SPECIAL RACE ARRANGED.
Georgetown and Penn Freshmen
Crews to Meet at Henley.

That the Georgetown 1912 crew Will
row at the American Henley in Phila
delphia May - was made certain dur
ing the past week by the arrangement
of a special match between the hilltop
colts and the University of Pennsylva-
MIA freshmen. same TO be rowed off in
the Henley race for second Fights. The
original plan was to have the two
crews decide their differences the day
previous To the regatta. but this was
hardly feasible. as both boats had 10
to run off the special match at the same
time the regatta race. The course
will be the usual Henley stretch, one
mile and five-sixteenths in length.
That the locals to be congratu-
lated on arranging contest with the
Red and Blue goes without saying Not
only will the race be between repre-
sentative crews. but it will also be a
means of comparison between :hc
Georgetown freshmen and the first
year Fights al Poughkeepsie. since the
Penn boys will compete as usual on
the Hudson.
AS yet nothing more has been heard
from the authorities at the Naval Acad-
envy nor is it probable that anything
shall develop. Although race against
the plebes on May would be just the
thing to give the West End lads eX-
perience. and would also be warmly
fought ont by the rival crews, the
Georgetown management is not espe-
cially anxious to bring the match about,
since to row at Annapolis would mean
the loss of a couple of days Of prac-
tice work at a time when every minute
is valua BILE.
The crew has not been able TO get
on the river now for three days on ac-
count Of the high winds. but as the
conditions the same everywhere
else the loss Of work will not work 10
a very great disadvantage. Coach Rus

them will meet In contests over the ma
sfonsl course in the SchuylkiIl river.
Yale varsity will meet Pennsylvania var

iu,ions will also row for supremacy. Ideal
weather Is promised for the races. which
viii begin at o clock.
White the day is cool. there is hut very
little wind. and the river probably will be
smooth when the crews take tine water.
The original arrangement was for the
races to be rowed over two-nile course.
but Yesterday II was decided To reduce
the distance TO one and one-half miles.
The change was made TO avoid a sharp
idrn in the river, which might handicap
the crew holding the outside position.
Each OF the crews is in rare condition
and confident Of bringing victory To its
respective university. The races have ex-
cited much interest, and a large crowd is
expected 10 Witness the contests.
