&. H. S. WON
FIELD MEET
Local Boys Defeated Cotton
wood Parsons Best
Point-Winner.

The track meet held at Cotton
uood last Friday between the high
.chools of Grangeville and Cotton
wood resulted in a glorious victory
for the local boys with a score of
So to 4S.
The Grangeville lads have been
raining quite industriously as far
as the weather would permit and
went to Cottonwood confident of max
ug good showing for the blue and
white of the G. II. S. The day was
good one for the meet but the
track was in very poor condition, be-
ng slippery and uneven.
Zaneis Parsons, son of Hon. C. A.
Parsons, and a senior in the high
school. was the individual star of
the meet. He took first in the so
yard dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard
dash, high jump and broad jump and
second in the discus, making a total
Of 80 points. He ran the 100 yard
dash in IL seconds flat and made
the 220 in the fast time of % 3-5
seconds His broad jump was very
good being nearly 20 feet Much is
expected of him at the Lewiston
meet
One of the most exciting races was
the mile run. Craig of Cottonwood,
tainted thirty feet from the tape and
allowed Perkins to get second in this
event. DeHaven won first place after
hard and furious race with Craig.
GTangeville won all three places in
the discus throw, rather surprising
the tall sinewy contestants from our
sister town.
Grangeville rooters expected Perk-
ins to win the shot put, but he al
lowed throw of several feet behind
his practice records to win first
place. Charles Horning again sprung
neat surprise on the crowd when
he "copped" the high hurdles in
great form Mel New won the pole
vault handily.
All of the events were closely con-
tested and on the whole it was a
very successful meet. Considering
that it was the first intersholastic
track and field meet ever held in
the county the records were good.
A crowd of about five hundred wit
messed the contests.
The local team consisted of Par
sons. Perkins, Horning, DeHaven,
Rlebold, New, and Jackson. McClos
Ky, of Cottonwood, was starter;
wayne Arnold, of this city, field
Judge, and Coach Addison, of Grange
vile, and Williams, of Cottonwood,
