STANFORD IS
EASY VICTOR
CARDINALS WORST METHoDIsTs
ON clNpER PATH
Holmes Men Fail to Come Up to
Form and Northerners Excel
in Almost Every
Event

Stanford university put an over
whelming uuietus on the University OF
Southern California yesterday after
noon in the track meet between the two
institutions, and when the last eVeni
was over the total scores Inquired 9442
points to the credit of the Cardinals
and 271s for the meager share OF the
Methodists.
The result was surprise to everyone
and probably most of all TO Coact,
Holmes, who had hoped for larger
representation of places in his score
column. This disappointment may
ftfy- DO laid T. the fact that two men
uuon whom the university dependeu
for points failed to display their usual
form, and the Stanfordites were excep-
tiona1ly fortunate in coming up TO re-
hearsal marks.
Schultz had been figured as sure
second If not first In the 100-yard dash
but for some reason he failed to Keep
mn with his field and was beaten for
third by Thompson of his own school.
I,ennox was also out of luck in the
high hurdles and aid to watch three
Red Legs take away all the honors IN
the event.
Most of the time made was only fair,
although the coast record for the nan
mile relay was broken by the STANFORD
team, who made the distance in the
abbreviated limit of 2 minutes and 20
seconds. Charlie Richardson easily
bested the hammer division and won
second in the shot put. as he was eX
pected to do. flanagan, the STANFORD
pole artist, who was introduced with a
record of II feet inches, gave up after
xauIting almost foot short of his pedl-
gree, but at that carried off the honors.
/, Pomona" Brown. who has alreauy
made his name and home famous on
the middle courses, failed to make ms
usual practice time in any entrance,
although tieing Miller of stanford Tor
first in the A40-yard dash.
The track was fast and VII suited TO
tie visitors, who had grown used to the
sharp turns complained of in the be-
ginning practice. About 200 STANFORD
alumni were present to root TIE Cardl-
nails to victory and the Methodlsts were
encouraged by the university band
which kept up a charge in spite or It's
Appropriateness.
