Today the second University crew will row in the Stewards' Cup race in the American Henley on the Schuylill River.

Yesterday afternoon four races of the annual spring regatta were held over the mile course in the basin, all of the contests were very close, one of the races resulting in a tie for three out of five crews entered in the race.
Boston Latin Wins Four-Oar
The first race of the afternoon, rowed over the mile course from Cottage Farm Bridge to the Harvard Bridge, was that between the second school fours, in which four crews were entered. The Brookline High School and Browne and Nichols fours jumped ahead at the start; then Brookline drew ahead of the Browne and Nichols crew until she had three lengths of open water at the half-mile. Boston Latin High School drew up on Browne and Nichols, rowing practically even for the rest of the race, but Boston Latin crossed the finish line before Browne and Nichols, about four lengths behind Brookline High.
The third event of the afternoon's schedule was the race between the first school fours, the preliminaries for which were held on Thursday. Five crews were entered and three of them tied at the finish line: Browne and Nichols, Noble and Greenough and Cambridge Latin. The tie will be settled at an early date, although the definite day has not yet been set.
Seventh '23 Crew Leads
The seventh 1923 crew was the victor in the fourth contest, winning over the Boston Interscholastic crew by a lead of about half a length.

3.30-Schoolboy eights.
4.00-Intermediate eights.
