A. C. A. PRIZE FLAGS. 



A FEW weekB ago the regatta committee sent out a circular to 

 a number of clubs asking contributions of flags for the meet 

 prizes. Each club was asked to subscribe a flag or send S3 to the 

 chairman. The committee take pleasure in publishing the names 

 of the clubs who have most generously responded to the call. 

 Only a few clubs have not as yet been heard from: Quaker City 

 C C., Philadelphia C. C, Brockville C. C, Brooklyn C. C, 

 Amsterdam C. C, Vesper B. and C. C, Deseronto C C, Ottawa 

 C C, Mohican C C, Shattemuc C. C, Oaklaud (Cal.) C. C, 

 Pequot C. A., Knickerbocker C. C„ Toronto C. C, Shuh-shnh-gah 

 CO. ( Winch ester, Mass.), New York C.C.Springfield C.C., Rondout 

 CC, 18 in all. About 30 prizes will be needed, and it is hoped that a 

 few other clubs will come forward with their aid. The following 

 clubs declined for good and sufficient reasons to subscribe: 

 Potomac C. C, Trenton C. C, Paterson C. O. The committee 

 append the following letters to illustrate two kinds of canoeists 

 that belong to the A C. A., and with whom they have had to deal: 



Boston, Mass., May 25, 1888.— Paul Butler, Esq., Lowell. Mass.— 

 Dear Sir: The Shuh-shuh-gah C. C, of Winchester, Mass., desires 

 to furnish one of the A. C. A. prize flags as per circular of the 

 regatta committee (of which we did not receive a copy, being a 

 new and unknown club), and 1 therefore inclose check for $5 to 

 your order to be applied to that purpose. Our club has twenty- 

 six members, is the successor of the Misticke C. C, and is officered 

 as follows: Captain, G. B. Riley; Lieutenant, O. S. Sergeant; Pur- 

 ser, F. C Ohilds; Secretary, T. A. Apollonio. Kindly acknowledge 

 receipt and oblige yours truly, C. S. Sebgeant. 



, May 19, 1888.— Mr. C. Bowyer Vaux, Chairman of Regatta 



Committee. Dear Sir: I am instructed by Hie members of the 

 " Canoe Club" to t a.\ :— that as only four of the fourteen mem- 

 bers of our club are members of the A. C. A., and as hut one of 

 these has ever attenoed a meeting of that organization, we tbink 

 that the Reratta Committee for 1888 displays an unlimited amount 

 of "orass" in asking us to donate prizes for which the members of 

 that committee and a few other canoeists may compete; if you 

 want prizes for which to race, provide them yourselves, as we are 

 obliged to do under similiar circumstances, and as we hope we 

 may always be able to do. Respectfully yours, , Sec'y .
