WADSLEY IS TO
TRAIN STANFORD
CARDINALS. WANT SERVICES OF
HIGHLANDER
May Succeed "Dad" MouIton as Dl-
rector of Athletes at Northern
UniVersity-WiIl Be Starter
for tanford-Berkeley Meet
BY Edward Moriarty

Y lie all star track team of Southern
California arrived yesterday from
their visit in the north, during which
they defeated the Stanford university
aggregation and contested strongly
with Berkeley.
Various favorable Impressions did
the southerners leave with their north
ern opponents and one of them may
result i'll IL loss to Southern California
athletes. If the present plans Of
Cardinal authorities materialize, Wads-
ley OF Occidental, who trained the
champion Highlanders during their
preparations for the past cinder sea-
son, will eventually become the trainer
of the Stanford athletic teams.
SO impressed were the Cardinal men
With Wadsley's starting at the Stan
Berkeley freshmen meet, which
occurred after the All Southern Stan
ford meet, and prior TO the Ali South
ern-Berkeley contest, that a propo-
sition was made guaranteeing him
$1,000 as assistant to Moutton during
next season.
To Succeed Mouton
The offer practically PLACES Wadsley
in line for trainer of IL 2 Stanford
teams as it is known that H)ad" Moul-
ton will not be retained much longer
Moulton is held in high esteem by the
Cardinal students but is nearing an
age which will necessitate his with
drawal from active participation.
Wadsley will go north to start the
events of the dual meet between Stan
ford and Berkeley, which occurs April
Il, and it is understood that a strong
effort will be made by the Cardinals
to secure his signature on a contract.
1t is improbable that II better man
for the position could be selected as
Wadsley, in addition to being one of
the greatest athletes that ever donned
a spike, possesses the intuition of Sc
lectng the right man for the right
place. His methods, though largely
those of the British school, combine
the dash which distinguishes the typ
ical American trainer.
The English are noted for the stam-
ina which distinguishes their students,
while the American type is marked by
q dash that outclasses the foreigner.
A possible combination of the two
would appear capable of producing an
ideal track man and WadSley with his
experience on both British and Amer
Jean cinder paths should possess the
requirements necessary for the best
possible development of college or
university athlete. In the event of his
departure, Southern California track
men will suffer a serious loss.
Records Corrected
Tt appears that the records sent south
relative to the meet of the all star
team with Berkeley We're incorrect in
one particular. Pomona was given
credit for rolling up the largest total.
The corrected average is:
Occidental. 26; Pomona, % and u. S.
c. 2. Prior to the relay race the score
stood Occidental %, Pomona % and
u :. c. ..
The men finished in the following
order:
Hodge, Occidental first; Spurgeon,
Pomona, second; Hagerman, Occidental,
third; Brown, Pomona, fourth; Bird,
Occidental, fifth. AS each place count
ed for one point Occidental added three
to her former score, completing a rec
ord of &c.
BHagerman, the Highland athlete who
Was beaten out in the high hurdles
aand broad jump at the Berkeley meet,
will accompany Wadsley north and en-
deavor to regain his laufels in the
coast championship games that are to
be held on Berkeley oval April 2S.
The Occidental athlete is confident
that he will be able to defeat all
comers in the coast series, and judging
from his past performances he will do
so. He entered the Berkeley games
with q badly sprained ankle and was
unable to display his usual form.
The southern boys report that they
We're the guests of northern princes
and express more than ordinary ap-
probation of the treatment accorded
TEN by the Stanford and Berkeley
continS0n 0nts.
