Besides four-oared crews from Van- couver, B. C., there may be crews and single scullers from Victoria and Nelson, B. C. Many conoeists will go from Van- , where canoeing is a highly popu- lar sport It is likely Portland will be represented by two four-oared crews at Astoria. The Luders crew may be changed somewhat after the Vancouver regatta. For that event it was made up as follows: George Luders, bow: Kirkley, No. 2; Montgom- ery, No. 3; and King, stroke. If the crew thus arranged wins at Vancouver it will be entered for the Astoria regatta. oses an effort will be made to strengthen it E. Gloss will represent the Portland Rowing Club in the senior scull race, hav- ing beaten W. T. Patton in a trial held on the Willamette River on Thursday evening, the 16th inst. The water was | mooth and the scullers got away to a good start. For the first quarter of a mile the scullers pulled evenly but then Gloss began to gain and continuing to do three lengths. The funior four-oared shell crew, with A. King at stroke, is practicing every evening and will pull in the senfor and junior races at the regatta of the North Pacific Assoclation of Amateur Oarsmen at Vancouver, B. C. The members of the crew left Portland on Sunday, the 19th inst.,, for Vancouver, accompanied by their coach. A. W. Pape is staying at Annisquam, Cape Ann, Mass., the summer home of his brother, Eric Pape the artist. He is en- deavoring to regain his lost weight and vigor, and, if he succeeds in doing so, will take part in the regatta at Worces- 1t it | | championship, but the score shows he was completely outclassed, as he got but one | game in three/sets. | ———— Homing Pigeon Breaks Record.
