Supporters Of the University OF
! Washington take serious objection
to the way Coach Wallis of Cali
fornia has explained the defeat of
his crew by Washington
In the dual regetta. held ON Lake
Washin gton, California was de-
feated by some fifteen lengths.
This easy victory of Washington
over California. caused the eastern
crew coaches to sit up and take
notice. Itscaused Washingtons var
sity crew to gain instant respect.
In the midst of much praise that
was being bestowed on The Wash
ington crew, Coach Wallis of Cali
fornia took all the joy out of life
for that institution. by giving a
version of the race that took muc.I
OF the punch out of the victory.
The California mentor made the
statement that the victory of
Washington by fifteen lengths
was not as decisive as the margin
of victory would. make it seem.
1.-THE claim was made that the Cali
fornia crew carried dead load OF
one man the greater part OF the
way Also it was claimed that the
California. crew stopped rowing
under orders from Coach Wallis
before the finish of the race:
Washington supporters take de-
cided issue with all these claims
From the victorS supporters comes
the word that Howell at No. >
rowed the entire race, that he was
not a dead load. They say that
Howell did not collapse until the
Washington crew had crossed the
finish line.
The force of Howells oar stick
ing in the water threw him out of
his shell then, say the Washing
tonianS. Seeing the condition OF
Howell, the California coxswa1n
| threw up his hands and the men
stopped rowing.
Howell was picked up by a
Washington launch and taken to
shore The doctors who examined
Howell found no injury and pro-
nounced it complete exhaustion,
the Washington hackers say.
In order to prove that Washing
tons big margin of victory was de-
served, Washington supporters
contend that the clerk of course,
the referee and Judges are UNI
in saying Washington had crossed
the line before California stopped
rowing.
There you have the Washington
side of the much discussed race in
which California was SO decisivei.
beaten
Coach Wallis of California, while
admitting Washington had a good
crew said the decisive defeat of
his varsity was due to the collapse
Of one of his men, and the fact
that he ordered his crew to stop
rowing when half mile from the
finish

Sam Blithe. rehasher of political
history who never in his life made a
specific constructive suggestion, is out
with an article criticizing the Repub-
lican Administration and particularly
condemning bureaucracy. Evidently
Mr.. Blythe, who used to sob every
time Woodrow Wilson looked sad,
does not know that bureaucracy made
its greatest gains in American govern
ment under the recent Democratic re-
gime. We challenge him to designate
specifically which of the Wilson bu-
reaus or commissions he thinks ought
to be abolished. He says 80 per cent
Of them are not worth per cent of
what they cost. Come on now, Sam,
be specific in your condemnation of
