LABOR DAY REGATTA
FOR WASHINGTON

,Ry A vote of the forty-five clubs, mem
hers of the Middle States Rowing Asso-
citation. they agreed last night at its an
nual meeting in New York to hold Its
twenty second regatta here on the Poto-
mac river next Labor day.
The Potomac River Regatta Association
has been making the fight of its life to
secure this most important of dates. and
opposition after opposition has appeared,
but by good diplomatic work it has de-
feated ALL the principal one being that of
the strong Schuylkill navy. which. after
voting to fight for it, withdrew when
Washington made its wants known. 1t
is one of the greatest compliments ever
paid to a locality. and shows how we'll the
hospitality of the association and the
river as a rowing course stand with the
clubs of America.
The Star has vigorously championed the
fight of the local association for the re-
gatta. and the officers of the Potomac
associa ton are giving considerable of the
credit of securing the regatta to it's good
wor,-.
Mr.. Harry Penn Burke of the Schuylkill
navy was elected president. and being
perhaps the hardest working oarsnnan and
officer in America. he will make a great
effort to have the regatta eclipse its rec
ord of two years ago, when 1t reached
the high water mark of America Mr..
Claude r. Zappone. the chief boomer of
Washington. WIS elected vice president.
and with Mi. Burke will make strong
