The first half of this race was a good one. It lay throughout between numbers two and four. As the boats began to turn the bend at the middle of the course, Brown's crew was leading, with Page half a length behind. At this point Cheney forced Ogden, who had been keeping as close to the windward shore as possible, to swing out farther into the stream. The tide was running very strong, and number four was carried out of its course towards the opposite shore. The second boat felt the tide much less, and here took the lead. At the stake the two boats turned together. Page now began to draw away very quickly, increasing his lead every moment until the line was crossed two good lengths ahead. Lemoyne's crew were third.
For the four-oared race there were four entries. The inside crew took the lead and kept it to the finish. It was made up as follows:-
M. R. Jacobs, '79, stroke,
H. Denton,
T. M. Sloane, '77,
W. S. Miller, '78,
J. R. W. Hitchcock, '77, cox.
