PACIFIC SPORTS
FOR JAMESTOWN
Strong Delegation From the West
Will Compete at the
Exposition.
ALBERT MUM THE STAR
-----.-----
The Squad Will Be One Of the
Strongest That Will Be Seen
a at the Carnival.
ALBERT MUM THE STAR

JAMESTOWN. VA, January 12-Word
has come that the Pacific coast intends
to enter n strong team in the allround
worlds championship athletic meet,
which Is to be held Mt the Jamestown
Exposition next summer: and, Judging
from the men who are eligible to COM
pete on such q team. the promise OF q
star aggregation seems likely to be full
filled TO the letter. Many OF the men TO
come East Will probably be drawn from
tho ranks of those who made such a
good showing at the A. a U. champion
ship games at the Lewis and Clark E2-
position. in Portland, Ore. in 1906. and
In that event the athletes of this part
of the country will find themselves taxed
to the utmost If they wish to secure the
title for this coast.
One man who Is euro to be member
OF the California team is Albert Mum.
who Is considered the best alf-around high
school athlete in the West. and who will
probably wear the insignia of the Olympic
Club, OF San Francisco. Mum Is partic-
ularly strong In the high jump in which
he has mark OF fvo feet eleven inches,
and In the polo vault. In which he has
crossed the bar over eleven feet from
Mother Earth. He Is also n good miller,
and the West IS confident OF his ability
to stand high In the list If he can over
come tho hurdling of Johnny Garres, of
Michigan, and the weight throwing OF
Martin Sheridan. OF the Irlsh-Amerlcan
Athletic Club.
Another Pacific Slope competitor will
probably be Ralph Rose. whose achieve
ments with the shot and hammer have
won him great recognition in athletic
circles.
Invitations to try for place on the
team are also to be sent to Charles l..
Parsons, or San Francisco. who won the
10p-yard dash at the Lewis and Clark
Exposition in 10 seconds fiat: w. r.
Garcia, also OF Frisco. who secured first
place in the SSo-yard run in tho same
meet in . minutes 2-5 seconds; Sam
Mays. of Portland, Ore. the winner OF
the two-nile run in IA minutes 3 Us
seconds; NJ a. James and w. A. Baker,
OF Portland, the shot-putter and
hammerthrower: a. Johnson. OF Port
land, who has thrown discus
30 feet inches; Fred Burgess. OF San
Francisco. a 4f0-yarder, and a. a. Glar-
ner, a California miller. Efforts will
also be made to secure Splinter Kelly.
who holds the worlds record of 3-5
seconds for the hundred, II he joins
the coast SQUAD the team will be one
OF the strongest Western aggregations
that ever competed in a big meet
