Description
Photograph of a view of an Olympic rowing competition in Long Beach, 1932. At center is a long boat with a crew of eight rowers and a coxswain. At left, a motor boat with three occupants is traveling parallel to the other boat. A man with a large bullhorn is facing the row boat. The motor boat is creating a large wake on the otherwise smooth water. On the land in the distance, many oil derricks are visible, while low trees line the shore.
