Yale'S beefy varsity crew
hoisted it's eight-oared shell
from the water, swung it over
head and trudged to the boat
tents. After securing the equip
ment, the blue and white-shirted
athletes mingled with the crowd
of 500 awaiting the arrival of
the Navy shell.
A few minutes earlier. this
dark horse entry from Old Eli
almost had accomplished the
rowing upset of the decade. If
any crew was supposed to end
Navy's streak at 25, it was Penn,
or maybe Cornell, in. the varsity
finals of the Eastern Inter-
collegiate sprint championships
off Hains Point late yesterday
afternoon.
Yale was seeded fifth in the
field Of IL varsity crews from
the Eastern Association Of Row
ing Colleges, a long way down
in a sport that follows form as
much as does rowing. At the
finish line the Middies prevailed
again, but half "a length back
was the Yale shell, finishing less
than two seconds behind with q
burst that clipped Penn by q
| talf-length for second place.
Presently the champions, de-
tanned by the awards ceremonies
at the finish line on the Poto-
mac, rounded the point and
headed into the launching slip
in Washington Channel.
The back-slapping that ensued
was pleasant pain on the weary
shoulders of the Navy boatmen.
Coxswain Jim Greer Of Yale
intercepted Coxswain Bill Ken
nington of Navy on the way to
the tents. Good race" grinned
Coxswain Greer. Terrific" re-
joined Remington. "You gave
us a terrific battle" The express
sion on Kennington's face carried
more than just the customary
congratulations.
