race. A committee, composed OF Davis,
Columbia: Pairo. Analostan, ana wheatley, Poo
mae, was appointed TO consider the matter an1 re-
port at the meeting or the conference committees
t. be held Wednesday evening. II this race is de-
cded IN open race, all tho contestants I'm IL viii be
considered senior scuers, and consequently senior
sweep oarsinen. The question OF what constitutes
a junior oarSman. in distinction from a sculler,
viii doubtless be considered ut the meeting en-
Wednesday. Although IL was decided from the
hr>t to have the races at the fall regatta rowef in
strict accordance with the rules Of the National
Amateur Association, there still exists a misun-
derstan3ing or a misinterpretation OF the rules
among some OF the boating men, which viii have
to be settled definitely before any further steps
can be taken as to the selection OF the crews fer
the different boats
WHAT CONSTITUTES A JUNIOR oAESMAN:-CoNFIIcT-
ING OPINIONS.
Regarding the question OF junior and senior oars
men, two letters have been recently received by
different persons in this city from Mr.. Slunier the
secretary of the National Amateur Association.
By comparing the two letters it has been found
that they are directly opposed 60 each other upon
the question as to what constitutes junior oars
man. In one letter MI Sdunier says that junior
odio, - oliS "ho hs'' never uetH Wlhhtr ia amy
race except match race. In the other he takes
the ground that junior oarsnan is one who has
never been winner in junior race, and who has
never contested in an open race.
The misunderstanding which has arisen among
our District boating men WAS caused by these two
letters. As II was origin lily decided that the fail
regatta should be held in accordance vita the
rules or the amateur association. the question IN
dispute can only be settled by decision from the
executive committee OF that association.
A letter Was written to Mr. Sanncr to-day, ask
ing him 10 clear up the apparent discrepancy, and
an answer IS expected before the meeting OK the
committees on Wednesday, so that there need he
no further doubt tie question. The rule
defining sculerS is separate from that applied to
Oar5men, and there Is no misunderstanding re-
garlilg it. senior ScullcT is necessarily senior
oarsman. but senior oarsInan is not neces sariiy
