GIRLS TRACK MEET GREAT
Occidental Herones Perform Impossi.
BILE Feats in Athletics Which Earn
Sympathy and Admiration

The track meet between the upper
and lower class girls of Occidental
which was held yesterday afternoon
might we'll have been called a bowling
success if it is to be judged by the
sounds which came from the field dur
ing the progress of the contest.
Continual hurrahing and cheering
evidenced that the spectators on the
bleachers We're enjoying themselves to
the utmost and impressed the boys out
side the fence with the sad fact that
they were missing the most interesting,
if not the most record-breaking meet
which has been held on the field this
year.
A faculty edict, sent forth by the
powers that be, had closed the gates
of paradise to them and ordered them
to look elsewhere for amusement. I'm
discouraged, however, by any such re-
buff and feeling that they must see
the performance in some way, the boys
made use of every vantage point which
came to hand. Knotholes, roofs, tele-
phone poles, near by windows, all held
their share of interested spectators.
Four fellows, however, not content to
watch from such a distance, being a
little more daring or foolhardy it may
be than the others, arrayed themselves
in the apparel of some of their girl
friends and wendell their way into the
bleachers, where they sat throughout
the meet much to the envy of their
less fortunate brothers.
The contest was as much like the
meets of the boys as it could possibly
be made. A real pistol was used 10
start the girls, real stop watches caught
the time and real medals were pre-
sented to the winners.
Although no worlds records vera
broken, the contests were all good and
considerable athletic talent was
brought to light, which has been un-
known up to date
Vera Brooke was the bright. partic-
ular heroine of the meet, winning four
tirsts and running a fast lap in the

CHICK WRIGHT AGAIN BEATEN
Loses in PIay-Off for Tie for Second
Place in National Amateur Bill
lizard Tournament
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 20.-Two games of
the three necessary to decide the triple
tie in the amateur billiard champion
ship for second honors were played to-
day. AS a result j. f. Poggenberg of
New York and Calvin Demarest of
Chicago will play the deciding game
tomorrow, and Harry Wright of San
Francisco, third man in the triple tie,
will have to be satisfied with fourth
prize and the honor of having made
the high run of the tournament.
Wright was defeated by both De-
marest and Poggenberg today, De-
marest beating the San Francisco man
200 to 92, while Poggenberg beat him
500 to ia Poggenberg and Wright
were tied for the single high average
prize of the tournament, 16 1918, and
this trophy goes to Poggenberg by rea-
son of his victory today.
Demarest in his game with Wright
today surpassed the single high average
to nearly a point, but as it was not
made in regular scheduled game it
does not count.
In his game with Wright, Poggen-
hergs high run was so and his average
II 1926. Wright's best score was 20
and his average 1926
Summary: Poggenberg, 300: high

SENATORS VOTE
AWAY s140,000,000.
AMOUNT REPRESENTS PEN
SION APPROPRIATION .
Railroad Rate Bill Laid Aside-Major
Portion of Time Taken in Dis
cussing Sea Coast
Fortifications
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 20.-In less
than twenty minutes time the senate
voted away $14O,0OO,OOO of the public
funds today.
The sum is carried b. the pension APP
preparation bill, which brief document
was made the subject of very little dis
cission.
Mr.. McCumber said the bill carried
an increase over the amount carried.
last year of about $4,000, 0O0 due to the
additions on account of the Spanish
war and the old age disability order.
He said that last year 1900 private pen
sion bills were enacted into law. They
increased the appropriation about $222,-
900. He added that the old age pension
amendment merely makes effective the
executive order.
The bill was then passed.
Lay Aside Railroad Rate Bill
The railroad rate bill was laid aside
for the day and the major portion of
the time was devoted to the considera-
ton of the Notifications bill. In that
connection the question of the necess-
sity of sea coast Notifications in the
Philippines was discussed at length,
with the result that all provisions for
such Notifications in these possessions
was eliminated from the bill. The con-
sideration of the measure was not con-
cluded.
There was also a brief discussion of
the power of the conference committee
to amend the bill providing for the
punishment for premature divulgence
of government secrets, as to make the
inhibition extend to senators and MEM
bers of the house of representatives,
but the subject was left undisposed Of
for the time.

HOUSE MAKING
SLOW PROGRESS
LITTLE ACCOMPLISHED IN FIVE
AND 0NE-HALF HOURS
Discuss Business With Microscope in
One Hand and Bill for Salary
Appropriations in the
Other
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
| WASHINGTON, March 20. - The
house of representatives today dis
cussed business with a microscope in
one hand and the bill making appro-
priations for the salaries of it's officers
and employees in the other.
The result was that although five and
one-half hours were spent in reading
the legislative appropriation bill for
amendment, less than twenty-five
pages of the measure were completed.
The spirit of economy in little things
was all-absorbing. Points of order
were made and many of them We're
fatal to the proposed increases in the
salaries of the officers, jailers, door
keepers, messengers and laborers.
A point of order which made the
engine room of the house $270 a year
instead of $3.50 as proposed caused a
constitution debate of more than an
hour on the point as to whether the
house could do as it saw fit in the
matter of fixing the salaries of it's en-
ployes. The conclusion seemed to be
that it could and that it prescribed
it's own action by its rules.
However, these rules prohibited in
creasing a salary without provision of
law.
The Final Round
The final round of the day was a de-
bate as to whether the house could get
as good packing boxes as the senate
did for its members and finally a move
was made to eliminate packing boxes
entirely from the perquisites of men,
bers, which failed.
Mr.. Prince had stricken from the
bill on a point of order provision
which gave the clerk of the house au-
thority to discharge janitors.
Some display of temper by members
of the appropriation committee was
shown when points of orders proved
fatal not only TO the proposed increases
of salary OF the sergeants-at-arms and
doorkeeper of the house, but to the
entire salaries of these officers as they
remained unprovided for.
Calls 1t Trick
Mr.. Littauer made no effort to re-
insert the regular salary, whereupon
Mr. Fitzgerald of New York character
lied this method of doing business as
likely to lose prestige for the house.
1t was a trick, he said, and predicted
that the committee would resort to the
eXpedient of supplicating the senate to
restore the salaries.
Mr.. Prince of Illinois, who had made
several points of order against provis-
ions in the bill followed with a severe
arraignment of the committee. He had
administered the same medicine to APP
propriations from other committees
and now was becoming petulant be-
cause it was being forced to take
it's own dose.
Having covered less than twenty-five
pages of the bill, the committee arose
at 500 o'clock and the house adjourned
until tomorrow.
