LOCAL YIN. C. A. V|CTORS
Capture More Points Than All Other
Teams in Northwest
Combined,

The full reports of the northwestern in
terstate Y. NJ. c. A. track and field meets
were received by Physical Director Brown
of the Y. NJ. c. A. yesterday. and the To-
cal team won out by an overwhelming
score. In fact Salt Lake captured a to-
tai of 24Ia points out of a total of forty
five, or more than all the other teams
combined. The same result was flashed
over the wire a year ago, when these
teams met and gives a fair idea of the
class of athletes in Salt Lake COM
pared with the other western cities.
Physical Director Brown said yesterday
that he would at once begin work on a
big inter-city track meet for next month,
10 include the Y NJ. c. AS of Denver.
Omaha, Salt Lake and intermediate cit
les.
The following table shows the points
won and lost by the teams in the Friday

CATCHER DOES THE WORK

Cleveland. O., Dec. 2S.-'Its all well
enough" says old Cy Young, who is still
one OF the best pitchers in the business.
despite almost twenty years service, ito
talk about Old Cy, Big Addie Joss, the
Rube. Christy Mathewson. Eddie Plank.
and the rest of US so-called pitchers who
are occasionally credited with winning u
game, but what would any of US be
without a brany, hustling watchful
catcher there behind the. bat?" He con-
tlnued:
ITS strange how little credit the I'M
thinking fan gives the catcher in a game.
Sometimes after hard-fought battle, the
crowds along the street will cheer the
pitcher all the way to the hotel But
there is never a handicap for the catcher,
who probably ought to have three-fourths
of the credit. The man with the big mitt
counts a whole lot in the battery and it's
up to the pitcher TO give him full recog-
milton"
