 The pace soon told on Pennsylvania, however, and she gradually got back to console the Wisconsin men in the rear.
 Nearthe finish Georgetown spurted up almost to Syracuse, but the latter crew had little in reserve, and when called on by the coxswain easily went to the fore. leaving Georgetown to do it's ut most to save third place from the rap idly gaining Columbians.
 The four-oared varsity race was in teresting from the start to the remark ably mixed up finish. Syracuse. catch ing water first, rushed into a lengths lead in the first quarter of mile. Cor nell took away this lead by the time the bridge was reached, but to the surprise of every one. Syracuse spirited gamely at the end, passed the tired Ithacans, and was steadily gaining as the finish line was crossed.

 i The picture on the Hudson to-day was the most brilliant the followers of aquatics have seen for many years. I The weather was nearly as ideal as pos sible, in sharp contrast to the miserable
 rain and grayness of a year ago. The
 wind, which during the morning hours had threatened difficulty died away in the afternoon and when the varsity l shells lined up at the start of the "big I race the Hudson was almost as smooth
