Boat Club man, ask him about the wonderful crew Po

the question, step back and watch the explosion.
Why b, the Potomacs never had wonderful

JACK JOHNSON MUST t.
NOW LEAVE ENGLAND

London, Feb. S.-The authorities have
suggested to Jack Johnson that his room
Is more desirable than his company. 1t
has been made clear to the negro prize
fighter that II he does not leave volun-
tarily he probably will be deported.
Johnson took the hint. and announced
that he will sail on March 3 for South
America. The former champion has been
heading a revue lately. touring the prov
inces. and has been making barrels of
money" There have been innumerable
complaints received by the authorities
with regard to his obnoxious attentions
to white women.

and the showing made by them is a
splendid credit to his ability In this line.
1t is expected that the crew will be
intact, with one exception, for next sea
son and should give a good account Of
itself.
The Potomacs finished up the day with
victory when Capt. Frank Cham berlin
and First Lieut.. Bill Powell padded in
ahead of a field OF seven other starters
in the intermediate double sculIs.
The Analostans had only one entry in
this regatta, their senior eight, but with
this lone crew they fell only four feet
short of winning the classic of the day
the senior eight race.
1t can be seen from the above review
that Washington has been as well repre-
sented in the rowing game as any other
city of like size in the country.
From the time OF the first Washington
crew in the seventies to the present day
crews from the local clubs have gained
victories in many national and interna-
tional rowing regattas and with two such
clubs as the Analostan and Potomac the
District can expect to see headlines IN
