Vincent Straub Owned First Mill Race Canoe Vincent Straub, son of John Straub, donn emeritus, was owner of the first canoe to he paddled on the mill race. The canoe was one the owner had made and it served as a model for many other Eugene boys, who manufactured their craft by cutting barrel staves in half, joining them and stretching canvas over the ”V” shaped shell which resulted. The first canoe appeared about 1890. Dean Straub did not trust himself to the shaky little home made craft, but had a four-oared row boat, suitable for eight persons, in which he and his family with prince L. Campbell, then president « of the university, often took trips up the race. At that time the race was nearly as smooth as a lake, the speed of the current having been increased only in recent years.
