GOOD WORK.

The Herald extends heartiest con-
gratulatiOns TO the athletes of the
University of Utah who humbled the
young men from Leland Stanford at the
track meet here Saturday afternoon.
They won a clean-cut victory. their
margin of points leaving no room for
debate as 10 their all-round superiority.
II must be said. though. that their
friendly foemen were entirely worthy
opponents. After the fray was over
the Stanford coach said without hest
tation that his men had been fairly
treated. he Offered no excuses save
that his team had met a better team.
That is the sort OF spirit that makes
for clean sport.
Utah has every reason TO be proud
of its victory. The Stanford boys are
athletes Of a high order. They were
drawn from a much larger student body
than Utah could possibly muster. MAX
ing the opportunities for securing high
grade material decidedly more numer-
Gus. Besides, in the California climate
il is possible 10 engage in outdoor ath-
letics all the year round. thus giving
the representatives of Stanford a bet
ter chance 20 get into condition and
stay there. In Utah much of the work
must necessarily be done indoors
It was perhaps an advantage to Utah
to be on the home grounds before a
home crowd, but the advantage en-
joyed by Stanford. already enumerat-
ed. more than offset Utahs gain in this
regard. So it was, everything consid-
cred, a remarkable triumph for Coach
Maddox and his young men. They are
deserving of all the honors
that can be bestowed upon them.
