The University four-oars raced in the Basin yesterday afternoon. Starting from the Cottage Farm Bridge the first crew gave the second six lengths handicap. Both crews left the mark rowing 38 strokes to the minute. The first four soon dropped to 36, which was maintained to the finish. At the three-eighths of a mile mark the boats were on even terms and at Harvard Bridge a length of open water had been gained by the first. The second crew finished a quarter of a mile below the bridge three lengths in the rear. The first continued over the full course to the Union Boat Club.
This morning the crews will take their last row before leaving for New London on Monday. The launch John Harvard left on Thursday and the shells will be shipped tomorrow morning.
The orders:
First four.--Stroke, Waite; 3, Morgan; 2, Meyer; bow, Wiggins; cox., Voorhees.
Second four.--Stroke, Eager; 3 Nelson; 2, Peabody; bow, Anderson; cox., A. Abeles.
