ROWING.

The following are my anticipations for the various rowing events at the forthcoming regattas of Saturday and Tuesday next: —Maiden Gigs under lOst: St. George’s 8.C., with the Waitemata-City crew to fill second place. Junior Gigs, under lOst: The Waitemata-City crew should about win, with North Shore close handy. Senior Gigs, under lOst: Wai-temata-City. Junior Gigs, open: St. George’s, with West End as their most dangerous opponents. Senior Gigs, open : Auckland B.C. No. 1 crew. The sculling race for the Marshall Cup and gold medal attracts a field of seven, viz., Messrs. J. Sullivan, W. Logan, H. Cramond, A. Dacre, W. Brigham, G. H. Beston, and Cossar, and the winner should be found in either W. Logan or G. H. Beston. The Naval Volunteer Cutter Bace will result in an interesting go bebetween the Devonport Torpedo Corps and the Auckland Artillery, and I look to the latter to gain the judge’s verdict. The Dinghy Bace, for youths under 21 years of age, has brought out four competitors, and I think the struggle will lie between V. Masefield and J. M. Brigham, with the former for preference.
