Crew for Well-Rounded Coeds
SEATTLE, April 21—(AP)—The University of Washington, the
“Notre Dame” of intercollegiate rowing, is considering letting the
girls into the act.
Rowing has been strictly a man’s sport at the school since 1917.
But an editorial in the University daily the other day fanned the
femmes into flames of enthusiasm.
"Crew might teach the girls to submerge a sometimes irritating
individualism into the ‘one for all and all for one’ tradition common
to rowing,” the paper stated.
A poll of students brought such comments as “it would be good
for the girls and good for the student body,” “it would undoubtedly
raise the morale of the varsity crew,” “terrific.”
Joanne Tartre, Associated Women Students’ president, said:
“It would be another extracurricular activity to make the girls
well-rounded.”
“Amen,” murmured a kibitzing male student.
Coach A1 Ulbrickson said girls’ rowing wouldn’t interfere with the
“men only” occupants of the crewhouse.
The “she-shells” would be manned” by girls only. Any coeduca
tional activity would continue to be confined to the campus • canoes.
The net losses provision in the
income tax must be a terrific
temptation to some fishermen.
Some people call it hard times
because they can’t borrow the
price of a new auto.
