A good many articles OF the Queens

The Regatta ON the Potomac.
xsKENNEY WINS THE SENIOR SINGLE scrYIIs

The race for senior single SOULS was
the second. 1t 2:l0 O'Clock the contestants
appeared at the starting line In the follow
ing order counting from the Virginia shore:
Morgan, Mckinney, Lake and .Crcpley. Lake
was the only starter from the Columbia
club, the others being PotomacS. The word was
given by the referee dropping his hat at the same
time, at 2:1S, two minutes ahead OF the time ap-
pointed. McKenny caught the water first and
Morgan second, and soon took the lead. Crop!ey
and Lake were far In the rear shortly after start
ing, Lake leading q little. The race soon divided
Itself between Morgan and McKenny and Cropley
and Lake. Before the first quarter was ended Lakes
oar struck buoy and overheard he went.
He was soon picked up by the Columbia barge,
which was near. At the end OF the first half mile
McKenny was leading Morgan ty about one length.
Both were rowing at the rate OF 30 10 the minute.
AT the end OF the first mile Mckinney had IN
creased his lead TO two lengths, and was appar-
emily rowing well within himself, but had quick
ened his stroke TO So Mckinney gained rapidly,
seemingly exerting himself but little. When Eas-
bys point was reached, Mckinney had lead OF
nifty yards Cropley was far In the rear, strug-
CLING with the swell from the tugs. Mckinney
continued to gain, ana crossed the line in 20 min.
Morgan In l0:f0. This race settled conclusively
the title OF championship between these two. This
has always been disputed.
