The Freshmen, aided by a strong wind, scored twice in the first fifteen minutes, and secured a lead of twelve points that the Sophomores could not overcome.

George, who was leading slightly, took Wheelwright's water just at the finish, so that Wheelwright was forced to run into him to keep from going ashore. George finished a half a length ahead, but the race was given to Wheelwright. The race for four oared shells was won by only ten feet with both crews spurting at a high stroke. The best event of the regatta was the race of the eight-oared...
