They were unable to hold this lead, however, for Thayer, with a short, fast stroke, quickly caught and passed them. Randolph and Russell, who were nearest the Cambridge shore then fell a little behind, rowing a slow, clean stroke. Claverly and Mt. Auburn street were following, nearly even, about a length of open water behind Thayer.

O'Flaherty used very good judgment in his selection of plays. His drop-kick was perfect, the ball going over the bar from...
...first division of yesterday's bumping races, the first three crews maintained their relative positions almost without change. At the second turn Randolph nearly caught Claverly, but was unable to hold the gain and soon dropped back to its former position.
