THE SCULLING CHAMPIONSHIP.
PADDON TRAINING
Pr««i Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.
LONDON, July 7.
Paddon, although wearing a bandage on his right wrist, has completely recovered from his accident, and is now rowing twice daily. He is massaged after each row. He has maintained condition by using the running track, and is now within 71b of his rowing weight. English critics consider that he is rowing with better length than any colonial who has met Barry on the Thames. Barry's weight is 11.13.
ENGLISH-ROWING CRITICISED
LONDON, July 7.
The Sportsman says ,that the Henley results show that something is lacking in English lowing. The crews do not train sufficiently. Their style can apparently be improved. English oarsmen swing too far back, neglect their hands and wrists, and their recovery is unsteady.
