Big Texan Tells of How He Led

Navy to Victory Over Cornell

haul us, ! knew We had n. We didn't
worry about Washington and the
rest.
You know. the coach must not
have thought much OF our chances.
He left us long before the race
started and he saw It ali from the
observation train. He even let US
select the shell we wanted TO use.
! guess he must be pretty happy"
What was the secret of the Mid
dies great showing in the big"
event after they had taken several
lckingS IN shorter races? Had they
been laying back" and concentrat-
ing on the Poughkeepsie?
Not at all" said the big Texan
We've been doing our level best
all year. but We Just didn't get
going right until today. We went
out there determined to come
through for coach. and every man
in the boat had Il in mind as he
went down the kiver. Every mar
was calm from start to finish, just
rowing his best.
For the first two miles VIC didn't

30 strokes 10 the minute and keep
ing Cornell back of as. Then. when
they stepped up their stroke. we went
M to about "a and held that to the
three mile mark.
We could hear the Cornell Ok
swain telling his men that w
couldn't hold It, that We would
tire in the last mile and they would
pass Us then. We answered that by
putting beat up to IS or 80
Tor The next half mile and then
showing it to SO or 80 for the last
half. We could have gone higher
than that II we had needed TO. but
by thai time We were out in front
and knew they couldn't overhaul us.
1T was n great feeling when We
slipped past the finish line. We've
thought VIC had a good crew for
the last two years. but VIC were
licked in 1929 and swamped last
year. This was the last chance for
five OF us and. boy. are we happy?"
