NOT: WITHOUT MISHAPS The race has not been without - its mishaps. In 1859 Cambridge sank and Oxford won in 24min. 40sec. In 1925 Oxford sank and Cambridge won 21min. 50sec. In 1912 both CTEWS sank, the umpire called it no race and Oxford won the re-row the next Mon- day by six lengths.
When Oxford won last year they put end to the biggest sequence of wins known in the history of the sace, Cambridge's thirteen. Oxford's best ren is nine years, which they achieved twice, from 1861 to 1869 and from 1890 to 1898.
The record for the Putney to Mort lake course of 4 miles 374 yards is 18min 29sec., put up by Oxford in
1911
What will this year's race bring? Dead-heats, record times and water- "logged boats-am rare. But spectator and osramaA alike will look forward to, and undoubtedly get, a hard, ri- gorous contest in the tradition that has made the Boat Esce an event of universal stiznet
