The University eight paddled easily down stream to the three-mile mark and back again, and the other crews took things easy on account of the heat.

Peabody, of Malden High defeated J. A. Gee, of Exeter, 6-4, 3-6, 8-6. Herd usually plays a slashing game, somewhat after the style of McLoughlin, with very swift service. He placed poorly at the start yesterday, however, and his unsteadiness cost him the first set with Caner, who was placing very well.
