The second and third university crews fared badly in the American Henley regatta in Philadelphia Saturday. In the second university event the Quaker eight, captained by Medholdt, crossed the Henley distance mark three lengths ahead of Annapolis, which led Syracuse by a half length and the University by two lengths. The Crimson oarsmen kept abreast of their rivals up to the last quarter mile, but thereafter failed to maintain their position, although nosing out the Princeton boat.
In the third university race, the University crew fell behind largely because the Crimson stroke was lower than its competitors. Over the first part of the distance the Crimson boat held its own at a lower stroke than Yale, Princeton, or Penn. Welaman did not raise the stroke until the last 500 yards, in which the Crimson eight gained steadily, losing to Yale by a little over a length and to Pennsylvania by nearly three. The Princeton shell trailed by several lengths.
