 stroke, the Els soon were on even terms with the crimson and at the first half-mile flag were leading Harvard by half boat length. Then Yale settled down into her gait of 2S strokes to the minute, which she held up to the two and a half mile flag. Harvard raised her stroke to 34 and cut down Yale's lead.
 The Ellis for a few strokes ran their. up to S1 and at this gait held Harvard even.
 Noses of Shells zig-zag.
 The boats did not change positions over the next half mile. At the three mile flag the noses of the shells were zizigzagging and 1t was still either's ant neithers race, Yale had dropped he] stroke, however, to 2S to the minute While Harvard was still rowing 94 About this time it dawned upon the Harvard experts that Yale might have something up her sleeve. Old Harvard oarsmen like D. c. Darrow, would no, believe that Yale was rowing such 6 low stroke until they had held the watch themselves and counted them.
 Yale sprints.
 Just as the shells swept into the las half mile of the race Stroke Boultor of Yale let go hls first real squirt. Ul went his stroke from 2S to 30 and ther to S5 to the minute, Boulton at the en( of the race was striking the gait whlcl Harvard struck at the beginning of th race. Harvard had made her spurt ant she could not make another one. I was this spurt which won the race fo, Yale, But Harvard was not easily whipped. Although the Ellis raised their stroke seven points they only crept away from Harvard on this las mile by inches at time, Little b, lEttle, however, Yale forged her shel ahead but she was not able to show clear water between the boats befor tha flag dropped Her victory was woj by scant boat length.
 Lunt Rows Fine Race.
 Lunt, who replaced Glass in tn Harvard shell at No. 6 two days age rowed magnificent race. If Harvar missed him it was because Glass migh possibly have pulled a little more, bu he certainly could not have rowed better race than did Lunt. The crimso can hardly claiil that the loss of Glas meant the loss of the race, for Lun finished the race in good form. The onl man In the Harvard boat who shove any sign of over-exhoustion was Sev erance at No 5. As the flag fell at tn finish his oar slipped out of his hand and he fell over on the knees of Cap tain Bacon. He quickly revived, how ever and sat up and rowed over to Re Top with his crew.
 Two Finely Trained Crews.
 Two better trained crews never row ed a race And likewise two bette fighting eights have never measured of their strength against each other. Tn time of 21:10 up stream is the fastes time on record for an upstream race The record for the course Is 20:10 bu this was made down stream with tid and wind. The rowing of Yale's crew which man for man was not physical, the equal of Harvard's, Is the greates achievement of John Kennedy, tn blues professional coach. He ha never before demonstrated his powe and ability as coach as he did in thl crew which he developed out of lnferio material and made into one of the bes racing machines that Yale has eve produced.
 Yale Saves Her Strength.
 The difference between the two crew was simply that Yale used her strengtl more economically than did Harvard The Ellis stroke was rounded out ant the men rowed 1t so perfectly that the, did not seem to be making an effort Harvard with greater power and row ing from four to five strokes more t the minute was unable to get ava, from this Yale crew.
 The whole story of the race is told fl these few words.
 When the race was finished 1t wa growing dusk and the scene around tn finish line was one that will never b forgotten by those who were fortunat enought to be present.
 First the yacht cannon boomed ou and then the whistles and sirens start ed weird concert which was inter spersed with the chug-chug of the mo tor boats, which began to dart up ant down and across the river. Before Ney London was reached 1t was night ant the lights on the yachts began to shint out one by one. Suddenly the broa, river became a fairy stream, a pictur that never before has marked the end ing of a Yale-H Harvard race, Ther, have never been so many yachts as semlbled on the river as this afternoon and 1t has never happened that rae has been rowed up stream so late il the day.
 The Races To-day.
 The postponed freshman elgl1t-oare, race and varsity four-oared race vii be rowed up stream tomorrow morn. ing at half-past ten o'clock and a goot portion of the crew remained in Nev London for these races.
 Mir. Wray, coach of the Harvard crew said after the race:
 "There is nothing much to say. O course the better crew won, and W, have no complaint. My crew did al they could to win, and all I expected The change of Lunt for Glass, caused by the illness of the latter, may hay, had effect, but probably would not havt changed the result. As said, the bet ter crew won"
 Captain Bacon felt the defeat of hi crew, and had nothing to say.
