|. D. S. j. WILL MEET PREPS
Coach Milne, However, Bars All
Regular U. Men on
Team.

Coach Rass Milne of the l. D. S. uni
versity yesterday accepted the challenge
for dual track and field meet with the
preparatory students Of the university
The condition upon which the challenge
was accepted was that all regular ~
men on the prep team be barred from
the contest. This provision weakens the
prep" team materially, as it excludes
Melvin SWapp and George Huntsmen, two
men who are on the regular varsity
team, and who could most probably win
twenty points for their team if they were
allowed to compete. However, Coach Mad
dock thinks that the preparatory boys
have a good chance TO turn the trick.
They still have in their ranks Morgan
Adams and Neil Judd. two of the regular
university team.
The rules to govern the contest are
those decided upon for the Rocky noun
tain conference meet to be held in BouI-
der May 10. This includes the two-mile
run and the discus throw In addition to
the regular events of the state meets.
Coach Milne has had his men in train

park during the last week
