...first and second graded crews from the Weld raced over the 1 7-8 miles course down stream yesterday afternoon. The first crew gave the second nearly four lengths start and at the finish had mad up a little over three lengths. Both crews rowed well.

Practice in this began very late, and has been greatly retarded by the constant changes in the back field due to injuries received by the regular players. As yet the men are uncertain about the signals, start slowly and form ragged and loose interference...
