Washington and Lee Crew to Race
Virginia in Richmond


The Richmond News Leader of
last Thursday says: f. 81 ft II
An eight-oared shellrace Between
Washington and Lee and the Vir-
ginias will be the featured event
of the annual regatta of the Virginia
Boat Climb here this summer. The
regatta this year will be in the pa-
ture OF dual affair between the 10
cal club and the aquatic athletes of
the Lexington university.
The-regatta will be held shortly |
after the end of the college year,
about the middle OF June. While
Washington and Lee have never put
an eight ON the water, they have
a large number of crack oarsmen
and will turn out good crew.
Athletic relations between Wash
ington and Lee and the Virginia
Boat Club. while always friendly,
have been at a standstill for several
years. Some years ago they met
every summer in four-oared gig
, races. Three races were held here
and one in Lexington, three were
3 won by the college oarsmen.
] The old relations are to be renew
ed this summer and it is likely that
: hereafter the college men will take
s an active part in the boat club e
gattas.
: Washington and Lee takes an &C
tive interest in aquatics and for a
b number Of years they have main
!, tanned two strong four-oared crews,
|. These crews, known as the Harry
% Lee and Albert Sidney crews. meet
every spring in an annual race or
the upper James. There is keer
= rivalry between the two clubs.
g. The plan this year is FIR the two
10 crews to combine after their race
Ia and come down together to q
q, against the Virginias. BY taking
of the pick OF the university oarsmer
b it is expected that they will tVri

v. of these will be placed at the dis
posal of the Washington and lie

are wildly described. Adams was a
professional hunter, for sustenance and
nroft. net for sport, though the tone OF
his narrative sufficiently indicates that
he enjoyed that part of the life, too. He
and his companions shot game for the
Indians In exchange for necessary SER
vices. The dangers he ran, his perfect
recklessness. are astounding. He would
attack wounded grizzlies with his knife,
crawl into caves after their young, take
all kinds Of risks, and. on the whole. es-
cape, though he ultimately died in his
New England home from an old wound
I'm the skull, inflicted upon him by n
grizzly in the Sierra Nevada. His last
years he spent with his collection under
contract to Il. T. Barnum.
Adams lived before the days of the
faunal naturalist and his animal
psychology. He studied the denizens of
the wild closely. none the less. espe-
cially their behavior in battle. To the
prowess of the grizzly he pays glowing
tribute, venturing upon a disparagins
comparison with the lion and the tiger
which, however. he never hunted:
In the face Of the world the lion stands
noble. magnificent. magnanimous: out III
private life he is rapacious, cruel ever
watchful for advantages and frequently

In a quiet way Adams had an eye
for the beauties Of nature. the majesty
Of the towering peaks among which he
dwelt. He gives simple expression To IL
here and there in these pages. The
Indians he liked, insisting that their be-
havior toward the whites was always
conditioned by the treatment received at
their hands His hunting took him all
the way from the Sierras TO the Rockies
and among the Mormons, whose industry
he praises. lie describes his adventures
and misadventures with bears, wolves,
pumas and jaguars. with buffalo, elk,
deer and wild cattle. frequently return
ing to the praise of his beloved COM

taught TO carry pack on the trail. and
even the carcasses of fresh killed game.
His book is an entertaining page added
to the history Of the vanished West.
He lived before the days of the camera
hunter and of the use of photograv-
ure and halftone process in book illus
tration. The engravings that accompany
the text, spirited delineations OF its ac-
ton and dangers, are an added delight
savoring OF the period.
