ing greater stamina and physical
endurance. the Annapolis Midship-
men again went to the front In
college Craftsmanship today by de-
feating the varsity and freshmen
crews of Syracuse University. Of
New York. on the Severn River.
The races were rowed over a
course OF two miles. and the Navy
seniors finished fourteen lengths
to the good of their rivals. while
the plebes were four lengths to
the fore of the Syracuse freshmen
as they shot their shell across the
hnish line.
Greater interest naturally CEN
varsity eights. but the brush be-
tween the freshmen crews de-
veloped the most spectacular con-
test of the regatta. IL is doubt
iul if a more nip and tuck battle
mas ever been before witnessed on
the Severn. The contending, crews
were neck and neck until the last
ooo yards stretch of the course
IN the varsity event both crews
we're sent away to a good start, ana
tor snort time IL appeared as
though the contest would be a rene
utution OF that between the freshmen
crews. as they rowed along nm
practically even terms for the rrst
800 or 500 yards. but after that IL
was plainly evident that there was
more power behind the navy oars
and IT remained only a question as
10 the distance by which the navy
lads would win.
When the half mile point was
reached the midshipmen had nearly
q boat length of open water on their
opponents and this they steadily
increased over the balance of the
course. At no time did the Syra-
cuse varsity lads look dangerous, in
spite of their plUcky ight.
The rival crews were boated as
