Washington mere
ly playing host to the countrys racing
stars for two days only, it will be the
scene of almost complete week, set
aside as District Aquatic week"
THE racing program next Septem-
Der will be stretched over three
days, Thursday, September 90,
and the following Friday and Saturday.
Preceding this week end will be an ex-
tensive swimming program conducted
in various pools in the District.
The running Of the three heats for
the coveted Presidents Cup will, as
originally planned be held September
% and 80. Thursday will be devoted
entirely to sculling and canoe races
The Presidents Cup race will be held
on the Georgetown Channel and the
rowing and canoe program on Wash
ington Channel
Remon this week will line up a COM
nittee composed of Washingtons most
astute and enterprising aquatic leaders
and so attractive is it hoped to make
the motorless portion of the regatta that
virtually all of the crack bladesmen of
the East are expected to compete
against the best crews of the Potomac
and Washington Canoe Clubs.
Thus the 1888 Presidents Cup Re-
gatta will have an appeal for all species
OF water enthusiasts, in addition to the
color and glamour which attracts the
interest OF the veriest landlubber

this Summers motor boat racing

the annual Fourth Of July regatta here,
will offer every form Of competition
from the smallest Of outboards to the
largest of express cruisers. The Mid
western racing chart centers, Of course,
about Lake Michigan and the World
Fair, and the Pacific Coasts activities
will extend even to Catalina Island
Many of the Eastern events will draw
Washington entries, particularly the
Virginia Gold Cup regatta at Hampton,
Va. on July 3 and 4, the Maryland
