President Wilson's Boston speech, which touched upon rather than described or discussed the League of Nations, was a straightforward, manful appeal to high motives and farsight in public policy, which is the President's trump, and apparently the highest in the pack.

The race was rowed against a high head wind over a mile course from a point just below the Harvard Bridge to the finish at the Cottage Farm Bridge. Just after passing under the Harvard Bridge Trump took the lead away from Eaton, and after this was never headed. Trump rowed in a compromise, which gave him an advantage over the others who were all in single scills as it was much better suited...
