SOPHOMORE A CREW IS WINNER IN CLASS RACE

FRESHMAN 150-POUND BOAT BEATS M. I. T. LIGHTWEIGHTS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Sophomore A crew easily won the class championship from Junior and Sophomore B crews over the mile and three quarters course in the Charles River Basin yesterday afternoon. At the same time the Freshman 150-pound crew deefated the M. I. T. first year light eight by a length over a mile race.

Both races were rowed upstream due to the rough water in the Basin. The Ineligible Combination and University 150-pound crews both started the class race, but the light weight combination dropped out at the Henley distance and the Ineligibles, after starting well, were serious handicapped when S. I. Bowditch '28, rowing No. 2, broke his oarlock, which resulted in disabling him and splitting the oar of W. H. Boldt '30 at No. 5.

The crews finished in the following order: Sophomore A first, Junior, second, Sophomore B, third, and Ineligibles last. The distance was covered in nine minutes 33 seconds.

The Freshman 150-pound crews rowed a mile from the Union Boathouse to the Harvard Bridge, the Harvard first year men winning by a length in a sprint in the last 100 yards. The race was rowed in very rough water, the Crimson eight completing the distance in five minutes 24 seconds.
