ENGLISH 0ARSMEN
WOULD HELP GAME
American Rowing Enthusiasts
Hope British College Crews
Will Appear.
BY TOM THORP.

1t is the earnest hope of every row.
ing enthusiast that the athletic au-
thorities at oxford and Cambridge
universities will vote to accept the
invitation of the stewards of the In
tercollegiate Rowing Association to
take part in the Pouehkeepsie re-
gatta next June. Such a decision
would do much to revive interest in a
sport that has for some reason or
other lost much of it's popularity. If
an international flavor could be in
jected into the Hudson river classic
the race would prove the most in
teresting equatic event in many sea-
sons.
The fact that Yale. Harvard and
Princeton do not send crews to Poush-
keepsie detracts somewhat from the
interest of the race. These schools
of learning have large followings.
True it is that the representatives of
Cornell have during the past defeated
a ma jority of the best Fights of these
Institutions.
In fact. Syracuse has also won
enough victories in the last decade
to be classed trifie higher in aquatic
annals than any of the big three"
However. when the representatives
of Yale, Harvard and Princeton are
absent from an athletic event it fails
to arouse as much interest as it other
wise would.
The generous invitation of the In
tcrcollegiate Rowing Association to
welcome all or any colleges which
wish to participate in the Hudson
river race has accomplished much to
win favor among athletic followers
for the coming seasons classic.
II the invitation proves acceptable
to either OXford or Cambridge much
more interest will be added to the
test. In such an event it would no
doubt be accepted by rowing authori-
ties as the championship race among
intercollegi late competitors.
For this reason it is hoped that
the English authorities will see fit
to send at least one eight to Pough-
kepsie.

EVERYBODY SHOULD
JOIN THE CLIQUE"

The burden OF the work of the
Chamber of Commerce falls on what
some people call The Clique"
Here is who the clique is;
Who is the "Clique?" Tis a body
of men who attend every meeting,
not just now and then; who don't
miss meeting unless they are sick,
these are the men the crouch calls
"The Clique" Who don't make a
farce of that sacred word brother"
who believe in the motto to help
one another who never resort to a
dishonest trick-these are the men
that some call 'sThe Clique" The
men who are seldom behind in their
dues, and who from the meetings
do not carry news; who attend to
their duties and visit the sick
these are the men that the crank
calls The Clique" But there are
some people who always find fault.
and most of these kind are not
worth their salt, they like to start
trouble bu seldom will stick
they like to put all the work in

til Mr. Perrine. Jr., arrives II the

Perrine had all the ear marks OF
a real newspaper man. We wei
come them to the field. Mr.. Silvey
came to Fowler some six or seven
years ago and since that time has
presided over the destinies of the

were not properly secured the I. o

the hall without knocking, marched
in and took possession of the chairs
of the Oxicers OF the lodge. Not long
however, as soon as Mrs. Overfield,
Mrs Kindall, Mrs. Hall, Mrs Kid
der and few others of like stature
decided that the invading members
had no right in there an the riot
started which resulted in the skin

frocks, and believe me the next time
the writer goes with that bunch
he will announce his presence at the
outer door and try to give the sign
