NNAPOLIS. Md, May TN
n one Of the most thrilling
II races seen on the Severn in
4 4 years, Navy's varsity eight
cared crew today kept its
1927 record clean by defeating Har-
wards frst-string bladesmen over a
mile and three-quarters course, but
the Middies margin was only a scant
length as compared with the stretches
of open water that they opened be-
hind them in their two previous races.
From beginning to end the Crimson
rowers forced the Navy crew TO its
utmost and even the most enthus-
iastic supporters of the Midshipmen
were on the point of conceding a
Harvard victory, when the Sailors
opened UP over the last quarter and
Just succeeded in outsprinting their
heavier opponent.
Both eights started out with a
stroke count of 20 to the minute, but
frequent changes of pace found the
New Englanders just about 2 feet in
the van at the quarter-mile mark.
This slim margin gradually, but
steadily, was increased and almost as
often Navy would cut it down or
obliterate it.
Harvard had a definite lead. how
ever, after a mile and a quarter.
Here Navy began to pick up, sud
denly jumping it's stroke from 36 to
