ton 17:38.10; California 17:44.9.
Freshman two mile California
11:08.6: Washington 11:12.7.
A brisk headwind from the

times;, and it was Impossible for
the oarsmen to aim at any of the
coarse records. " .
A throng estimated at approxi
mately 60.000 persons watched
the races from vantage points on
boats, trains, hilltops and houses
nnder a warm sun and bine shies,
