Indications for Big Turnout from
Many Colleges.
PHILADELPHIA, March 19-PennsyI-
vania's athletic management is now max
ing arrangements for the sixteenth annual
relay carnival, to be held on Franklin field.
April 3, and according to the present out
look, all previous meets will be outdone by
this one. From assurances already re-
ceived, practically every big university
east Of the Mississippi and possibly one
or two beyond that line, will send their
best athletes. The eastern teams, which
are virtually sure to be on hand, include
Yale Columbia, Princeton, Cornell. Dart
mouth and probably Harvard while from
the west will come Michigan, Chicago I'LL
nois. Wisconsin and several others. These
big teams would be enough to insure the
complete success of the meet, but in addi-
tion there will be hundreds of athletes
on hand from every school and college of
Importance In the country
The entries have now reached the STAGE
where the management has been unable
to add further events. In order to ao-
commodate the new entrants they have
been put in events which are already well
filled. In no other way would it be possl-
Die to complete all the events in a single
afternoon. The management has several
times considered the matter of holding
some OF the scholastic events in the morn
ing or on the previous day, but this sug-
gestion has not met with approval
AS usual, there will be three champion
snip relays, one mile, two miles and four
miles, and they carry with them the inter
collegiate championship of America. It is
the general belief that the University OF
Michigan will make heroic efforts to win
back its laurels in the four-mile event
When Pennsylvania won this race In such
sensational fashion last year it was the
first time that Michigan had ever been
beaten at four miles. As the Wolverines
have lost Hull, the star of their 1909 team.
and Pennsylvania is stronger than last
year. there does not seem to be much hope
for the westerners.
II Is expected there will be a great fight
in the one-mile race and that this event
viii draw more entries than any of the
others. 1t is expected that Princeton, with
the best lot Of quarter-milers In its re-
cent history, will concentrate its best ef-
forts here, and II Harvard sends down a
team 1t will probably do likewise, for the
crimson is stronger in this event than in
any OF the others. Both Michigan and
Chicago are likely to prove strong con-
'Nois heie' Last year chicago won the
event, beating Michigan in almost thesl last
stride Michigan is sure to be stronger
this year, while Chicago always concen-
trates its strength in this event.
In the two miles Yale and Pennsylvania
will probably be the strongest contenders.
though there will be other starters TO he
determined later. Yale won the event last
year in almost record-brealxing time. The
special events will be the same as a year
ago namely, 1OO-yard dash. 12O-yard
hurdles broad jump. high jump. hammer
throw shot put pole vault and discus
throw.

HERMAN ASKS RETURN MATCH
Manager of Zbyszko Anxious to Pit
Pole Against Westergaard.
SURE HE CAN GET TWO FALLS
II He Does Not He VIII Forfeit
ZbysEkO's side of the Money
to Any Charitable Or
EnnizatiOR.

BUFFALO. N Y, March Ito the
Sporting Editor of The Bee, Dear Sir
1 am informed that the opinion prevails in
your city since the wrestling contest be-
tween Zbyszko and Westergaard that the
latter had all the best of the match up to
the time he was injured, and the concensus
of opinion seems to be that the Des Moines
man would have won had 1t not been for
the accident when the men fell out of the
ring.
If this is the opinion of a majority of the
spectators who witnessed that contest,
would like TO have you announce through
the valuable columns of your paper that
I am prepared to match Zbyszko against
Westergaard in a finish match, the contest
to be held either on a mat placed upon the
floor or in a properly constructed ring,
where an accident like the former one is
impossible.
Under these conditions 1 will sign articles
on behalf of Zbyszl5o, and If he does not
gain two falls from Westergaard, 1 am
willing to donate his end of the purse to
any charitable organization you may sug-
gest. I am doing this solely to establish
zbyszko's right as the most worthy op-
ponent for Gotch. fully realize that in
Westergaard he is meeting one OF the star
heavyweights OF America, but II my man
cannot win from him decisively there is
no use in his clamoring for a chance at the
worlds championship title.
Zbyszko wrestles DR.. Roller In Kansas
City on the 22d of this month, and meets
Mahmout. the Turk in a finish contest at
the Coliseum, Chicago. on March 20. Yours
yery truly, j. H. HERMAN.

VAST SUMS ARE HUNG UP
FOR COLT RACES THIS YEAR
Nearly Every Grand Circuit Meet Has
Important Colt Futurity
on the Card.

