...taking Richard Pocock with him. He was succeeded at Washington by Russell ("Rusty") Callow, who brought the West Coast its first Poughkeepsie Regatta winner in 1923, went to the University of Pennsylvania in 1927. Currently, Washington crews are coached by Al Ulbrickson, whose major rival is Ky Ebright, Washington coxswain in 1916-17, now head coach at California. Between them, Washington and California have won the Poughkeepsie Regatta, in which Yale, Harvard and Princeton are the only major crews that do not compete, eight times in the last 13 races. California crews won the Olympic championship...
...four miles down the Hudson, with five boats from the East to turn back the two from the West which had won six times in the last twelve years. Again the favorite was California, trained to the minute, rowing the odd, short, leg & arm stroke with which Coach Ky Ebright stampeded college rowing in 1932.

Dressed in blue shirts, pulling with the same kind of quick, hard-catching stroke that coach Ky Ebright teaches his Californians, the Italians made their bow move out ahead. With 100 metres to go, it was 3 ft. in front of California. Coxswain Norrie Graham of California backed his stroke up to 44. The 3 ft. grew slowly narrower. Twenty-five yards from the finish...
