X 1 r a Mccu Marietta becomes new collegiate rowing capital Marietta up a this historic Ohio River City site of the first permanent settlement in Ohio is now the nations new collegiate rowing capital. The far famed a a Poughkeepsie regatta was transferred Friday from the Hudson River to the Ohio River. The annual rowing event thus became the a a Marietta regatta. The action we As taken by the Board of stewards of the intercollegiate rowing association. The 1950 championship three mile test will be held Marietta june 17. The announcement by the Board of stewards said two principal factors led to the Transfer 1. The absence of tides and currents on the Ohio River and 2. The availability of an observation train. Poughkeepsie tried but was unable to match Marietta. A return of the regatta to Poughkeepsie in the future is unlikely appeared. The Marietta course is a three mile Straightaway except for a 21-degree Bend about the one mile Mark. The Start is Only a few mocks from the Center of the atty. For Tim lamp two Bailey till Railroad parallels the River and affords an uninterrupted View of the finish. Hours after the announcement the regatta was moving to Marietta this River City could Hardy believe its ears. But its citizens jubilantly launched its drive to be ready for the first Marietta regatta Only 65 Days away. De m. Hawes vice chairman of the Marietta rowing committee admitted a i still rub my eyes when i realize that in six months we have been Able to upset 55 years of tradition. We have done something for rowing As a sport and we will perhaps see some of the other 19 colleges in the immediate area taking up rowing in the he added a Campaign will open once in Marietta to raise $15,000 to $20,000 for remodelling a construction of Shore installations for the regatta. The rowing Plant with that much additional work on will be a Worth $75,000 to $80,000,�?� Hawes said. Work also is scheduled to get under Way soon on the observation train which will seat about 3000 persons in 24 Gondola cars. The Ika derives its appreciable Revenue from Selling up amp cd on the observation train. The train Poughkeepsie we As dismantled during world War ii and never w As rebuilt. Five colleges comprise the Ira. They Are Columbia. Cornell Navy Pennsylvania and Syracuse. But California Washington Wisconsin and several Eastern colleges have competed As invited guests. The guests have run away with the regatta in recent years. Since 1930, Only Navy among the member colleges has won a varsity race. California and Washington have taken major honors. The first intercollegiate regatta Poughkeepsie was held in 1895, four years before the formation of the intercollegiate rowing association and the event has been held there annually with few exceptions. The 1898 race Wras held on Saratoga Lake ., and fat 1920, when rowing was resumed after world War i a two mile race Wras held on Lake Cayuga Ithaca The regatta we As abandoned during the War years 1918-19 and 1942 to 1946, Marietta which saw its first College Crew race in 1878, has been the scene of several intercollegiate races since 1931, including 111� a dad Vail regatta in 1941.
