WASHINGTON U
CREWS WINNER
IN WISCONSIN
Varsity and Junior Varsity
Defeats University of
Wisconsin Crews.

MADISON, Wis, June IS
Lifting their shell into a sprint
in the last 500 yards the Uni
vefsity of Washington varsity
crew defeated the University of
Wisconsin by five lengths over
the two mile course on Lake
Mindota, today.
This is a decisive victory due
to the fact that the race was
only over two mile course while
the Poughkeepsie Regatta will be
four miles.
Last year Wisconsin came in
third when Washington won at
the regatta at Poughkeepsie.
The Huskies' junior varsity
won from the Badgers freshman
crew by a length and a half over
the two mile course. The two
es~s were neck and neck over
most of the course but last
minute sprint by the Westerners
showed their superiority.
The Washington crews are on
their wey to Poughkeepsie where
they will defend their Intercol
legiate Championship of last year
against the Navy. California,
Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell
and Syracuse.
The Huskies won first place in
1928, 1924 and 1926 and were
second to the Navy in 1925 only
to lose the race by four seconds.
