SCULLING.
HIGH STAKES DEPRECATED.
(Received February 16th, 11.5 p.m.) LONDON, February 16.
Walter Bradford Woodgato, cxamateur champion, in a letter to tho "Field,", says there are strong reasons •why high stakes between "Britons should bo deprecated. They tend to* deter rising talent and limit British aspirants to the ichampionship. Barry will be placing himself and British sculling in a false position if he insists on high stakes. It would bo mor© dignified, sportsmanlike, and politic if, after racing Paddon, he met Albany for £200 ti-_ide.
