PAGE 8 gyn are what count in any branch of athletics and the Wash- ington coaching system is getting results, Not only are these results evident in the scores of the games played and the races run, but the staff of coaches now at Washington are regu- lar fellows, coaches who are turning out fine men as well as efficient athletes. When the University of Washington closed its football season here last week the Huskies had come into their own again on the gridiron. For the first time in years the Purple and Gold were colors to be reckoned with on the football field. Under Coaches Bagshaw and Graves the Huskies not only won six games out of eight played, but they played hard and cleanly. made him. AGSHAW doesn’t lay any claims to being a miracle man.

Golvin, who played first base for the St. Paul team in the American association last summer, is said to be one sweet pastimer, | particularly as a fielder. | Golvin is of big league timber, according to Chicago scribes who saw him work some last spring. There is no doubt about his fielding ability, altho some of the writers seemed to doubt his ability to hit big league pitching. The St. Paul team, which won the American association pennant in a walk this summer, let up an awful squawk when Golvin was recalled by the Cubs, but as William Wrigley owns most of the stock in the Cubs and Angels, there wasn’t anything that St. Paul could do but squawk. The addition of Golvin to the Angels means the passing of Art Griggs as a regular first sacker in Los Angeles.

The boys went thru their regular stunts for 30 minutes and then the gang peppered Hap. Holmes in the goal with hard shots, putting the rubber in from every angle while right on top of the veteran goalie. The regulars were given orders to put the old zip on the disc to give Holmes a good workout prior to the Wednesday game because Dye and Cameron, crack members of the champions, pack the hardest shots in the game. Every member on the squad reported in good condition yesterday, with the exception of Bernie Morris, who is recovering from ptomaine poisoning.
