Coach O'Dea Says Wisconsin Crew
VIII Surely BE There

MILWAUKEE, Wis. Feb. PA spe-
cial to the Sentinel from Madison Wis,
says the Wisconsin varsity crew will
without doubt row at Poughkeepsie in
the big race the coming summer. 1t
seems a report gained currency in the
East that If Pennsylvania rowed at Hen
from the Hudson river event. Coach
O'Dea settled the matter decisively to-
night by announcing that the Wisconsin
crew would surely be on hand for the
Poughkeepsie event. He had his doubts
about Pennsylvania being represented at
Henley, and predicted that all the uni
versities that took part in the race at
Poughkeepsie last year would again be
represented this year.
