Just a few hours before the race Will receives news that his mother is dying. This is a frame-up by some fellows who have a large bet against the Varsity crew. William goes to his mother. On the road he is knocked unconscious by two men who are connected with the frame-up. Vivian arrives to see the race. She goes to the captain and tells him that she can act as coxswain. Will had often told the boys that Vivian was as capable in that position as he was. William has gained consciousness, and on his way to the club discovers that the missive was a frame-up. He is in time to see the Varsity crew win the big race. Vivian's dad gives them his consent. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