NEW YORK, March l9.-Every Grand cir
cult meeting of the coming season, with
two exceptions, will have at least one i'm
portant colt Futurity. and when the racing
season closes, 1910 will be the greatest in
turf history for the amount of money hung
up in colt stakes. As far as the grand cir
cult proper is concerned, the amount to be
contested for by 2 and s-year-oIds will be
increased from $2s5OO to the magnificent
sum OF $4,000, or, 1850 more than we had
in 1909. This increase is due to the four
new Futurities which will be raced this
year, and added to this the S21, 600 Ken
lucky classics and the $500 Of the West
ern Horseman, nearly s115,OOO will be the re-
ward to high-class trotting and pacing
youngsters
The first important Futurity race of the
season will take place during the De-
troit meeting on the second week OF the
circuit with the $4,000 Chicago Horseman's $
guaranteed stake as the feature This
stake was for mares bred in 1905, or for
foals Of 1907, and as it is only for 3-year-
o!ds, the event will take place for the first
time. 1t is guaranteed for S15,0O0 but as
all entrance fees payable from now up to
the night before the race will be added to
the guaranteed sum, 1t is expected TO be
worth fully $4,000, II not more.
The Championship Stallion stake to be
given under the auspices of the American
Association Of Trotting Horse Breeders,
another new addition to futurities, is al
ready conceded as part of the program at
the North Kendall meeting. While the
total actual value Of this stake will not be
known until the night before the race, yet
1t is fully believed to be worth $4,000.
The Matron stake of the same association
is also new and will be raced at some big
track down the line between Cleveland
and Columbus meetings. Its final value is
estimated at $4,000
At Readville will be raced the Horse
Breeders Futurity. the first of the fixture
events. 1t is worth $l25OO for s-year-oId
trotters and PAGERS and 2-year-old trotters.
The state fair meeting at Syracuse will
have this years fourth new colt stake
namely the Horse Worlds guaranteed
stake of $500, and as all entry fees from
now up to the time of the race are added
to the guaranteed amount, its value To
winners is estimated at $4,000, IL not more.
Unless some unexpected changes are
made over the schedule Of last year. Co
lumbus will again have two important
Futurity races-the Horse Review and
Stock Farm-worth together about $40
while Lexington will have it's classic $21, ,Ocd
Futurity.
The Western Horseman's stake Of 81, 500
will no doubt, be made fixture OF the
Indiana State fair racing card at Indian
apolis. and while it will be raced outside
OF the Grand Circuit yet the majority of
competitors will come from the ranks OF
other Futurltl stakes, and this too. should
be counted among the years important colt
purses.
Taking all Futurites, old and new, at their
fair estimated value, It is shown that from
Detroit down to Lexington the total
amount to be awarded to youngsters ex-
ciusively will be nearly $4,000.

PRACTICE FOR OMAHA MEET
Iowa, Drake and Grinnell Will Send
Teams to Gate City April /.
AMEs MAY BE REPRESENTED
State College Athletes Not in Best
Form Because of Lack of OPP
pOrtunities for Indoor
work.

IOWA CITY Ia. March 19.-(Special.)-
Between the winter season Of basket bali
and the spring contests in base ball and
track events, the athletes in the state are
busily preparing for the spring season, and
the only contest Of interest during the lull
will be the Omaha meet scheduled for
April l.
Drake and Iowa will be represented at
this meet, both Track Coach Jerry Delaney
OF the Hawkeyes and John L. Griffith Of
the Christians wishing to try out his can
didates in competition. Whether Ames will
send a large team has not been determined
by Trainer Jack Watson, as he prefers to
wait for the weather developments in the
next few days before deciding on the per-
sonnel or size of the squad he will send.
AS he is handicapped by the lack Of
gymnasium facilities he viii depend on the
weather man for the opportunities to train
his candidates. Grnnell will be strongly
represented by four OF their stars, who
will not be eligible for later meets These
cracks, making their last appearance for
the scarlet and black, arc doped to cut
considerable figure in the big indoor meet
though they have not been training so
consistently as the other track men out
at Grinnell.
So preparation for the first annual indoor
event at Omaha holds the boards OF the
leading institutions and the fine weather of
the last week has given the trainers and
coaches the long desired opportunity to
let their squads work outdoors. According
to present indications the Omaha event a
week from next Friday will see fast ag-
gregation of stars representing the Iowa
schools.
During the last few days Track Coach
Jerry Delaney has had his men on the
cinder track on Iowa field. 1t is in the
best of condition since the park was built
and the "sphinxi has not been slow in
taking advantage of the weather mans CO.
operation. Trial heats have been run and
Delaney admits he is happy over some Of
the records clipped off by his pupils. Not
only in the varsity squad have the results
been satisfactory, but also in the fresh
men track men, and the freshmen are get
ting more anxious every day that a meet
be scheduled with Minnesota here for
May 2l.

Bile material Tuesday. The men we're taken

Whatever zbyszko is able to do, the fact
remains that Jess Westergaard had all the
better Of the match at the Auditorium and,
in the opinion of the majority of specta-
tors. would have won had he not sprained
his ankle in what looked like foul on the
part of Zbyszko.
Before the match zbyszko was looked
upon as sure and comparatively easy
winner, but Westergaard displayed such
amazing skill and strength against the
mighty Pole keeping him constantly on
the defensive, that local fans will have to
be shown" now.

Why should any one want to ride in an

JACK PRINCE ON, THE COAST

NEW YORK, March 19-Reports from
California state that automobile folks
thereabouts are well pleased with the an
nOurcement that many star drivers have
signed entry blanks for the opening meet
OF the new board motordrome ct Playa del

to no small extent.
