Yale Declined to Row in Norway

The Yale crew has declined an invitation to row against a crew from the Studenten Rokloub of Christian, Norway, on July 3. The invitation was extended by a Jan Schjerve, a cousin of King Haskon VII, of Norway, who came to America to present the invitation in person. Schjerve is an excellent oarsman and has spend some time rowing on the New Haven harbor. He was especially enthusiastic over the prospect of an international rowing race this summer, but the Yale authorities were forced to decline the invitation of his club because the race with the University being scheduled for June 23 would not permit it.
