University and the Potomacs. the latter

tion to participate, which they gladly
awaited themselves of in order to get in
shape for the university race at Pough-
keepSie, July 2. In the race between the
varsity and the junior Potomacs the
chances decidedly with the college
boys, but in the second races things are
about even up.
One Of the pleasant features of the re-
gatta will be the first formal appearance
of the canoeists attached to the Poto-
macs, and both in their races and parade
will make decided hit. as their uniform
and crafts are the SWEETEST" things on
the river. The races will start promptly
at els o'clock. and will be rowed on sched
ule time to prevent the big eight-oared
race. Potomac against Georgetown Var

Behind Motor Cycles.


The races at the Coliseum, 18th and East
Capitol streets, were postponed last night
owing to the heavy rains of yesterday, and
will be run off tonight at o'clock, IL the
weather permits
McEachern and Pierce were both on hand
early last night, ready TO meet each other
la the match race. The twenty five mile
match race between the two middle-dis-
tance riders from Canada will be the fea-
ture of tonisht's program of events, and
in the event that the track Is in suitable
condition some fast time will be made and
possibly a record or two will be broken.
The rivalry Is SO intense between these
two riders. both of whom claim the cham
pionship of Canada, that they were ready
'te go out on the track last evening and ride
the race anyway. to prove who was the
faster man. They were finally persuaded
to wait until the. conditions were more
favorable.
In Baltimore the other night Pierce and
McEachern were heard to say that they
would die on their wheels rather than lose.
Dave Schaffer, AcEachern's manager, drew
