can and other overseas competi-
tors at the Henley Regatta, principal
event Of the British rowing season,
will next year find an improvement
in the home opposition.
This follows a decision Of the Brit
ish Amateur Rowing Association 10
amend clause in its rules that has
ben a source of irritation to oarsmen
for SIS years
The clause said: "No person shall
be considered an amateur oarsman,
sculler or coxswain, who is, or has
been, by trade or employment for
wages, a mechanic, artisan or laborer,
or engaged in any menial duty"
This ruling, which prevented many
f1ne rowing men from competing in
the regatta, controlled by the B. A.
r. A., now has been eliminated.
A substitute clause provides that
as from January /. 1888, entries win
be accepted from any bona f1de ANA
teur, thus enabling oarsmen who earn
their living by manual labor to COM
pete at Henley for the first time.

A MOTHER species now showing in

time called the Lafayette. They are
in the lower Potomac and In the Pa
tuxent, the Potomac fish being some
what the larger and about as numer-
Gus.
The trouble with spot is that they
are a nibbly creatures, and when they
are around they rob your hook with
out being snagged, a rather Distress
ing habit. The only thing to do when
none OF the large keepers" are around
is to put on small hooks and catch
the babies, not too many now, and cut
them up and use for trout bait, for
which they are excellent.
THERE are not enough local anglers
who occasionally fish the Nova
Scotia streams and nearby ocean for
grilse. salmon, trout, swordfish and
tuna to justify news from that Sec

However. We received weekly detailed
