or HaW heather-Dr. Cady CaDsiLes,
Though the day was raw and the water
rough on the Harlem River. yesterday. the
crews which intend TO do some racing in
the coming reeattAs were out In force. There
were eight tours, Centipedes, doubles and
singles. and not a man but did his best while
he was rowing, The cold kept the loungers
and critics indoors. but there was a sensa-
ton, and for a short spell the stoves and warm
hooks on "SCullers Row" we're deserted. Dr.
Cady Of the Nassau Boat Club furnis he'd the
thriller, for after rowing his new shell up and
down the river for q couple OF miles, he quietly
took a header out Of the shell and disappeared
beneath the chilly waves. When he rose 70
the surface guy ropes. hRwsers and other
towing material were thrown 70 him. and
after some vigorous pulling on the part Of
Jack Nagle and Johnny Smith the Nassau
esculapius and his she'll were brought ashore.
Barring a coat Of goose flesh" the doctor
was unframed.
