High School Athletic
Association Gives
Good Events.
Calumet Boy Does Good Work
Day-Some OF the Events Were
HoUy Contested.

The field day sports at the Athletic
park last Saturday afternoon uoder the
auspices OF the Calumet high school were
huge success in every way. In fact,
the different sports were OF more interest
than any that have taken place in the
Athletic park for long time Nearly
all the events were confined to high school
students of the county and the different
schools sent teams. The Calumet team
was victorious in the number OF poiats
scored, they getting 81 TO 80 for Han
cock, 9 for Houghton and Ii for Lake
Linden.
The most remarkable work OF the day
was that OF Light, of the Calumet team,
who, beside taking part in several OF the
field events, won every bicycle race and
in doing so broke three track records.
The .time he made in the one-mile
fifth and quarter-mile events we're the
best ever made in races in the Athletic
park, Boone being the only rider that
beat his time and that only in the quar-
ter. This is certainly good riding and
the fact that it was done by a high school
student makes it all the more credtable.
Lyon showed up well in tie long runs,
winning three events, and Kohlhaas also
did good work, but was not up to his
usual form. Goodsole made a good
number OF points for the local team.
The Houghton boys showed up well in
such events asIthey were entered for.
Croze surprised everyone by winning the
50-yard and 100 yard races and showed
remarkable speed. lie is little slow in
starting, but with practice will make a
very speedy runner. Haas made good
run in the 220-yard dash which he won
easily,
Sheehan did the best work for Hancock,
although Lynch was not far behind, No
one ran against Weiier in the hurdle race
The Lake Linden boys did not decide
to enter until the last minute. but the
boys made fine showing. They were
all young boys. Coggin at pole vault
won easily and made a good record
while Brown showed up well in the high
Jump. Pierce on a bicycle was not slow,
but lacked training on the track.
The sports all the way through were
very interesting and everyone was more
than pleased. The contestants we're all
satisfied and there was no kicking.
thanks 10 the able management OF Field
Manager Gregg. The medals which we're
awarded were very beautiful The high
school boys have established reputa-
ton in the athletic fell and are more
than pleased with the success of their
first athletic meet
