To Henley
Announcement was made last week that Kent School, small, conservative preparatory institution of Kent, Conn., will send an eight-oared crew to compete in the Thames Challenge Cup race of next June's Henley Regatta, England. Arrangements are also being made for a meeting with the Eton crew. It will be the first appearance of a U. S. schoolboy crew in a Henley Regatta. Their shell, a present from Lord Rothermere, British newspaper magnate, is now being constructed by famed Builder Simms, Putney, England.
