Meyer's Crew Triumphs in First '38 Divisional Race

Three Freshmen crews, only three weeks off the Leviathan, raced down the Charles yesterday in their first competition as oarsmen.

At 5 o'clock Coach Haines barked out the starting signal. The boat holding the middle lane, stroked by Meyer, pulled steadily ahead, and held its lead to the finish, winning by a length and a quarter.

Coach Haines has decided to run all three of these crews again today against three crews of experienced oarsmen in the final run of the season. The start is scheduled for 3.30 o'clock.
