High School Boys, With Principal
Crane in Charge Of Team, Lett
for Missoula This Morning.
WILL MAKE A GOOD SHOWING
Butte Sends Nineteen Men to the In
terschoIastie Meet-An interest
ing Comparison.

bows took the tram THIS morning, dC-
companied by Principal Crane, and
will return home next Monday night.
The interscholastic meet at Missoula
occurs Wednesday, Thursday and FRI
day. and the nine young men from
Lewistown will have very busy time
of it during those three days. 1t is
undeniable that the team sent this
year is much stronger than that of a
year ago, but some of the other coun-
ties will be represented by much larg-
err teams, so that the work will be
distributed among more men. Last
year, for instance, Belden, the Fergus
star, was pretty well worn out in
running qualifying heats for the num-
erous spirits in which he was enter
ed, and in one of the finals, he was
hardly in shape to do full justice to
himself.
Butte's Big Team.
Butte will send team of 10 men to
Missoula, and six others will go along,
making a party of 25. Anaconda will
also send big team, and Helena is
working hard to make a showing this
season, while Great Falls promises to
be in the running all the way. Butte
is loked upon already as sure win
ner, and Horn, the Anaconda star is
the man relied upon to capture the
sprints. He is one Of the best all
round men in the state, but was de-
feated last year by Belden. Horn
claims to be in better form than he
was year ago, but SO is Belden, and
the struggle between these two fast
ones will probably be the real feature
of the meet.
Held Joint Meet.
Butte and Anaconda held a joint
are very interesting as compared with
those scored by the Fergus athletes
at their home meet on May S.
The scores recorded at each meet
are given below, and while they dc
not, of course, furnish an absolute
line on the men, as the conditions
here were very unfavorable for the
best work, they are still worth some
