 gram Announced

DETROIT, Sept. 15-No univer- sity in America received more pub licity than was accorded the Uni- versity of Washington in the recent Olympic Games in Berlin. Tae greater part of the interest was of course centered upon the phenom- iaal showing of the Husky eight bringing to this country the eight cared title and the only major row. ing win. The press of the world hailed Al Ulbrickson's crew the greatest of all-time.
 Acclaimed by Coach Ulbrickson himself as Washington s, finest eight ip history the names of those boys Who wore the purple and gold colors al Grunau-Bob Moch, Don Hume, Joe Rantz, George Hunt, James McMillan. James White, Gordon Adam, Charles Day and Roger Nor lis-will be carved in the hall of fame at Washington. And every one of these boys, except Coxswain Mech, will be back again. next year to represent the Huskies. Another great rowing season looms large!
 Medica in HonorS
 Jack Medica, Washington's swim ming ace, came in for his share of honsTS also He broke the record in the 400-meter free style to bring first place to the University and to America and he garnered enough points .la ether competition to bring hcnors to this country.
 Washington also boasted of the only University man to make the Olympic basketball team Ralp1! B shop. The Tfuskies were the only collegiate team to survive the trials for the finals at New York City and Bishop was chosen to make the Berlin trip, having the distinction iof being the only University man OF sthe winning Olympic hoop team.
 On Track, Too

 What other University can boast of this kind of athletic supremacy?
 The year 1886 is not going to be a usual one at Washington from an athletic standpoint. Intersectional lcontests and long trips will charac- 'terize this season as the beginning lof @ new era in sports for the Illus lilies.
 Play Minnesota
 The Minnesota game, which will 'open the grid season on September s26 is the first great intersectional contest held in the. Northwest in many years. And the program is mot a flash in the pan for already it is announced that another Big Ten team, Iowa, will open the l931 season at Seattle.

 Dean In Basketball
 2 As forerunner to the basket ' ball season, the University of Mich- igan comes to Seattle in December lThe event is already causing con- siderable comment, when it is ta- ken into consideration that a fine basketball team is on the horizon for the Huskies. Coach Hec Ed mundson will lose only Bishop ana { McKinstry from his great 1886 team and a fine bunch of Sophomores fare ready for first-team positions. l And there will be undoubtedly the trek across the continent for the Husky crew men. With only Cox swains Moch missing from the worlds champion eight, the Uni versity of Washington will s,1raIv be favorite at Poughkeepsie in 1887. The Freshman, Junior Var sity and Varsity crews of 1886, all winners of the national champion ship on the Hudson. have set the pace for the oarsmen of next sea- son.
 Of course there will be the usu- al trips for the other t'hletic squads. "A travelling we will go1 seems to be the slogan for the Hus-
