Especial to The Washington Times.)


ANNAPOLIS. Md. May 24.-The Naval
Cadet boat crew closed their boating
season here today. rowing the final race
with the Weld crew of Harvard Uni
versity on the Severn River this after
noon. The race was the most finely
contested one ever rowed on the river,
and although defeated by the close time
OF one second and the narrow margin
OF ten feet the "middies" rowed their
best race of the season.
The race was pulled over the upper
or Severn course. two miles straight-
away. against both tide and wind. and
the time OF 10 minutes and 1 second,
made by the winning crew. was con-
sidered the fastest ever made in a race
on the Severn. allowing for the disad-
vantage Of wind and tide.

Neither Had Advantage.

For the first half mile both crews
rowed IN an even manner. but at the
three quarters mile navy had pulled a

ward soon ov1rcame this. Their stroke
was then 81. and they we're about an
eighth of length to the good on the
"middics" After this Harvard's stroke
dropped to 80 and navy was rowing SO,
the latter again getting a few
feet ahead of the crimson oarsmen.
Both crews rowed in this position until

creased it's stroke TO 50 and began to
gradually crawl Up on the navy until

The uncertainty OF horse racing is
well exemplified In the case Of the two
Whitney horses that went to England a
few months ago. When Nasturtium went
aboard the steamer he was accompanied
by a thoroughbred from the Whitney
stable as a travelling companion. No
one seemed TO know the name of the
horse. and he was described as a poor
plater-a sort of valet for his aristo-
cratic stablemate. Nasturtium came
back few days ago a roarer. not hav-
ing started in a race in England. His
companion on the trip. who was given
the somewhat significant name of In
truder. won n good race from good
horses. and Is now said to be a prom

was third. and O'Connor fourth.

open tomorrow. and racing will be con-
tinued there till June 6. Harlem opening

them on Memorial Day.
