Her College Oarsmen Easily Defeat Yale
and Harvard.
YALE CAPTURES SECOND PLACE I
Though the Time Made Does Not Equal the
Record, the Winners Showed That
Tbey Could Have Made Better
Time If Pushed.
Potighkeepale, N. T., June 20. Cor
nell won the greatffour mile univer
sity race yeterdftjr afternoon in 20
minutes and 34 seconds. Yale was sec
ond by threfe length and a half, In
10.44, and Harvard came In five lengths
astern of Yale, In 21 minutes.
It was a victory ot American grit,
American methods and American train
ing as against American grit coupled
with Knglish methods and English
training, A crew of American
college youths trained under an
American coach won from two
other American college crews In
an eight oared contest, the other two
crews having- studBfl, the one under
an American coach'Vith a mixture of
EngllBh and American methods, and
the other dlscardlhg all American
tenchlngs and metlteds and Importing
an Knglish conch fh an endeavor to
prove a superiority for Hanley meth
ods. No such contest over occurred In
this country before, Cornell university
has not been able 'to meet Yale uni
versity on the water since 1875 and
then, ns yesterday, she defeated the
boys Of the blue.
Harvard, with her newly acquired
English methods, finished over eight
and half a length behind the Cornell-
CnAItT.ES B. COURTKKV.
lans. Her pight were thoroughly ex
hausted, while the exponents of Ameri
can theory ns applied to the propul
sion of eight oared shells finished at n
hot pace, without any distress being
apparent. The tide was slack, the wind
favored no particular crew, and abso
lutely nP favor of any kind was shown
by nature toward the result. The race
was rowpd entirely on ttB merits.
The race also set a conclusion upon
the long mooted question concerning
weights. Yale stripped Into their boat
nt an average of 171 pounds; Cornell,
IBS, Yale used every pound of Its "beef"
on the leverage ot Its oars, and nt
times with a nervousness which made
tho boat fairly lift from the water.
Cornell employed her trained down
muscle without beef In a leisurely, con
fident manner, that pulled her at every
stroke toward victory. It was a singu
lar coincidence that the English
trained prew, Harvard, pursued ox
actly the same methodB as to the num
ber of strokes per minute as did the
winning crew, and although they
weighed on an average ten pounds
heavier than Cornell's men, that extra
weight told fop nothing, and either
from top much "fineness" In training
or lack of ability to pull tho stroke set
for them, they wore practically "dead"
after tho second mile. It Is also curious
to nota that Cornell pulled oxactly the
same kind of stroke and tho same
number of strokes to tho minute that
sho pulled last year, when she won in
record breaking time, and that Har
vard, while advertising that she had
entirely pew methods, was defeatedrh
oxactly the same manner that, defeat
met her last year. Briefly, the result of
tho race Is that Cornell asserts her
superiority In rowing, methods of train
ing and capability over the two larger
universities, and she still holds the
record for Intercollegiate eights of
19.29, which she made last year.
The race was one of the most bril
liant In the history of aquatics In this
country. Tho crews started with a
stroke of 32 for Cornell and 36 for Har
vard nnd Yale. Harvard gained a slight
advantage over the others at the start,
and the usual note of Jubilation went
up from the Harvard adherents. It was
apparent within the first quarter mile
that the Cornell crew was using the
tamo method that tok them on to" vic
tory last year, that of a slow and tell
ing stroke, that would wear out their
ppponentB. The boats travelled swiftly,
although It was easily noticeable that
the tide was at a slack and that the
conditions did not favor record break
ing. Yale, with a quick stroke, hung
In the rear until after the first quarter
have little effect, the boat of Cornell
fought It out.
Cornell forged to the front before the
end of the first mile was reached, and
then began a struggle for place between
Yale and Harvard's old enemies. Har
vard struggled valiantly, but before the
end of the mile and a half was In tho
rear of Yale. Cornell, never varying
the stroke, went on with that easy,
swinging stroke, little Colson, In the
ooxswaln's box, cautioning them not to
run away with It. Harvard, acting
4nder the Instructions of their training
master, used at many points the same
stroke as to numbers, but It seined to
have little effect, the boat of Cor-uell
running away from Harvard.
