CREWS B AND C RACED SATURDAY

Third Boat Had Slight Advantage.--1919 First Defeated Second.

In the first races Coach Herrick has permitted any of the crews since the first two University boats met Princeton on Lake Carnegie during the spring recess, University C beat B three times and B won from C twice last Saturday. The new eight-oared shell built for the use of the University crews at Ward's shipyard in New Jersey was used for the first time on the river. It proved to be satisfactory in every way. At the Union Boat Club, Coach Herrick had the two crews stop and change shells, giving University B, which had been racing with C in the new boat, a chance to try out the boat itself.

A race was also rowed between the first two Freshman crews. The first boat led the second all the way, finishing several lengths ahead.
