Relay race-Johnston. Fedler Rock

Lake county will not figure in the
1O-yard dash at the state meet, neither
will its athletes have a show in the
220-yard dash Summers Of Hammond
is expected to win the quarter, and
Fedler of Crown Point stands a good
show of securing place in this event.
Both Summers and Fedler are ex-
pected to show up well in the half mile.
although both of them cannot place in
this event. Amoss may get a place in
the mile, but he is not expected to do
better than third.
Hammond will not get place in the
high hurdles, but Johnston of Crown
Point. If he is in good trim, should be
able to get a place in this event. Ken
nedy is expected to place in the low
hurdles.
Lake county will get nothing in the
discus. Atwood may get a third in the
shot put. Ebert will win the hammer
throw, as he broke the state record at
the South Bend meet.
Lake county will not get anything IN
the high jump. If Atwood does his best
he may make a showing in the pole
vault.
Hammond expects to get second in
the relay race, and luck might even
make 1t possible for the local team to
win this race. A conservative esti-
mate of the number of points Ham
mond will win will be 49, Five in the
quarter. in the half. l in the shot,
l in the pole vault, in the low hurd-
les, 5 in the hammer throw and 1 in
the mile.
In 1905. 21 points won the state meet;
1907, 3S points won the meet, and last
year 26 points won the meet. This
year the points are expected to be more
evenly divided among the various
schools and this will give Hammond a
better chance to win the meet.
