Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1909-05-25

Wausau won the Jones' trophy cup
for the third and last time Saturday
at Appleton, and now the cup is the
permanent property of the high
school. The cup was offered as first
prize by Lawrence college to the team
| winning the Northeastern Inter
scholastic events. After the cup was
won three times by our school 1t be
came the property of our school and
Wausau by winning the meet this
year, and in 1901 and 1903 cinched the
cup for good.
TIE meet this year was fast and
very closely contested. Appleton and
Oshkosh both expected to win and
Wausau went down With quite lot
of confidence Ripon was the dark
horse and took second. The final
score was: Wausau, BOZ: Ripon, p;
Oshkosh, Is. The rest of the points
were divided between Grand Rapids,
Waupun, Appleton, Sturgeon Bay and
Tomahawk
Wausau started out slowly in the
meet and did not score hardly at all
until the last half hour, when fifteen
points came in all in a bunch, from
the low hurdle race, the pole vault
and the relay. Oshkosh started out
strong by winning both trial heats in
the high hurdles. Lampert of Osh-
kosh, was counted on as a sure win
ner of the mile run, but was beaten
out by Goodrich of Ripon, who broke
the intercholastic record by 8 seconds,
making the distance in 4:4l 3-5.
Wausau first scored in the hundred
yard dash, getting five points by
Mumm winning the event. Mumm
got third in the trial heat, but pulled
up in the final and won by over two
feet. In the other dash, the 2:2O,
Alexander won his trial heat easily,
leading the rest by couple of yards.
In the finals, however, he was not
able to place as he was handicapped
by a sore leg. Wausau had no one
entered in the mile, half mile or quar-
ter mile runs, as the coach, Jackson,
thought the events would prove too
fast for Wausau to make a showing.
The next track event that Wausau
made points in was the 2:20-yard
hurdle race, Mumm again taking first.
He broke the high school record.
In the field events Wausau scored
l4s points Six and one-thifd Of. these
points were made by Lampert; six by
Dean, and three by Mumm.
Lampert took second in the ham
mer throw, third in the shot put and
discus throw, and tied with two 9TH
ers for second place in the pole vault.
Mucks of Oshkosh, won first in the
shot put and second in the discus
throw. After the meet it was found
that he was not up in his studies and
his points were taken away from Osh-
kosh. Wausau was ahead of Oshkosh |
two points before Mucks was disquali- |
fed, and after his eight points were
taken away RipoG stepped into second
place and Lampert of Wausau, who
was fourth in the shot put and discus,
moved up to third place in both
events. ga
Reiser made a couple of good throws
with the hammer, but fell out of the
ring and was disqualified on his best
throw. Mumm and Dean both did
fine work in the broad jump, Mumm
taking second and Dean third. Mumm
was tired from his races and was not
able to equal some of his prac-
tice jumps. In the pole vault both
Dean and Lampert starred. At nine
feet eleven inches, there were four
men vaulting and two inches higher
all missed. Dean knocked the bar off
with his arm on the third try and
when the bar was lowered Dean was
the first to make it and was given
first place. Lampertt and the other
two then cleaned the bar at still
