would bo Juit aa hard to row a threcmlle

J, H. nich. flyrncuse: "If tho raco were
shorter certain men might have a
tendency to rely more on their 'nerve'
than on tho .real strength and chduraheo
gained by conscientious training, I truly
believe that men will train more care
fully ancf conscientiously for ft' four-mllo
race than for a race of at shorter distance,
and consequently receive more benefit
from It."
