SCULLING.
N.Z. CHAMPIONSHIP TO BE DECIDED TO-MORROW.
Webb and Hannan have both practically completed their training for the match to be decided tomorrow fur the New Zealand sculling championship. Both men are reported to he very fit and confident. Hannan will strip about 11.9, Webb a couple* of pounds lighter. Both men have put in some strenuous work while in training. Hannan has done some solid work and he is remarkably strong and possessed ot great stamina and pluck and his supporters look to him to be going very strongly at the finish of the long course —three and a quarter miles. Webb has also put in some fine work, his rowing was clean and crisp and his long, powerful, sweeping strokes sends his boat along nicely, and his admirers have every reason to be confident that he has “come back” all right.
