Uiing, who has all aluug Inken a very nctivc intnrest in the regalia, i tha only original member of the board aiiil on hand. Upon Mr. ltnng ha fallen for so mo years the duty of arranging for the regatta and of seeing that all tilings In with It are wall managed. It. wa just the day before the Inleicol-leginte regatta this year that, some of Mifl rtipreHnutallve of tlia olhor eollegu outside tlin originul llirnn opok of I heir wlnh to bo represented oil the hoard of steward.

-The regatta wa first Until in Silo. After Harvard hud taken purt mid driited out, WiHcnnsin elilerod III rmnpnlilloii. Tho flrst )eparnnc of the Wmienicr wn In 1M1IK In Oeorgetown was Invited to cnmpei. Kyracuso sent a crew for the flrst time, the following year, "rum to WW, inclusive, there have ben lx crew in Hi race. Tim addition of tb Naval Academy this year tnmlo seven.

The contention raised by the represen-tative of one of the outside college wa tloifjf these lines: "Wa feel that, any college which hn supported the regatta fur everal year and which has hown a desire, to send crew right slung to rce on the Hudson should be on some other foot, log than merely ihat of an invited guest Considers System Falty, "For Instance, it now I poKskble for the steward, if they so choose, to leave out any college wlioso presence is objection able to them for any rennou, How unfair this i or would bo It does not lake groat Intelligence to see, If, by the whira of the stewards, an Inslltuliort which for year hn sont craw to tho regatta sud ha built op an expensive rowing foundation may be left high and dry, su far a competition I concerned, it appears to me and to tho college I represent that lbs system is wrong. The plan that some of the colleges have been considering ia to ask the Uourd of Steward to make a sort nf associato membership list. Any college which hn aim- porlcd llie, regattafor a certain number of years I qualified tberoby for associate membership. After a certain other num. ber of years Unit associate menibershiti may be transmuled into regular slewsnl- ship In the regatta.

A thing tand now, iue inviinu iiisiiniiioti can never reel absolutely safe that one year or another will them on the Hudson, and It Is In effect training -without definite knowledge that there will be a race for tho crew so trained, after all. The present system make no distinction between a crew here for i's first year and a crew which ha been here for eight yearn. Seniority give privilege only to tho crews which are put out by the original three colleges, 1 have no hesitation in saying that some of Hie outsiders have done more to make tho regatta Intercut ing than the crews of two of file original throe, Co-lunrbi won one only nd wa a strong contender In and 117.

The nt two year the race between Pennsylvania and WiscMBsin wa eitremely close, tb West erners being second on both occRMion.
