Summary: Starting with shots of the crews carrying their boats into the river, this film records key moments from the 1914 boat race, with the rowers wearing scarves to guard against the spring chill. Cambridge were victors and lead from the start – the film shows the boats advancing towards a bridge, and also captures the victorious crew back on dry land with crowds of well-wishers.
