With blue skies overhead, Healani
blue reigned supreme yesterday in the
Regatta Day rowing races pulled on
in Honolulu harbor. But for the fact
that in the junior pairoared race the
Myrtles absolutely refused 10 lie down
10 the Healanis. the latter would have
made clean sweep Of the events on
the day s program. Aside from the
junior pair-oared race the Healanis
swept tho boards and did it in easy
fashion.
No better day for rowing races
could have been expected There was
anelight breeze blowing down through
Nnuabu Valley, which tempered evenly
the atmosphere over the bay. The
skies were blue real Healani blue
mt, withal, the sun was considerably
shaded and the result was an ideal dag

"A Game Struggle
As 10 the races the great feature Of
The day was the game struggle between
the Junior palf-oar crews Of the
Mtftles and the Healanis, which re
suited, ON the first try, in a dead
heat and ON the second in the only
viotOfy obtained during the day by
thesred and white Of the. Myrtles, an
this only by mere half length.
On the dead heat announced by the
judges in the junior pair-oar. thert
seems some doubt for people who were
in a position to Judge claim that the
MYrtles really won this race by foot
The fact remains, however, that on
the second try the Myrtles set aside
ali doubts and won by half length.
