Potomacs.
The Potomac club at its recent meeting
decided to hold the annual Potomac river
regatta the first week in August. This
event Is one of the largest of the season.
and the clubs Of the north always make an
effort to send crews here for this carnival
AT this regatta besides the individual
prizes to the winners of each event, and
the banners to the clubs, there are also
given The Evening Star cup for the senior
four-oared Shell crews now held by the
Philadelphia Barge Club. the Washington
POST cup for senior Fights and the Castel-
berg cup for junior Fights
IN TINS regatta there will be races for the
following; The three classes of single scul-
lers, Junior, intermediate and senior: three
efght-oared races for the three classes
Junior and intermediate double SOULS.
Junior and senior four-oared gigs. a LARGO
and inviting list.
The shell in which the Potomacs row
their eight-oared races has been laid up
during the past week for repairs and the
only crew rowing was the junior eight
boated in the old Baltimore boat But be-
ginning with the coming week. as soon as
all the alterations completed Capt
Mueller intends rowing two crews This
will greatly aid the men in their rounding

oarsmen prove themselves worthy to 60
They are moving quite well now. and to
Captain Mueller, great credit Is due for the
crew he has made from the raw material Of
his command. These youngsters may re-
ceive try-out against the Analostans as
special event of that clubs regatta on June
o. and 1t Is there that this mettle will be
demonstrated.
There will be a general overhauling of
the boats OF the Potomac house. With the
repairing Of the old boats, and the possible
purchase Of new ones the club will be easily
able to boat the many anxious young oars
men.
The social life at the club Is continually
busy and lacks nothing of the brightness
and brilltancy Of former years. There will
be dancing reception in the preitily dec
grated ball room on Friday evening, and
once more the oarsmen will diverge for
time from his rowing tasks and trip the
light fantastic.
Analostans Active.
At the Analostan club house there is that
hustle and activity of friendly rivalry which
precedes their annual club regatta. 1t will
be held next Saturday evening. There will
be one paramount race, that between the
junior eights The Potomacs are invited to
enter this race, and, as they will in all prob
ability accept 1t will be the race of the day.
More depends upon this race than usual, as
each club has decided to send their own
Junior eight to Philadelphia on July f. pro-
viding they show the required amount of
speed. This race then between the repre-
sentatives of the two clubs is practically a
test to decide the question, although the
clubs may send their eight, win or lose
Besides this race there will be races for
four-oared crews. junior and senior; four
cared gigs, single and double outriggers,
and single and double paddle canoes This
is large list for club regatta. but it
only goes to show that the Analoston club
is pregnant with that zeal and enthusiasm
hich is bound to make 1t one Of the clubs
to be heard from in the future.
After the regatta there will be the usual
regatta hop
to Philadelphia to enter the Peoples regatta
July 4, and all the available material and
coaching Is being used to make the crew
good one. They seem to be rowing a little
slower stroke than heretofore, and the boat
is moving faster between strokes.
The crew Is good-sized one, and with
a few finishing touches In the coaching
line they should soon be ready for their
pr disability be as follows:
Burke, bow; Garrett No. 2; Houston.
No. 8: Harrison. No. 4; McCurdy. No. 5:
Bynum No. 6; Captain Nevfns. No. Z; Tod
Robinson, stroke; G. T. Howard, coxswain.
Old Dominions.
The movement concerning home regatta
in Alexandria on July Is still on foot,
and although nothing has at yet been def
inately settled. it is hoped that the affair
will be a success. The local clubs are
strongly In favor Of this new arrival on the
lower Potomac, and they will lend their
rivermates all available assistance.
Daily Whipped Tipman.
Tom DAILY of Baltimore, but formerly of
New York. knocked out Joe Tipman of
Baltimore In the twelfth round before the
Eureka Athletic Club of Baltimore last
night, and will probably be matched by
the club to meet Kid Sullivan, lightweight
champion of the District. next Friday
Sullivan has already whipped both Daily
and Tipman, but by only small margin.
