water was In faultless condition. Racing

was practically over. as far as the hrst and
second crews we're concerned The subse-
quent attempts to straighten out the tangle
only made matters worse.
A rather remarkable incident occurred In
the unofllcial scramble between the Union and
Institute doubles later In the evening. The
Institute pair were 40 hard pressed for the
lead that they forgot the existence OF partly
submerged island Of long weeds until they had
lifted their shell right on II. With marvellous
presence OF mind they propelled their craft
right across the obstruction and into the clear
water on the other side. where they got going

for the Lone Star and Atalanth crews. The varunAs

Junior Double scuils-This robbed OF any
sembance OF fair contest by series OF unfortunate
complications. There were four starters. The Union
and staten Island crews got within forbidden range
Psatedly The institute pair alipped away soon after
WI nout Interfering with sny body. After fnishing
the rst mile tho Atalantas tackled the river and
race and restarted all for three:rurIong dash Tho
other competitors made such strong kick
that the race reAarted after the last
event on tho programme This time the Staten Island
ers and the Atalanas foued each other before six
teenth was rowed. Tho referee ruled the Islanders
out and called tho others back for fresh start The
Unions and Institutes kept rowing, while the Alta
antas, who padded over the course Q quarter mile
behind, got the decision.
