    content.lib.washington.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=... could be the same crew. If so, the men would be: "U of W Crew 1914. Back row, 2d from left - Rusty Callow. 1914. Bow - Brokaw; 2 - Kumm, 3 - Rose, 4 - Shumacher, 5 - Walski, 6 - Catlin, 7 - Callow, Stroke - Frankland, Cox - Dunbar."

    More pictures of the 1914 Huskies at www.huskycrew.com/1910.htm which has sections by year for a decade.

    Thanks so much swanq for finding such great images of the Univ. of Wash. crew team in 1914. What's throwing me however, is the location of this shot. 2FunAdGuyz is selling a poster showing a crew team lifting their shell out of or into the water at what appears to be the same location as this Bain image. www.the2funadguyz.com/unwi19rocrpo.html They label the team, perhaps incorrectly, Univ. of Wisconsin varsity rowing team, on the Hudson River near Poughkeepsie. Not to say that the team shown isn't the 1914 Washington Huskies, but all I can nail down for sure is the bridge.

    I recognize the bridge as the Poughkeepsie Bridge. I drove past it last weekend on my way back from Rhinebeck, New York. The Poughkeepsie Bridge (sometimes known as the Poughkeepsie Railroad Bridge, the Poughkeepsie-Highland Railroad Bridge, the High Bridge, or, since October 3, 2009, the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park) is a steel cantilever bridge spanning the Hudson River between Poughkeepsie, New York on the east bank and Highland, New York on the west bank. Built as a double track railroad bridge, it was completed on January 1, 1889, and went out of service on May 8, 1974. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poughkeepsie_Bridge
