The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-07-30

over, contained excitement enough for
the entire afternoon. In the senior
event, four good crews battled for SUI
premacy, and while the Pennsylvania
Barge crew at the end pulled out
ahead, the Knickerbockers were but Il
short distance away, with the Mill
streams and the Vespers exactly ever
at the line.
After this race came the intermediate
eight-oared race, which was postponed
yesterday because of the accident to
the Vesper crew. The Atlanta crew of
Springfield dropped out, leaving the
New York athletics and the School boy
crew of the Boston A A to have it
out with the Vespers.
The latter got the best of the start,
but at the end of the -halfmile all three
We're practically on even terms. Coming
under the bridge, the Vespers had a
lead of half length, with the New
Yorks second and the B. A. A. third.
At the three-quarters of a mile, half
way to the finish, the B. A. A. got by
| the New Workers and started after the
Vespers. 1t was right here that the
| accident which probably robbed the
VeSpers of the race, occurred. King
who was rowing No. 2, suddenly broke
his rowlock, and without the slightest
hesitation jumped over the side of the
boat. The press boat took him aboard,
still clinging to his oar. When the
youngster saw his boat drop behind
from the lead, he was heartbroken. The
school boys won in hot finish With
the New Yorlls by quarter of 2
| length.
