TWO NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS FOUR
y ty y y y,
COAST CROWNS, ONE NORTHWEST TITLE,
* # V # #
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Seattle, Wn., Jan. 14—Two national
championships, four Pacific coast crowns, and one northwest conference ti
tle—roughly describes the achievements of the University of Washington
athletic teams for the year of 1924.
In every sport, with the possible exception of this year’s football season,
the men of Washington have gone through the season’s of ’24 in excellent
styles. .
Rusty Callow’s national championship crew is of course the most fa
mous sport production of the State university of the past year. Following
the California-Washington race, if ■
such it could be called, the blonde
mentor took his varsity and the sec- j
ond stringers,, the junior varsity, to <
Poughkeepsie The frosh-varsity shell
won the coach championship from the ,
Bear cubs. ^
Post mortems and songs of victory
of the results of this* historic Pough
keepsie race have blended together
and died out and at this juncture it
is sufficient to say that the ’24 na
tional race was a victory for the
West; Washington first, Wisconsin ,
second. The Junior varsity Huskies 1
were beaten in the second race, but i
walked away with second place.
Wallace Scott’s sensational work at
Philadelphia last July, where the tan
ned Tacoman won the national inter
collegiate singles for Washington, re
sulted in the second national title for
the Huskies. Scott is probably the
greatest tennis player ever to wear
the Purple and Gold.
The Huskey tennis team also man- j
aged to win the Northwest champion- j
ship and Scott and Hesketh took the
I honors in the Pacific coast collegiate
| meet.
Basketball went well with Wash
j ington until the Purple Quintet stack- ]
i ed up against the Golden Bears for |
j the coast championship. Edmond-1
| son’s men won the northwest cham
| pionship against extremely stiff com-1
petition in several cases, and one of
his men, Dick Wells, was named all
coast guard.
The Huskies, again under Edmond
j son, fared well in track, winning ev-,
ery dual meet, but losing by a single,;
. point in the Northwest meet, to the
U. of Oregon. The Ducks won by vir
ture of their many second place men.
Under Coach Tubby Graves, the
Husky nine faced a season without
veterans ,and came within an ace of
getting the northwest championship at
that. Following O. A. C.’s blowup.

Washington State managed to come
jack strong at the conclusion of the
season and win by half a game.
The Husky golf team won the Pa
cific coast intercollegiate title again
:his year, although several of the
learns failed to enter. However, the
Huskies were heavy favorites.
In rifle shooting the Washington
squad took ninth place in the national
meet and made impressive scores in
several of the dual meets. The R. O.
r. C. team took thrid place in the
sorp area.
The Husky boxers were denied in
tercollegiate competition, but man
aged to arrange a bout with the U. of
B. C., which they won with little dif
ficulty. The B. C. men also were de
feated by the Washington ice hockey
team.
O. A. C. proved again to be the
Huskies’ Jonah in wrestling. Wash
ington beat Wash. S. C. and Idaho
and lost to the Ags. Fred Griffin
entered the P. N. A. tryout, but was
defeated by Robin Reed. Washing
ton also won second place in cross
country running this fall.
This season has seen the greatest
gridiron disappointment in the re
cent history of the school. With
what was considered the champion
ship team by several different au
thorities, the men of Bagshaw played
championship ball in all but two
games, one of which they inadvert
ently lost and the championship and
enthusiasm of northwest fans. The
remarkable rise of George Wilson,
Husky back, and the individual work
of Tesreau, Seivers, DuBois, Patton,
Walters, Bellman and Guttormsen, af
ford the Husky fan cause for pride,
even if they were not made into
the best team.

WEALTHY, SOUTHERN BEAUTY
GETS THRILL
The wealthiest, most lovely and
most blue-blooded servant that ever
carried a can of hot water upstairs in
an English household: Miss Martha
Prewitt, daughter of David Prewitt,
of Lexington, Ky., one of the wealthi
est landholders in the State. In search
of a thrill and also anxious to find
out why and how English households
ran so smoothly, Miss Prewitt became
an “h’extra girl” in the tow'n house
of Mr. and Mrs. Reginald Price, of
London. And now, home again, the
former University of London student
is regaling her friends with tales of
Mrs. Larkin, the cook; Mr. Jones,
“the h’odd man"; “HTsobelle,” the
’ead ’ousemaid, and her other back
stairs pals. Lots of fun and lots of
light on the servant problem and so
ciology, she says.
