WEST POINT NOT ROW;
REMARKABLE OFFER
Wealthy Enthusiasts of Aquatics
Were Ready to Equip
Military Academy.

NEW YORK, January A.--West Point
Military Academy has positively refused
to take up rowing as sport after re-
ceivins one of the most extraordinary
offers ever made to any institution to
develop this particular sport. For MINI
Der of years men interested In rowing
at Annapolis and the Eastern universities
have wished ardently to see rowing es.
tabiished at West Point where there is
every facility for the development of
this form Of aquatic sport.
1t was considered that the expense OF
maintaining crew would be the biggest
handicap to overcome. Accordingly, Of
fers We're received from several wealthy
New Workers and Philadelphians to pre-
sent the military academy with full
rowing outfit, including shells, boat
house. and everything needful to the es-
Enlistment of rowing.
The matter was taken up with the off,
Gals of tho academy by one of the stew
ards of the Intercollegiate Rowing AS
ISOLATION, whose annual regatta is held
on the Hudson at Poughkeepsfe. The
commandant of the academy was finally
obliged to refuse the offer. The reason
he gave was that the cadets would not
have the necessary time to develop
crew.
