T-tlnexpectcdly,. the Navy ruled tho
lntereoIleglato seas today after a
lapse .of a half dozen, years.
t. ,Wheh nine-eight-oared prows start
le! in heavy rain in the climax race of
tJje. Intercollegiate regatta last eve
ning,, with an ebb tide beginning to
run fast, tho naval academy 'ft stul
wurts were Just a boatload of strong
backed, young men, going nowhere in
partucular so far as the experts and
most of the crowd, were concerned.
Less than 20 minutes later, this
snmo Navy boatload was acclulmcr
the victor In the classic four-mile
vurslty race down the Hudson as It
handed a clean-cut beating to the
heavily-favored , Cornell crew, de
fending champion. .
Astonishing Comeback
The Navy followed Washington's
last pace ior mo iirsc tnree miles,
stepped up tho beat going Into the
lata mile sufficiently to assume the
lead from the fading Huskies and
then had the stuff to withstand Cor
nell's desperato closing bid.
This Navy crew staged one of the
mosl astonishing come-backs In row
ing history after a disastrous early
ecution In which they hud taken lick
ings from Columbia, Harvard and
3y incuse.
Whether It wo Just the Navy's day
in sudden return to form or tho re
sult of a switch that sent Ray m on
P. Hunter of Sherman, Texas, to the
stroking position for tho first time
in his competitive career, these mid
shipmen rowed like champions. Their
time was 18 minutes 04 1-5 seconds,
tho third fastest time ever registered
on the Hudson for the four mile
