Huskies Coaching Six
OF Eight Crews in
Race al Seattle
BY the Associated Pre-.

SEATTLE, june 2O.-Its going to
be "old home week" on Lake WASH
ington Saturday for most of the
coaches whose crews are entered in
the Vests biggest padding event
since the Indians deemphasized the
sport.
Six of the eight crews assembling
for the international regatta are
coached by men who once pulled
oars for Washington or went along
for the ride to handle the tiller
ropes-in shells that glided to cham
pionships on the West Coast, at
Poughkeepsie and at the Berlin
Olympics. Only Wisconsin's favored
eight and the University of British
Columbia arc tutored by non-Wash-
ington coaches.
The crews with ex-Washington
crewmen are: Rutgers, Charles Logg,
who rowed for the ;huskies in 1919
81; California. KY Ebright, cox
swain 1851; Harvard, Tom Bolles,
1924-26; Cornell, Harrison Sanford,
1924-26; Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology, Jim McMillin, 1935-37;
Washington, AL Ulbrickson, 1924-26.
In time trials yesterday, both at
low stroke, Harvard turned in
performance between 6:25 and 6::35
unofficially, and M. I. T. had $50
test. Washington's 6:15 of the pre-
cious day stands as the best per-
formance over the course, but the
experts don't expect that pace to be
good enough to win on race day.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 20 R.-
Prospects were good today that new
champions will be crowned in at
least five events of the 25th re-
newal of the NCAA track and field
meet Friday and Saturday, with a
strong possibility that new records
will be set in three events.
Performances of athletes entered
In the NCAA SO far this spring indi-
cate new champions are on the
way in the 2-mile run, the low and
high hurdles, the high Jump and
the pole vault, with the new record
possibilities coming in the 220 and
440 yard dashes and the mile.
Herb McKenley, Jamaican star
from Illinois, is expected to dupli-
cate his world record time of 0:46.2
set in the $40 of the Big Ten meet
at Champaign three weeks ago.
He also has run the 220-yard dash
in 0:20.6, just two-tenths Of a Sec
ond slower than NCAA mark set by
Ralph Metcalfe of Marquette 13
years ago, and is expected to better
that time.
Labeach Is Big Threat.
Pressing him in the 220 will be
Wisconsin's Lloyd Labeach who
consistently runs the distance in
better than 81 seconds.
The third event in which new
mark is anticipated is the mile run.
If Roland Sink of Southern Cali
fornia lives up to predictions, he will
come close to or better the 4:08.3
set by Louis zamperi1i of Southern
California in 1888.

Day said, "the wild ducks and geese
of this country are going to face
the greatest army of hunters in all
history" Day said. "A declining
period in waterfowl is all too plain.
Increased hunting pressure is a fact
and not fiction. 1t is going to take
the best kind of management pos

the breeding. stocks Of waterfowl.
THE only quick means of adjust
ing hunting pressure is provided
through the annual migratory hunt

30s, when the waterfowl population
was down to 27,000,000 on its way
out, the regulations rigidly enforced
by State and Federal wardens
saved the day."
