It has become a hard, stubborn fight and presupposing that the Yale race is no walk-over, no eight men can pull the four miles the second time in one week, with a fair prospect for success.

...There is very little prospect of an international intercollegiate boat race this year between a crew from Cambridge, England, and Harvard's eight.
