SCULLING.
The Sculling Championship. In conversation with an Elthaiu t;Argus” reporter, Arnst stated that he had heard Webb’s |>eople were prepared to put him forward in another match for the championship. Fogwell-Welch Match. In connection with the Fogwell* Wheleh match, to be rowed on Easter Monday at Akaroa, it is very probable that arrangements will be made for W. Webb to act as pacemaker and also trainer for Wheleh. The latter is very anxious to secure Webb’s services, and there is every prospect of the ex-cham-pion of the world assisting the Akaroa sculler. The latter’s friends are determined to spare no expense to give their man every opportunity of being fit to do himself justice on the day, and it is safe to say that Webb is just’ the. man to bring out the best that is in Wheleh, who should benefit very considerably by having the Wanganui sculler’s assistance in his preparation.
