Second Crew Victorious Over Third

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The second University crew defeated the third eight in a hard race yesterday over the one and seven-eighths mile course in the Basin. The second boat won by about five lengths, covering the distance in ten minutes.

The third crew was given a start of about a length and a half over the second and for the first twenty or thirty strokes neither was able to gain. When, however, the crews lowered their strokes for the steady pull to Harvard Bridge, the second gained rapidly. A series of tens brought the second steadily ahead until at the finish at Longwood Bridge it was four lengths of open water ahead of the third crew. Neither eight displayed very good watermanship, but both rowed a hard race. The third lacked the power on the finish and the control over the slides which the second possessed.

The orders:

Second crew.--Stroke, Forster; 7, Metcalf; 6, Strong; 5, Bacon; 4, Cudahy; 3, Loring; 2, Waite; bow, Whitney; cox., Voorhees.

Third crew.--Stroke, Trumbull; 7, Anderson; 6, Parker; 5, Beane; 4, M. Peabody; 3, Coe; 2, Hoar; bow, Wiggins; cox., Kempton.
