les Courtney’s vigorous advancemenll
of arguments in favor of placing the
limit (if-intercollegiate rowing races
at three miles finds an echo in the state
mept of Dr. Duncan Spaeth, coach of

1 Dr. Spaeth has always been a strong
advocate of short races, and it has
been largely his influence that has
kept Princeton from agreeing to ex-
tend its limit to four miles and joining
the group at Poughkecpsie. Says Dr.
Spaeth:
