Governor Browning, elected last autumn with the support of Boss Edward Hull Crump of Memphis (TIME, Aug. 17), had had his own eye on Senator Bachman's seat, which was occupied by Cordell Hull until he moved into the Cabinet. Gordon Browning, in fact, lost the seat to Nathan Bachman in the primaries of 1934.

...which maintain crews, 18 have Washington-trained oarsmen on their coaching staffs, eight have Washington-trained head coaches. Last week, the newest Washington-trained head coach made his debut as such in the first important event of the eastern rowing season.

The event was the one and three quarter mile varsity race in the Compton Cup Regatta, on Princeton's Lake Carnegie...
