There will be no Labor day rowing
regatta at San Diego between the Los
Angeles Athletic club four-oar crew
and the San Diego Rowing clubs crew.
Statements to the effect that tnere
would be one evidently were sent out
from the southern city without author
ization. A letter received by AL Ire
loar Yesterday from the Coronado tent
citv company is to the effect that IL
had not thought of holding regatta
and If the San Diego Rowing clup
started the rumor it certainly was
without foundation. Nevertheless, II
almost is certain that there Will pe
rowing regatta at San PEDRO IN tne
fall. to which the San Diego crew
will be invited, thus giving the club
crews an opportunity to do what tney
might have done anyway. In ADDITION
to the San Diego crew, the Dolphin
Rowing club, the Ariel Rowing cluo,
the South End Rowing club and the
Olympic club at San Francisco VIII be
asked 10 send a four-oar crew to COM
pete. In all, 1t is expected that ten
crews will compete.
The attention Of the officials of the
club now will be turned to the San
Pedro regatta. While the main event
of the day will be the senior four-oar
race, 1t is probable that each club will
send a junior four-oar crew and
SIM e shell sculler. AS the channel at
San Pedro is only large enough to ac-
commodate five crews abreast, at the
most, the main events will be rowed
in heats If there are any other row.
ing clubs in the state that want to
compete, they are requested to corre-
spond with AL Treloar, coach of the
Los Angeles Athlete club rowing
crew.

Joe Goldstein, whoever he is, has
challenged Dewitt C. Van Court, Char
lie Brownstein and Jimmy Routzahn to
a match swimming race to be held at
Naples, August 16, during the tourna-
ment for the championships of South
ern California. Goldstein is not par
ticular as to distance, saying that any
distance from 5 yards to 1000 yards
will suit him. AS to side issues, we'll

The Hynes baseball team will play
the Los Angeles Athletic club team
next Sunday afternoon If that date is
agreeable to the club boys. The Hynes
management will pay the fares of ten
players. AS Lou has charge of that
end of the game, it is likely that he
will take nine and ride out there twice.

The Humane society should step in
and persuade little George Retzer to
stop it, Perhaps Jack Johnson Will
agree also that it should be stopped

on the gymnasium wrestling mat.
Cliff Reuman has been doing great
work lately. Regardless of blistered
hands, due to strenuous rowing, Cliff
is keeping at his training. If the 9th
ers of AIS crew are as persistent as
Reuman it will be a safe wager of 10 to
6, with the club crew on the long end.
