...Princeton had gained a sizeable lead at the getaway, and held it easily almost until the end of the fast 1 3/4 mile course, finishing in 9 minutes, 18 seconds, as compared with the Crimson boat, which crossed the line in 9 minutes, 27 seconds. M.I.T. came in a poor third, about three lengths behind Harvard, in 9 minutes, 46 2-5 seconds...
