Of its kind ever attempted by q local

every one that they are not pikers-"
Among the special events of the day
will be an eight-oared race between the
junior crews Of the Arundle Boat Club
of Baltimore and the Potomac. This
event should be very exciting and spec
tacular, as there Is much rivalry between
these two crews. they having recently
rowed a close race against each other
when the Potomacs visited the. Arundels
at Baltimore at the time Of the Arundel
regatta and were defeated by the Bal
timoreans by a close margin.
At that time the Potomacs were forced
to row in a strange boat and with
strange oars, placing them at a great
disadvantage. but on Saturday, with their
own boat and oars they expect to make
the Arundels bow. Coach c. r. Zap
pone. of the Potomacs, has selected the
men to represent the club in
this event: Bow. A. F. Garner. 2. Don

The racing is not going to be the full
xtent of the Potonacs' activities for the
lay. as Immediately after the racing
