At the start the 'varsity rowed right away from '86, finishing the half mile some two or three lengths ahead. They then took up '87, who reached the mile just ahead of them. Here '88 joined in the race, and at half a mile from the finish '89 did also. The last quarter-mile was quite close and exciting, '89 leading, and '88 a length behind. The freshmen crossed the line first, closely followed by the 'varsity and '88, who were about even; the sophomores, perhaps, having a slight advantage. A number of people on the river well enjoyed the race, which was fully as exciting as that of a week ago.
