the best possible results from the prac-
tice.

zeal, is a Washington athlete and a pro-
duct of the Western High School. This

first year he has been as near the water
as he is this season, but despite that
fact he is rowing like a veteran and has
acquired a thorough knowledge OF row
ing, and is showing good form, plenty
of grit, enduring power and nerve, and
