COLUMBIA EIGHTS WIN TWO RACES WITH YALE DERBY, Conn, April 30.—Under rainy skies and over a smooth course Columbia crews made a clean sweep over Yale today in the rowing races on Lake Housatonic, winning both the Junior and varsity events, the former by three lengths and the latter by a léngth and a quarter. The time for each race was as follows: 1iinior—Columbia, 1048 2-5; Varsity—Columbia, 10.23; Yale, 10.203%. Yale took the lead at the start of the junior event, but before the first quarter was rowed Columbia was leading by a quarter of a length. At the end of the next quarter Columbia had increased her lead to a good length. As the race progressed Colum- bia constantly increased her lead. Yale also got the jump in the var- sity, but at the end of the first quar- ter ' Columbia was leading by an «ighth of a length. This she increased to half a lenzth at the next quarter, and as the mile mark was passed the Blue and White was leading by three- duarters of a length. This advantage she easily held to withi of the finish. e Then Yale, rowing desperately, gained a quarter of a length on her opponents. who suddenly put on steam and in a dash down the course, with apparently plenty of reserve strength, gained slowly on the Elis and went over the line with open water between the shell Yale, FRENCH SPORT PRIZE IS AWARDED TO FLYER _PARIS.

And that event I not only was splendidly contested, but it brought forth what perhaps was the most noteworthy performance by an individual during the afternoon. Campbell Runs Great Race. Tt was Campbell, last runner for Yale, who furnished the outstanding feature. In third place at the be- ginning of the final two laps, he had in front of him Eby of Pennsylvania and Higgins of Towa State, the latter a member of the team which broke the world two-mile relay record a week ago. Eby tried hard to get in front of Higgins on the backstretch on the last lap and did for perhaps fifty yard Higginy put forth all his efforts to- ward @talling off Eby's rush, and neither $eemed to take into considera- tion the Yunner just a few yards back. Higgink was leading fifty yards from the finish line, and as each pre- ceding Tewa runner had managed to develop sMfficient sprint and stamina in the streteh to get his mate in front it seemed to be a momentary suppos tion that lowa State, more familiarly known as Ames, would win. However, Campbell, despite the hard race he had run to make up the few yvards he was behind, with a show of more reserve power than anybody believed he had. or more than any ordinary star would have had, rushed by the struggling Ames and Pennsylvania runners and broke the tape a winner for Yale by four or five yards. Runs Half in 1.54. Just how brilliant was the effort of Campbell may well be realized when it is made known that he ran that last half mile in 134, a brilliant mark even on a track in excellent condition today. 3 4-5.
