Taking an early lead, the first experienced Freshman crew yesterday won the final race of the season by a half length against seven other eights from the Freshman, Varsity, and 150 pound squads.
The dash down the three-quarter mile course, which ended at the Massachusetts Avenue Bridge, was run off at 4.30 o'clock when at Bert Haine's command the 64 oars hit the water. A cross wind made the blade work sloppy, but the first-year men crossed the finish line after 4 minutes and 10 seconds, with the third Varsity and 150 pound crews coming in not far behind. Fourth, fifth, and sixth positions were taken by three crews of inexperienced Freshmen, stroked by Myer, Bennett, and McClennan. The tail-enders were the two other boats of experienced Freshmen.
The winning shell was manned as follows: Stroke, Locke; 7, Brooks; 6, Erickson; 5, Gardiner; 4, Chace; 3, Senior; 2, McVickar; Bow, McVeigh; Cox, White.
