HERALD PICTURE
DECIDES MEET
PHOTOGRAPH OF FINISH WILL
SETTLE DISPUTE
Snapshot Shows That Throop Of Poly
Led Rubio of High School at
Tape in One Hundred
Yard Contest

Pictures taken by a Herald photog-
rapher of the finish of the final in the
100-yard dash at the meet of the All
Southern California track and field con-
test on Bovard field, Saturday, will de-
eide to which school the trophy will be
awarded.
According to the announcement at the
close of the events Saturday. Los An
geles high was declared the winner. but
Polytechnic, which scored 81 points to
Los Angeles highs 3S, entered protest
on the judges decision Of the winners
of the 1OO-yard dash.
No question as to the winner of first
place was made, as Giessler was easily
in the lead of the field at the crossing
of the tape, but the result of the meet
hinges on who should be awarded Sec
ond place.
The judges gave Rubio of L. A. high
second place, which caused a loud pro-
test from the spectators and resulted in
Coach Dean Cromwell of U. S. G. and
clerk of the course dismissing the judges
as incompetent.
To all who saw the finish, Throop of
Poly appeared to be entitled to second
place, which would give the meet to
Poly by one point, and relegate l.. A.
high to second position.
The pictures taken by The Herald
photographer show Giessler in the lead
and Throop breaking the tape, scant
margin ahead of Rubio, but enough in
the lead to show conclusively that
Poly was entitled to second place.
The officials in charge of the meet
will take the evidence under consider
alton this week, and the investigation
will be careful and impartial. although
all fair minded lovers of sport declare
that Poly should be credited with sec
ond place. The decision of the judges
was unpopular with the spectators and
Coach Cromwell was so dissatisfied that
he at once discharged the judges from
further participation in the games.
Nevertheless it will be hard luck for
Los Angeles high to have to relinquish
their honors, as it was bit of hard
luck that lost the relay race for the
team on the hill. An L. A. high relay
runner failed to touch the last man on
his team and Harvard was given first
place and Poly second.

Pacific Athletic Club VIII
Handle the Go

Ad Wolgast has great aspirations
for the lightweight title and yesterday
in consultation with Manager McCarey
he expressed a determination to cnal-
lenge Battling Nelson in case he wnips
George Memsic decisively Friday even
ing. Nelson has been having hard
time getting any of the challengers 10
make 1873 ringside. but as Ad Is nearer
the 1873 mark there will be no discus
sion on that score.
The Pacific Athletic club has prom
ised to stage the contest and 1t re-
mains for Nelson to say the word IN
case Wolgast makes good again IN
his fight with the Bohemian.
No contest with the gloves when
has been given in Los Angeles Witnln
a year has excited more talk than the
coming battle Friday evening between
AID Wolgast and George Memsic at
MeCarey's pavilion.
Wolgast certainly has taken a big
contract when he essays to defeat a
fighter of Memsics stamp, for while
he is not possessed of all the requisites
of a champion still Memsic can hit as
hard as an army mule can kick, and
he is clever to q certain extent, ana
Wolgast will be UP against the hardest
proposition of his career, according TO
the belief of nearly all the fans who
have watched the Bohemian's career.
Memsic is not as good as he was
when he met and knocked out Charlie
Neary. but he is infinitely improved
over the form he displayed when he
went against Phil Brock. He does not
seem to have the same stamina which
characterized his initial appearance in
the ring and his greatest hope seems
to be to nail Wolgast in the earlier
sessions and knock him out before the
brewer can get a chance to wear him
down.
Betting on the proposition is at even
figures, though not much money has
changed hands as yet. While VOL
CASTS showing with Picato has gained
him many followers all admit that he
has a big contract on his hands when
he tries to tackle such a tough citizen
as George Memsic.
Memsic did little work yesterday,
being content to take q short trip on
the road in the forenoon and rest in
the afternoon. He Is down to weight
and does not believe in being too SIREN
uous and he wishes above all to re-
serve his strength for the ring en-
counter where it will be most needed.
Wolgast went on the highway at
Venice yesterday morning and in the
afternoon he appeared at the amphi-
theater on the lagoon and after doing
his regular training stunts he boxed