At the two mile point the Yale crew
were going away from Harvard, and
the latter seemed unable to prevent It,
although they were rowing away at
the long 32 stroke that had been pre
dicted as a winning one. After Yale
got away from Harvard she turned her
latently to Cornel and Just beyond
me iifeeonn mne Thane a aespprate spurt
lo catch the slim youngsters, N ver for
a moment did the white shlrted lads
from Cornell get rattled. Backward and
forward went the sweeps with arltli
rnVtlcal movement and powerful swing
that was surprising to watch. Tlio
weighty youngsters from Yale used
every pound of leverage on the end of
the oar, but they could not bring their
boat alongside of the swiftly moving
craft of the Cornell boys.
The Harvard men were rowing In a
very weak fashion during this next
mile, and It was evident that they were
thoroughly used up. At the bridge the
coxswain of the Harvard crew had to
give the Harvard stroke a little water
In his face, and for a moment, under
the reviving Influence, the boat swung
along at a goodly pace. Hut only for
a moment, and Just as they passed tho
big bridge the stroke began to give
way. Cornell was rowing at 32, and
Yale was working away at 33 and 31,
and evidently tired.
The last mile of the race was prob
ably one of the most sensational In the
history of college aquatics sensational
not so much from the tact that It re
corded the defeat of the crews of the
two leading colleges of the United
States, but that It demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the majority of those
who have watched the work of the
crews, and the different methods pur
sued in their training, that the Leh
mnnn and Cook strokes must bow to
the superiority of the Courtney modl-
ucation ot the two, and that, wlilli
weight and brawn are factors, They
must lie combined with skill.
Hcfore they reached the third mile
post Yale had begun to spurt, and the
eight powerful represent, lives of old
Eli s muscle and stamina bent to their
work with a wonderful exhibition of
sheer Will power, for tholr strength was
gone. For a period of perhaps three
minutes the dying struggle of the
giants lasted, and they gained a little
on the flying leaders, and poor old Har
vard, with nearly evory man exhaust
ed, clunc with the tenacity of bull
dogs In the wake of her old time rivals.
But It was a hopeless struggle, nnd
surely and steadily the flying repre
sentatives of the red and white, never
changing their steady stroke of 32 to
the minute, drew away ns If they were
enjoying an afternoon spin Instead of
participating in a contest that will go
down In hiBtory as tho greatest race
ever witnessed In American water. As
they approached the finish line it was
seen that the Hnrvard eight were
neftrly to a man in difficulties, while
several of the Yale men .'Were Hying
Siffnals of distress. Then the Cornell
orow, as if In mockery at the dis
comfiture of their rivals, Increased
their stroke to 31 and shot past the
judges' boat every man as fresh, ap
parently, as when he started, and, as
If not satisfied with their wonderful
exhibition, rowed for a quarter of a
mile down the liver, first giving three
rousing cheers to the man who bad
coached them to victory, Charles E.
Courtney.
Ten seconds after Cornell Yale
crossed the lino nnd Immediately stop
ped rowing, with No. 2 (Whitney) and
No. 3 (Campbell) In a state of collapse.
Then came Harvard, 1G seconds be
hind, her entire crew used up and three
at the men utterly helpless. Hardly
had the nose of her shell reached the
finish when Boardinan, stroke, fell
hack off his sent. Vy'rlghtlngton, nt No,
3, and J. P. Perkins, at No. 5, also lost
their oars, and their companions com
menced to splaBh water over them. In
the meantime Goodrich, captain, was
trying to raise Boardmen, but was too
weak, and the coxswain was throwing
water over the two. After a long wait
for their launch, which could not get
through the"rowd of yachts, the men
were carefully taken to their quarters.
After the race the Cornell crew were
taken on board their launch, which
steamed proudly across to th boat
house, where a crowd of 2,000 men, wo
men and boys had assembled and were
waving flags, handkerchiefs and plecen
of bunting. The oarsmen had to fairly
fight their way through the crowd Into
the boathouse. Once inside, they were
surrounded by undergraduates, and the
enthusiasm knew no bonds. Courtmy
and his men were overwhelmed iiy
telegrams of congratulations from all
parts of the country last evening.
There could be no relaxation In the
training of tho crew, as their superb
condition must be maintained for the
race with Pennsylvania and Columbia,
so the men sat down to the training
table at C:30 p. m. aa though they had
Just como in from an ordinary prac
tice row.
