Judging by the amount OF
work Coach Charlie Butt has
planned for Washington Lee
High Schools varsity eight
cared crew before next months
Henley regatta, the Generals
might just as well row to Eng
land and save that air fare
they're trying to raise.
Coach Butt is certain WI
has a chance to win the
Thames Challenge Cup event
of the Henley, July Al on the
Thames River near London.
Two weeks ago WI won the
National Schoolboy title for
the sixth straight year and the
10th time since 1919.
The Generals varsity eight
has been on the Potomac at
6 O'Clock every morning recent
ly. The boys row six miles be-
fore leaving for school. When
school is out, Butt plans to go
to two a = day sessions and
lenghthen the mileage for each
workout.
WI now has about $500
toward its goal of $4,000 to
finance the trip to Henley.
Coach Butt hopes to raise the
money by June 18 and then
leave for Henley on the 26th.
I'D like more time to work

Butt explains. THE other two
times we competed we didn't
have enough practice time on
the Thames"
Washington Lee, the only
public schoolboy crew ever to
enter the Henley, made it to
the second round in 1858 be-
fore losing to the H arvar d
lightweights. In 1860 the Gen.
erals were defeated by the Kent
School.
wills American competition
in the Henley consists Of the
NIT lightweights, Phillip S
Academy and the Detroit Boat
Club. That's mighty fast COM
pany for a high school crew,
Butt admits, but he thinks the
Generals can handle all three.
Butt rates the 1862 crew as
the biggest and strongest he's
ever had at the Arlington
school. He doesn't think the
boys have reached their full
potential as yet.

high for the institution, with a
total of 432 youths in attend
arce. In addition, there are
three in the radio school, and a
full load of 20 in the cosmotolo-
gy department.
Mrs. F. B. Branch, Registrar,
says that there has been a high
ef total number of students at
Holmes, but this total included
the engine mechanics, electri-
city and other technical depart
ments. Only those students pur-
suing fulltime academic studies
are included in this years rec
ord count.
The record attendance this
year is probably due to the fact
that there was a tremendous
birth increase during the years
of World War II. These war
babies, as they have been
called. are now reaching college
age, and institutions of higher
learning across the nation are
noticing a tremendous upswing
n enrolment as a result.
