Water this year has taken a sudden start and we have rowed, and won, two “foreign” races. On July 16th we rowed a scratch eight, which was originally intended to be of Old Westminsters, but as only four O.W.s could be got together the other places were filled up as follows

Bow.      H. White

2. W.H.A. Cowell O.W.

3. J. Troutbeck O.W.

4. F.R. Clarke O.W.

5. C. Tracey O.W.

6. J.P. Stainton

7. W. Brinton O.W.

Str.         E.W. Hussey

Cox.       E.T. Brandon

 

This was a decidedly strong crew as all but Clarke, who was in our eight last year, were or are in their college boats. The course was from Putney to Wandsworth Bridge. We had a slight lead at starting & soon increased it, eventually winning by nearly 2 lengths.

On the following Wednesday we rowed the Ariadne R.C. from Hammersmith to Putney. On starting we had slightly the lead, but after a few strokes our stroke rowlock smashed and our opponents were good enough to row back & wait until it was repaired. On starting again in about an hour the Ariadne boat went rapidly ahead at first and was clear of us before we had rowed beyond the Soapworks, but we managed to get level with them again at the Crabtree. It was a splendid race from the Crabtree to the Point, neither boat being at any time more than a couple of yards in front of the other, but we sprinted as we came round and won by half a length. After the race we paddled back to Hammersmith & were entertained most hospitably by the Ariadne Club.

The crews were
