...University crew led by a few feet. The men in both boats were rowing well and the splashing so pronounced in the first few strokes gave way to clean blade work. In the second half-mile Yale overcame Harvard's lead and was 1 second ahead at the mile flag. By the time that the 1 1-2 mile flag was reached the University crew, with a slow stroke, was rowing neck and neck with Yale. At about this point, Weeks, the Yale bow, lost the rhythm of his stroke, cutting short at the full reach and rushing his slide...

...over which the crews will race on June 28 was staked out today by H. C. Beckwith, inspector of customs, at New London, V. Chappell of Yale, and C. H. Schweppe '02, chairman of the regatta committee. The start of the course has been shifted considerably, the first mile flag being 100 feet west of its usual position.
