The time was s:41, and the best previous perform
ance was s:fl 2-5, made by the navy two years
ego against Georgetown. COumbias time to-day
was 9:4S less than two seconds short Of the best
previous performance.
Contributing 70 the excellent time to-day were the
facts that the crews were favored by the tide and
some wind. They were somewhat handicapped.
however. by the fact that they had 70 paddle 20
point four miles above the Naval Academy before
the race began. This. too. against a heavy
wind. that dropped decidedly Just as the start was
made.
The navy crew got away in better shape and In
creased its lead 70 the end. The visitors rOWed IN
excellent FORM getting the blades in the water to-
gether. pulling them through cleanly and putting
steam on at the end, but IN all these phases OF
Craftsmanship the midshipmen had slightly the bet
ter OF it. and this advantage made the dineTencs
between the crews.

the local youths 70 pull themselves out. but this

BROOKLYN AUTO PARADE.
Many Cars IN Line IN the Ran to
Coney Island and Return.

The first annual parade Of the Long Island Auto
mobile Club was held in Brooklyn yesterday, and
aroused a good deal of interest All along the route
from Prospect Park Plaza to Coney Island groups
of persons formed and cheered the automobilists
The weather was perfect, and nearly all the cars
were we'll filled with passengers,
Although it was expected that some four hundred
cars would take part only 126 were in line. There
were machines of all kinds and makes. big
''sghtseeing' car. carrying fourteen girls dressed
in white, members of the Viola Bowling Club, was
one of the interesting features of the parade
Four bicycle policemen on motor cycles acted as
pacemakers. From the windows Of many OF the
residences along the route American flags were
strung in honor of the occasion. From a few hung
flags with the colors of certain automobile clubs.
TrWO-thIrd Of the automobiles In line carried the
colors of the Long Island Automobile club while
several carried the colOrs of the New York Motor
Club. The colors of the Richmond County Auto
mobile Club were also conspicuous. I. r. Hastings
had his ''tri' car in the parade and carried Chap
lain Handel. Of the New York Fire Department
The cars sent off I'm single file, and soon
some Of the machines began 70 hit II up ana
kent up a lively pace. Charles Jerome Edwards
who acted grand marshal, had instructed the
drivers TO go In double file when the boulevard
leading TO the beach was reached Little attention
was paid 70 his instruction, however. and some
lively scorching was ipdulged in Instead OF be-
ing two abreast the boulevard. often as many
as six OF the machines were abreast and running
al a lively pace. This raised clouds OF dust and
made Il disagTeeable for others who followed and
desired to travel at what should be parade limit
speed"
