St. Louis Cloctnnatt Pittsburg at ENGLISH ROWERS TO CHALLENGE The Leanders, the champion English rowing crew, ‘ave sent representatives to this country to arrange for'a rowing match with an American crew to be chosen from among the very best row- ere in the colleg¢s of this country. This action has been taken because the Leanders are smarting under the critl- clam which they heave received since they defeated the American college teams at the last Genley. At the time it was said that the Amer- fean crew suffered 4 serious handicap because each was selected from the ma- terial afforded at single colleges and universities, while the Leanders were recruited from the 110 colleges of Oxford and Cambridge. ‘This, the critics of tho Engileh crew assert, is equivalent to best men in all their country. The men who are to arrange for the rowing race under the new conditions, are members of the Marylebone Cumkat club, which arrived taslay on the |here Cunarder Carpethia. The orloketers are on thelr way ¢o Philadelphia to play @ bctch game with the Gentle men's Cricket Club of the Quaker City. There are thirteen of them under the command of Capt. E. W. Mann, One of the members of the team is H. C, Mi ell, who is the champion orick- eter of Oxford and Cambridge. The others are choren men from the English colleges, well kpown rowers. “It im our purpose,” wala KO. Hun ter, one of the oarsmen, ‘to have 2 conference with Fred R.
