State College Won Meet
Athletes of the northwest colleges
opened the exposition stadium Saturday
with the conference meet, and the run
ners, jumpers and strong men of the
state college carried off the honors. The
final score was: State college 63, Ore
gon Agricultural college 80, Whitman
10, University of Idaho 10, and Uni
versity of Washington s.
The State college was the only insti
tuition entering anything like a full
team, and from the start the Pullman
athletes had matters their own way,
so far as points were concerned.
The Pullman team was well balanced
and with a large entry list, for almost
every event could have won the meet
on seconds and thirds.
The University of Washington en-
tered but three men. Owing to the ex-
position, the local institution closed
| its college year two weeks early and
the athletes are scattered.
Bantz of Washington, the best dis
Gus man in the northwest, had lame
arm.
