Friday.

Friday.
In the victory of the athletic con-
test Friday afternoon Mitchell feels
we'll compensated for the defeat she
received at the hands of Yankton
college a year ago, when these two
teams met in their annual event.
The final score was Mitchell 50,
YanKton IS.
There was a large attendance at
the meet to witness the events be-
tween Yankton and Dakota Wesleyan.
All the seats in the grand stand
were occupied and the crowd su1ged
out on the field. Dakota Wesleyan's
band, which was organized during
the winter, was out in force and played
during the afternoon and the music
had the effect Of making the after
moor gayer and full of life. The last
event was not run off until after
8 O'Clock. but the interest was so
great in them that hardly a person
left the grounds until the winner
came out in the relay race.
The Yankton team was handicap
ped to some extent by the absence of
three OF it's best men, and this had
the effect OF cutting down Ter score,
but there vas very little danger
With her best men in of winning
against Mitchell's athletes this year.
Warren, Of Yankton, was a strong
competitor for the high hurdles and
was int he lead when he reached the
last one, with Seaman in very close
pursuit. AS Warren went over the
last hurdle he stumbled and fell and
Seaman passed him, winning this
event. Hardy. OF Mitchell did some
fine work in pole vaulting, Hunt
handled the hammer throw like a
veteran and Week made a strong
Throw OF the discus. These men
contributed much to the large score
of Mitchell. Yankton showed up
we'll in the sprinting, but Allen,
their stand by in the 100 yard dash,
failed to beat out Hubbard. who
came down the stretch and won olt
in 10 2-5 seconds.
Mitchell's work on the field was
good throughout ana with their con-
uinued practice they ought to be
in fine shape to go to the inter-col-
legiate athletic meet in Huron this
month and come home with a better
position than has heretofore been
the case i'm the intercollegiate.
