While the public links at Forest

With the Poughkeepsie Re
gatta Called OFF, Special
Race May Be Arranged

No change has been made in the
decision of the board of stewards of
the intercollegiate Rowinr Association
not to hold an intercollegiate regatta
at Poughkeepsic this year, in spite of
the fact that Yale and Harvard have
determined to revive their annual
struggle or the water.
The stewards have not held a formal
meeting, and none is 70 be held in the
rear future, but Charles Halsted
Mapes, Of Columbia, chairman of the
board and representatives Of Cornell
and Pennsylvania arc to meet at the
Columbia University Club on Satur-
day afternC on to discuss COLLEGE row
ing affairs
In the absence of the Poughkeo psie
race, it is understood to be the de-
sire of Columbia and PENNSYLVANIA in
particular and also of Cornell to have
the American association include in It's
programme fer She American Henley
race In which the varsity crews could
take part ever a mile-and-a half or a
two mile course.
1t Is understood to be the plan to
have the regatta rowed on the last
Saturday of May. or the first Satur-
day of June. instead OF on the first o..
second Saturday of May. as was the
custom IN the years just before the
war. This date would fall within the
academic year.
The big race would not be limite l
TO Columbia, Cornell and Pennsyl-
vsnia. but it would provide a contest
that would be a climax for their row
ing seasons.
Efforts are being made to interest
Yale, Harvard. Princeton and An
napolis in sending crews. either var
sity or freshmen. to the regatta, which
viii be given over largely to races for
the college oarsmen if they so desire.
There will also be races for club
crews and the leading clubs of Boston.
New York, Philade lphia and Washing-
ION will be represented at the meet

Among the representatives from
Boston will be Charles c. Lund, of
The Union Boat Club. who stroked the
