Moore of the Cornell crew wept while Coach Courtney | and the sturdy little Cornell stroke, | E. A. Briggs, who was only 5 feet, 6 inches tall and 138 pounds in; weight, tried in vain to console him | with the observation that “Cornell can’t win every time.” Ellis Ward, Penn coach, did a| wild war dance when his crew came | through in 1898.

Cornell, Columbia and Georgetown brought up the rear. bridge, we would have added an- other length to our margin,” de- clared Ward. He hugged all his men after the race.
