fair test, inasmuch as O'Brien wore in
door spikes while Bockman (second) did
not. But O'Brien's performance certain
ly marks him as man of great hurdllng
ability and in the same class with Book
man. Minnesota is to be congratulated
on having two such men, for with O'Brien
and Bockman on the team, both high and
low hurdles will be we'll taken care Of.
In the sprints Boeckmann (second) OF st.
Paul, who last year won the 220 dash at
the Iowa meet, should be a much more
valuable man than heretofore. Boeck-
mann (second) showed marked develop
ment and Improvement over last year
and his race last Saturday, in which he
won first place in the fifty yard dash, af-
ter tieing with Bockman (second) was GER
tainly most creditable. -
Brigham, too, is a man with exceptional
athletic ability and with steady, faith
full work should come to the front by
another year as one of Minnesota's best
men, both in the sprints and in the high
and broad jumps Crossette, Varco and
Green are also doing good work in the
short distances, in the middle and long
distances the material is abundant. In
the quarter mile run Boeckmann, Tibblt,
Hoyt, Redwood, Green, McLennen, Cros-
settle and Murphy are available material.
-. Harris Missed. .s. ..u
III the Hall mllS Iuu lu6 university Will
sorely miss Harris, who made such phe-
nomenally fast time last year. Rieberth,
however, is a good man, and promising
men are Treadwell, Gallagher and Pierce,
former Duluth high school boy, and
very likely Redmond. McLenner, King
and Ostvig should also do especially well
in this event. Bass also should make a
valuable man in the middle distances.
In the mile run Caine, Colburn, Freedman,
Kidder, Treadwell, Davis and Rieberth
are at the present time the most prom
inent candidates.
In the Vault.
In the pole vault Pierce, Jensen, Robin
son and Holden are at present doing the
best work. Pierce should reach 10 feet
inches by the end of the season, while
one or two others of this squad should
certainly clear 10 feet before June.
In the high jump MCPHERSON, who on
Saturday broke the university indoor rec
ord with jump of 5 feet inches, is at
present in the lead. Brigham, however,
is a man of promise, and with steady,
conscientious work, should give McPher-
son hard push for first place.
Bockman, Collins, Chemmuch, Tuck,
Crosseth, Mitchell and Robinson are also
all jumping 5 feet 1 inch or over, and
should improve their work considerably.
In the field events La Fans is especially
strong with the hammer, shot and discus;
Mitchell of the Medical school is ex-
pected to do well with the hammer;
Knowlton is a coming man with the dis
Gus and shot, and Beckmann is doing
we'll with the shot.
In the broad Jump O'Brien, Harsh and
Brigham are at present the most promis-
ing candidates, though nothing definite
can be told about this event for some time
to come.

possible
