Single Scull Race Yesterday.

The single scull race took place yesterday afternoon under extremely unfavorable conditions. A strong headwind was blowing and the water for the first mile was very rough. The race started at the Union Boat House, and for the first quarter-mile the rowing was very close, Finally leading Van Schaick, the only other entry. At the end of the half mile the men were rowing very hard and Finally was leading by one length. From this point on, Finally gradually increased his lead until at the Harvard Bridge there was a little more than one length of clear water between the two boats. The race ended at the Crescent boat house, about a mile and a half from the Union boat house and Finally crossed the line an easy winner in 9 minutes, 50 seconds. Van Schaik finished in 10 minutes, 2 seconds, about four and a half lengths behind Finally.
