I' aj HUSKY CREW WINS TRIPLE TRIUMPH OVER CALIFORNIA Easy Victory Scored And Records Smashed-Head ed For Olympics and Poughkeepsie. SEATTLE, Wash., April U. (AP) Riding on the tall or a stiff south erly wind, the University of Wash lngton rowing fleet scored a smash Ing, triple triumph over the touted Bear of California for th second successive year here today, and busted every record ever made on. L Washington. The mighty Husklea trounced the Calliurnla varsity by three lengths. th Junlor-varalty by five and a half and the freshmen by five. And the way the smooth-stroking Washington oarsmen left all three Bear crews In their wake made them look like they were rowing straight lor Berlin and the Olympic games. it waa the sixth time in the 33 years of the Pacific coast Intercolle giate regatta that Washington had scored a complete sweep In all throe ipees. The Washington varalty streaked over the gruelling three-mile course In IS minutes, 50.4 seconds compared with the old mark of 18:33.4 bung up by the Huskies In 1934. Csllfornla. trailing 12 seconds be hind the northerners In 10:08, slso was well under the record, giving Coach Ky Ebrlght good reason to believe he may have another na tional championship crew by the time the Poughkeepsie regatta rolla around In June. Washington won the Junlsr-varslty three-mile event In 16:14.3. to cut a big slice off the former mark of 17:14.6 established by California In 1032. The Bears trailed along In 10:35.1. In the two-mile skirmish, the Husky frosh knocked down the early choppy waves In the unbelievable time of 10:34.8. This was snnounced as official but four watches on the press boat caught the Washington boys around 10:40. California time was announced a 10:31.4. The old record made by the Hua klea In 1034 waa 11:344. And then compare these figures with the records established years ago over the Leschl-to-Madrona course and you'll havs an Idea how faat the powerful crew were sailing today. Th old varsity figure was 19:68, made in 1932; Junlor-varslty 16:36.2 In 1036, and the freshman 10.44.4 In 1036.

Belcastro released the belt to Promoter Mack Lillard on Friday and wilt defend It against the winner of tomorrow's bout on the following Monday, Both of tb combatants tomorrow will have a Medford following. Each holda a win over the champion. Whether Peck, whose rugged phy sique has weathered the storms of many versatile attack, will be able to turn bade the Prince's two great holda the camel look and the dragon scissors seems to depend strongly on how soon he geia his skull cracking head lock and how tenaciously he hangs onto It. In six weeks of grappling here. MlhalaXla has won every- match, de pending not alone on those two grips, but using them u the coup de grace In each Instance. All of Peck's wins, similarly, have come through the use of the head lock. The bout has ere- i a tod much Interest. The middle event bring together two All -American football players for the first time In a Medford ring when Oeorge "Wildcat" Wilson, ex Washington flash, tangles with Dan ny Savlch of Utah, in an Australian ayetm match. More flying tackles are expected In this event than are usually seen In an Army -Not re Dame football game. Wilson's slashing aon- nenberga are considered more dang erous than Savlch 'a thrusts, but the scrappy Rocky Mountain conference guard is considered faster, and has a command of more fancy grips.' Bob Kenaaton, erstwhile "mad mar ine" of Oold Hill whose erratic squab bling with the referee, flights out side the ropes to tie h)s shoes when they needed no tieing, and boister ous delight In drumming on an op ponents paunch earned him the hat red of most local fans, returns to mix with Frank Taylor, towering Ohio State athlete. In the opener. While on a tour of southern Cali fornia, Ken as ton picked up a wealth of new wrestling skill. In hia former matches here he depended almost en tirely on his "Oold Hill crab" hold. a reverse kneellng-headlock.. He has evolved several Improvements on that hold and now also employs a flying drop kick and several tricky leg holds. The match may be the last here for Kenaaton before he starts east on a wrestling tour, although Pro moter Mack Lillard is making an at tempt to secure him for several ap pearances.

Plans are going ahead for the card, which will feature many of the outstanding boxers In the dis trict. Lieut. Henry F.

OLD TIMERS T MEETS HIGH THIS AFTERNOON A large crowd of Medford baseball fans are expected at the Senior high school field on South Holly at 3 o'clock this afternoon for the first game of the season when a group of old timers cross bats with the high school nine. The game Is expected to be fast one, with a rapidly Improving school team anxious to test their skill against the mighty arm of John Mil Jus, former big league star, who will twirl for the men. The game, rather than a competitive enter prise. Is designed to test the skill of the high school fars and to pro mote Interest In the formation of baseball school for Medford boys. The movement has been sponsored by a group of Medford merchants headed by J. Verne Shangle, local photographer. Mlljus himself, with 31 years In the major leagues behind him, would be the mentor of the propos ed school, and besides teaching the young men the fundamentals of the game, would promote baseball com petition with similar teams In other southern Oregon cities. One of the aims of the group would be to im prove the local field, possibly to turf it at a future date, and to Im port travelling coast league teams to play here, Shangle said. Admission to today's game will be used In getting the school under way. An admission price of 35 cents has been decided upon, with chil dren under 10 admitted free. .
