After the meet the leading coaches had
some remarks to make. Coach Harry
Gill of Illinois said the total was larger
than he had expected his men to make.
Dad Moulton Of Stanford said the result
was what he had predicted and to do hin
Justice he did say before the games he
expected Illinois to win. He said he
thought Chicago had had more than its
share of hard luck in the games. You
can say for me- remarked Dad. that we
are coming here until We win a conference
meet, and that | expect will he next
year
'Lonzo Stag said: Its hard to lose a
meet when you think you have won it.
Stophlet by being defeated in the two
mile and Crawley by falling in the low
hurdles knocked out on chances. The
result was as ! predicted to a certain
extent. | believed Illinois would take
points in a number Of events in case the

that's just what happened
Chicago will have a strong team next
year. Capt. Lingle, who Was in the
relay team that got second place, is the
only man TO be lost by graduation. so that
Chicago loses one-fourth Of three points
out of a total of 81. Next year Daven-
port, the freshman who ran his quarter
mile close to 40 seconds at Philadelphia,
will be eligible, as will a couple of other
rood men. Claire Jacobs, the pole
~vaulter. who is good for more than twelve
feet, may be back in college again. and
that should be a great help to the Maroons
The victory of Illinois was the second for
them in the conference games. They
carried of the honors in 1907. Michigan
won for several years in succession early
in conference history. apd Chicago Is the
only other college to take first place in
points outside of these two.
INTERCOLLEGIATE GAMES TO MOVE.
1t is the general feeling in the |. c,
A. A. A. A. that the intercollegiate games
should come to New York city just as
soon as proper accommodations for the
games can be had here. A prominent
official Of the association says: III there
| should happen to be anywhere in New
| York city next spring a field on which the
games can be held they certainly will be
shifted to this city. The rival conten-
tons of Philadelphia, New Haven, Cam
bridge, Ithaca. Princeton and Syracuse
thus can be satisfied.
Cornell would like to have the games
but there ie no 300 yard straigntaway OF
Percy Field. The hurdle races have Il
be ruin around a turn, which never woulc
do for the other competitors. ThaI
