ing given prominence in the sports
at the Exposition last week it is
matter of great interest to peo.
pie of this town. Our bows en-
tered the various contests under
Multnonah's colors. The resul,
of Fridays contests were verv
satisfactory from our point OF
view. In the 44o-dash Williams
was first with Greenhaw a close
second. Both are OAC sprinters.
Smithson was not in good condi
ton and Williams took the 1oo-
yard dash. The following re-
ports have been given out.
Multnomah leads in the P. N.
A. championship games, the first
seven events of which took place
on the Exposition stadium yes
terday afternoon. Athletes from
all parts of the Northwest COM
peted for points, and al the close
of the day the representatives of
the Multnomah Club had piled up
80 tallies agains 20 for Seattle
and I for the Brockton Point
Athletic Club.
Interesting features of yester
days meet was the broad Jump
and the 5o-pound weight. The
latter event was not included in
collegiate meets, and hence has
not been seen on local fields for
some time. Mcdonald of Seattle
broke the Northwest record bv
tossing the weight out 27 feet
loH inches.
The 44o-yard dash was run in
the remarkably quick time of
so 3-5, Williams and Greenhaw
making very close finish at the
taps. The hundred was not run
as fast as expected, due to the
fact that Smithson, who makes
the distance in 10 fiat, had a
sprained tendon, and could not
do himself justice. His running
mate Williams took first at 10 2-s.
The weather was ideal, and the
track in good condition. The
remaining eight events will be
pulled off this afternoon on the
stadium, commencing at 3o'clock.
