stroke until they had held tho watch
themselves and counted them.
Just as the shells swept into the last
half-mile OF the race, Stroke Boulton of
Yale let go his first real squirt. Up went
his stroke from 2S 10 30 and then TO 35 TO
the minute. Boulton at the end OF the race
was striking the gait which Harvard
struck at the beginning OF the race. Har-
ward had made her squirt and she could
not make another one. IL was this squirt
which won the race for Yale. But Har-
ward was not easily whipped Although
the Ellis raised their stroke seven points
they only crept away from Harvard on
this last mile by inches at a time. Little
by little. however. Yale forged her sheN
ahead. but she was not able TO show
clear water between the boats before the
flag dropped. Her victory was won by a
scant boat length.
Two better trained crews never rowed a
race, and likewise two better fighting
eights have never measured off their
strength against each other. The time OF
21 minutes and 10 seconds up stream is the
fastest time on record for an upstream
race. The record for the course is % min
utes and 10 seconds, but this was made
down stream with tide and wind.
The rowing OF Yale's crew, which man
for man was not physically the equal OF
Harvard's. is the greatest achievement OF
John Kennedy, the Blues professional
coach. He has never before demonstrated
his power and ability as a coach as he
did In this crew which he developed out of
inferior material and made into one of the
best racing machines that Yale has ever
produced.
The difference between the two crews
was simply that Yale used her strength
more economically than did Harvard. The
Ellis stroke was rounded out and the men
rowed 1t so perfectly that they did not
seem TO be making an effort. Harvard
with greater power and rowing from four
10 five strokes more to the minute was
unable TO get away from this Yale crew.
