VARSITY RACE A TRREILER.
The varsity race was a. thrilling an
encounter % oarsmen a. has been seen
on this river and Il was this stream too
which saw the duel between Columbia
and Cornell in 1917.
The Pennsylvanians we're beaten half
length. but they were never much mors
than that behind Cornell. The promise
u Improvement that the Red and Blus
showed all throughout the Week was
more than borne out by this days rowing.
and young Reath did his father proud.
| Reath rowed a neyer-say-die race %
I the sort that ian't often seen and Tor q
lad q only 10 years. matched against ne
oldest crew on the Hudson. be performed
wonders. And what % the men behind
him. They too. those who had been hgured
out Of Il a cOuple Of weeks ago. rowed
beyond themselves. did better than any
crew Of Pennsylvania has done before
them. and pulled all the way with might.
Cornell won the race because the
Ithacans had the most powerful crew.
In the sloppy. chOppy going they had an
the advantage They could alug and
savage their way through the lr0th and
spume and roll hecause theirs was tbs
fOrcs, and that alone. They didn't row
down that course a. well a. did Penn
Eylvania. and had the Quaksus rowod as
poorly in point q form a. Cornell they
must have been beaten out q sight
But there was weight in tho Psnnsylvania
shell and the Philadslphians had the far
inside course. a decided advantages In
such weather a. the varsity race wa
started In this evening; they made the
most Of what they had. Il was like one
Of thoas Pennsylvania crows Of the Old
days when Ellis Ward was king of the
river.
NO cHANCE ron COLUMBIA.
