Rated in finish third behind Lowell and Eliot, the Deacon eight pulled up strong at the finish to nose out both Eliot and Lowell by half a length. As they got away on a good start, Lowell jumped into the lead, followed by Kirkland and Eliot. Adams never threatened.
These positions remained until, after passing the bridge, Kirkland raised their stroke slightly and forged into a lead they never relinquished. Eliot nosed in ahead of the tiring Bellboy boat, and Adams struggled across the finish ten lengths back. The times for the Henley course were 7:11 for Kirkland...
In the other matches, Kirkland swamped Dudley, 9-0, and Eliot nosed out Lowell, 5 1/2 to 3 1/2. The final standings: Won Lost Dunster 5 1 Leverett 5 1 Adams 3 3 Kirkland 3 3 Eliot 3 3 Lowell 2 4 Dudley 0 6

The first and second boats in each heat, namely, Lowell, Adams, Kirkland and Eliot, will meet Thursday afternoon to decide who shall meet Yale the following morning. At present it looks like Lowell as the winner by a narrow margin.
