HENLEY REGATTA.
FEW OVERSEA ENTRANTS. Australian and N.Z. Cable' Association. (Reed. 7.45 p.m.) LONDON, Juno 4. The Henley regatta will bo shorn of much attractiveness owing to the absence of Dominion and foreign competitors, who gave it an international character in 1913 and 1914. The only foreign entrants are the Dutch sculler, Eiiken, and the Union Boat Club, Boston, United States, who are contesting the Grand Challenge Stewards and Thames Cups, and the Diamond Sculls. It is believed that they have a good chance of winning the Grand Challenge Cop, as English rowing has not recovered its pre-war standard.
