After a slight delay, caused by rough water on the course, the boats were sent into position. Columbia had won the toss, and had chosen the west side of the course. At the word both crews got away in good form, though Columbia had manifestly the advantage of the start...
...south-west corner; and towards the juniors the freshmen will sit next, leaving three feet between them and the sophomores along the south side to the south-east corner. The graduates will sit from the southeast corner towards the entrance.

The freshmen are a light, quick set of men, but do not row in good form, and one wonders that they get over the water as fast as they do. Both crews seem determined to make a good record...
