CREW ABANDONS HOPE FOR TRIP TO COAST

Giving Up of Exposition Regatta Makes Proposed Journey to Seattle Unlikely.

Red Top, Conn., June 16.--It was announced today that the regatta at the Exposition had been given up, and the Seattle trip planned for the University crew will probably be abandoned.

Weather conditions were excellent for rowing this morning, and the work consisted of easy stretches down-stream for all men. H. S. Middendorf was again replaced by White, but the former rowed a short time in a pair oar, and hopes to be in the University boat tomorrow.

The University and second crews rowed short stretches at a high stroke, and the Freshmen took a two-mile paddle up and down stream. In the half-mile scrub race the 1918 four got a poor start and was beaten by the gentlemen's four by a half-length.
