AQUATICS.

BOAT RACE FOR ONE HUNDRED POUNDS

The long-expected rowing match between Geo. Drewitt
and Thomas POcock came off yesterday, and was a very
hollow affair, although it had been expected that it would
be a very close one. In effect it was only won by a short
distance, but in reality the winner did what he liked with
the loser, although for some reason best known to himself
he made it appear to be a close race. Drewitt is a lands-
man, of Chelsea, about 23 years of age, and is a fine strong
young-fellow when in good health, which is of rare occur-
rence. Pocock is a waterman, of Lambeth, and has proved
himself, both below and above bridge, to be a very good
sculler. At first Pocock was the favourite, but as it became
known that Drewitt was all right and rowing very fast the
odds settled down upon him, and ultimately money went
begging on him at nearly 2 to 1, 10 to 6 being about the
average. _ _

They, rowed from Putney Aqueduct to Barnes Railway-
bridge, the shortened metropolitan course, for £5O a-side,
in outriggers, and were accompanied by Citizen B, Captain
Turner, who, like Captainglawkins, on Wednesday, gave
the hindmost man an equal;ehance with the foremost one.
The umpires were Henry Pocock for his brother, William
Blake for Drewitt, and Mr. Newnham was referee. Unlike
the weather of Wednesday, it was very smooth, but cold.
Pocock obtained the best place. They started very evenly,
and remained so to the Star and Garter, where Pocock led
slightly,: but Drewitt soon overhauled and passed him.
After going ahead Drewitt never once exerted himself, but
kept about the same lead all the way, and ultimately won
easily by two or three lengths, Pocock rowing a very game
stern lace throughout the whole of the distance.
