The Australian selections for the Chicago Games are expected to include Hillhouse and Whyte. After the Ameri- . can events the team will leave next Saturday for Los Angeles, where they will spend three days prior to sailing on the Ventura on September 11. Bob Pearce, having accepted a challenge by William Miller, of Philadelphia, will defend tho Gold Challenge Cup, emblematic of the sculling supremacy of the world, in a race on tho SchuvkiU River, at I'hiladeplhia, some tinio in the next fortnight.
