Harvard waa the flrat to get Into the
water, and the youngsters paddled
■lowly up to the starting point amid
th* cheers of the crimson partisans.
Tale waa only a little behind, and
then the son* of Ely had their Inning
at the cheering game. Yale was given
the eastern position and Harvard the
western.
At 10:20.1-2 o’clock the signal was
given to start. Yale caught the water
flrat and took theisad. For some rea
son, howevsr, they were recalled and It
waa 10:24 when the klgnal again waa
given, and the race started In earnest.
Again Yale took the lead, rowing a
steady swinging atroke, which gradu
ally Increased the advantage. At the
first quarter the Elyltee were halt a
boat's length In the lead, and before
the half mil* was reached they were
three-quarters of a length ahead. Then

Both crews were pulling a beautiful
to the minute faster than Yale, and
this told. At the half mile the Cun-
hrldge men had a slight lead, but th.
New Haven athletes were pulling th,
steadier and stronger stroke and wer,
gaining. By the time the mile poet
was reached the prow of the Tele boat
had been pushed to the front and slow
ly but surely was gaining space.
As In the freshman race, the Har
vard stroke lacked finish, and there wx,

Slowly but surely they pulled up until
th* prows of the two boats were even.
Then Harvard pulled ahead and drew
away.
At the mile and an eighth Harvard
waa still In the lead, but Yale appeared
to be picking up. The cheers and
cries from the observation train was
deafening, and aa they rushed down
to the finish line lap the excitement
was Intense. The young oarsmen
wer* working ll(ce tigers. Every ounce
of strength was put Into every stroke.
At the mile and a half Yale had made
some gain and the boats were nearly
on .a-level. A liner race never waa seen
on the Thames.
The Yale stroke was livened up and
there were Indications that the strain
was too muefl for Harvard. She was
splashing.
Gradually th* Yale boat pushed Its
nose ahead, and the men from Cam
bridge let down a bit. In the last
quarter the stamina of Yale told, and
when the finish tins waa reached there
was clear water between the atern of
the Yale boat and the prow of Har

Aa soon as the excitement over the

ready for them. No time was lost
In sending off the crewe.
Harvard got the atari In this race.
