Much has been written from time to time about the detrimen- tal effect the sport of rowing has on its devotees. So let me tell you all about three "grand old men" of the river-Messrs. F. Fenner, S. le B. Smith, and W. H. Eyre: whose combined ages total 259 years. They were all at Han- ley Regatta last month, by the way, says a, Sporting Life corres- pondent.

Mr. F. Fenner, the senior of the three, was born in 1839, the year Henley Regatta started, and is therefore now in his ninety-second year.
