BY JAMES GRANT The stage has been eet for Coach Conibear and his Wash- ington oaramen to go South and defeat California and Stan- ford in the much-talked.of re gatta on the Oakland estuary April 14. The Washington men, | 22 strong, including the coach, | will leave Seattle for the South on the S, 8 Governor Friday morning. A large force of Varsity rooters will be on hand to bid their favorites good-bye and good luck, The local tnstitution, on account of Its previous crews and training facilities, is already being balled as the Coast champions, At a glance this might seem true, but after the facts have been studied it will be jseen that « Washington fresb men and Varsity crews are at a disadvantage. For the past three weks the weather has |that the oaramen have not bean ble to get a real workout. The Varsity equad {s not in as good condition as it was three weeks ago. As for the freshmen, Coach Con! |bear has not been a to send |them over the two miles, the dis tance which they are going to row }in the South. They have made the |three miles in 16:07, or 15 seconds | slower than the Varsity’s best time.

In former years some of the oarsmen have been able to get clip- |pings from the Southern newspi |pers, telling how the Southerners |were coming along. This year no {nformation of any kind has reach led the veteran coach, and he is un able to tell what kind of men he {s going against. Nothing about the Southern crews has been printed in the different college papers for the past two weeks. Whether this fs to hinder the local men in their |knowledge of their coming oppo |nents will remain a mystery unti! the race comes off. Local Men Confident | The U. of W. men feel sure th jthey will be returned the victors | They can see no reason why Cali |fornia and Stanford should cross jthe line ahead of them. Back lof the crews’ confidence stands one man who {s directly responsible for the success of all rowing at Wash ington. This person is none other lthan Coach Hiram Conibear, In years gone by the crews have not |stood behind the veteran coach as they should. Some of the former |men took ft tnto their heads that they knew more about rowing and coaching than the coach himself, with the result that when they leame to a race they fell flat and finished in the rear. This year, however, everyone he been such} Nothing is known of the South. | and something transpired.

They have trained faithfully, whi {s 9 lot more than past eights have Jone, All of the men turning out! for the different crews have dug into thelr pockets to give money t the freshmen fund, so that the “frosh” eight would be able to go to Oakland. It is this kind of spirit that wins any event, and when the 22 men leave Friday morning for the regatta, the two most consclen thous eights that have ever been tutored by Coach Conlbear will have embarked on their journey. Attorney Wilmon Tucker object- ed to the mention of Wappenatetn. and Judge Neterer instructed the Jury to disregard the remark. “It's # singular fact,” continued Allen, “that a month ago Gill |couldn’t remember whether or not | Helsell was in the room, but re | members the details now. i ha re that he 4{dn't! | Strang that Becking leave the room, Ttell y could remember at this late a da whether or not he left the room, | if the meeting was Just for ordin- ary matters, If you would ask me about @ conference two or threo| months back, I couldn't remember | whether or not I left the room.” | Bribe Quarrel Significant Another significant fact, Allen pointed out, was that Logan sent a telegram to the Jesse Moore Hunt Co, about that time, announcing | “Everything O.
