Scoring its third sweep in as many weeks, Harvard's four undefeated crews won all their races Saturday afternoon against Columbia and Technology.
The Varsity and the Freshmen had little difficulty in their clashes, the former winning by five lengths over Columbia and over Tech by a couple more, while the Yardlings were two and a half lengths away from Tech and had four on the Lions.
The closest race of the day, as had been generally expected, came in the Lightweight event, where Bert Haines' boat still more firmly established itself with the best 150 pound crews in the country by defeating Tech and Columbia.
This Tech crew had previously beaten Princeton, while the Columbia fifties won from Yale in the Blackwell Regatta a week ago, so that on a basis of comparative results Harvard will enter the eight-crew Henley regatta at Princeton a favorite.
The Jayvees were slightly extended in a race with the Union Boat Club, eventually winning by about two lengths.
