NEW YORK, June 30.-Columbia' s
magnificent victory in the 4-mile

Joy to many aside from the alumni,
undergraduates and general well
wishers of the institution on Morning

Washington second. and in 1926,
Washington first. with the Navy in
the runner-up berth.
1t had come to resemble a vicious
circle-annual dinner parties in which
the guests devour practically all the
food.
Until Columbia turned In a very at
tractive time row last week there
was no reason to believe that the
story of recent years would have to
be altered and even in the face of the
knowledge that the Blue and White
were likely to be dangerous, fear of
the Navy rode even the most enthu-
siastic Columbians like an incubus.
Washington received less. respect
than, as it turned out. she deserved.
And maybe, had it not been for the
bitter rivalry against California and
a burning desire to reverse the unas-
sailable verdict of the Pacific Coast
regatta on the Oakland estuary last
April, when the Golden Bears dis
tanced the Seattle varsity ship, the
Huskies might not have been the
runner-up.

Washington has finished either first

bias victory.
The sailors were a poor fourth, six
lengths behind the victors. barely able
to beat out Cornell and Syracuse,
which were only a second apart in a
battle for fifth place won by the
Ithacans. 1t was the first time since
the war that the Middies had failed
to finish either first or second. The
worst they had ever done was third,
in 1907. their first appearance in the
regatta. They rowed yesterday. how
ever, with a substitute No. Z. who
had been in the boat only three days.
Whatever slim chances Pennsyl-
vania entertained of being up among
the leaders were blasted when the
Quaker shell hit submerged log in
the first quarter mile. causing a crack
in the boat, which was half full of
water by the time the Red and Blue
oarsmen got to the finish, outdis-
tanced. They were approximately Is
lengths behind the winners.
Huskies Outrow Bears.
Washington lost little prestige even
if the Huskies did lose the varsity
title. They won the three-mile junior
varsity race for the third straight
year. leading Columbia by three
lengths in record breaking time. Their
varsity. as runner-up, kept intact the
Husky record of never being
worse than second in six straight
years. They have won three times
and been runner-up as many others.
There was almost as much JOY for
Washington in conquering its Pacific
Coast rival decisively as there would
have been in leading the whole field
home.
Reversing. their early season result,
the Huskies were three lengths ahead
of the Golden Bears, who led for two
of the first three miles. but faltered
as Columbia and Washington came
fast in the final mile. California was
third to the same brace of rivals in
the junior varsity race, but finished
poor sixth in the freshman race.
The Navy salvaged it's only triumph
in this freshman event, when the
crack Plebes outrowed Syracuse, with
Columbia, Cornell, Penn, California
and Wisconsin trailing in that order.
