The "Corps," rather unexpectedly, were successful in the "Regatta." In the first event, a pulling race for whalers, the submarine representatives, coxed by C.P.O. Tallyn, showed the soldiers' crew a clean pair of heels, and won by many lengths. A sailings race in whalers followed. The military-manned boat, with Major W. H.
