Coach “Rusty” Callow de- clared so yesterday. The purpose of sending two crews East would be to have one defend Washington's national rowing champion- ship at Poughkeepsie on June 17 and the other to com- pete in the Olympic tryouts on the Schuylkill river at Philadelphia June 13 and 14. The matter is now up to the Northwest people and the University of Washington officials. The officials will probably consent. Upon the shoulders of the Northwest people would rest the problem of raising the funds to send the crews East. If they feel that they would like to reap the beneficial rewards of Washington’s crew prowess again, little or no difficulty will be found in get- ting the money necess Point Makers iF rosh Five in Basketball || Wins Game | Over Hall’s HE University of Washigton Frosh and the Yellow Cab Co. jfives scored yictories in the City Basketball league games played last night at the University gym.
