WASHINGTON, April 14.-Washing-
ton society has gone to the doks to-
day and CANNES are almost the sole
topic of conversation among the fash
ionables. While the bench show of the
Washington Kennel club, opened today
at the New Arcade, is not as large as
some held in other cities, cIassier
collection of bow-WoWs was never ex-
hibited anywhere. Senators, repre-
sentatives, government officials and
diplomats have entered their pets.
Countess Erdody shows two pomer-
anians which are almost certain to

the rarest dogs in the world, a pure

in the exhibit of Clarence Moore, mas

new battery combinations. Connie
Mack almost won a pennant last year
with his renovated team and the Red
Sox set a sizzling pace until near the
end with a team that promised no
more than the White Sox now promise.

of it.

An added interest in the Nationals
race this year is the tdoption of a
strong policy regarding the umpiring
and the protection of the umpires.
President Lynch bids fair to follow
the example of Ban Johnson of the
American in this respect and it is pre-
dicted that the day of umpire batting

No Game Yesterday.

The baseball game which was to
have been played yesterday afternoon
on Ankeny field between the Mis-
'sionaries and the Milton nine, was
called off on account of the unpleas-
antly cold weather. If the weather is
more favorable tomorrow the game
will take place then.
The Milton team has an exception
ally strong lineup this year, and they
have been going through some hard
practice this season, so will be able
to give the Missionaries a hard run.
The Whitman nine will be out in
full force with their regular men, with
Borleske as pitcher. For the Milton

Racers Make
Five Records

PLAYA DEL REY, Cal, April IA
Five new American speedway records
were established on the motordome
Mis- afternoon, the most noteworthy
icing the half mile driven by Barney
Oldfield in the Benz during which his
machine reached a speed in excess OF
a hundred miles an hour. The time
was 1871 seconds. Oldfield also drove
the Benz a kilometer in 22.SS seconds,
lowering his former mark made at In
dianapolis by IA seconds.
The so mile free for all proved the
most exciting race of the day. Ralph
De Palma, by driving his Fiat cyclone
the entire so circuits without making
stop, won in 37:55.53. This is a
new record.
At the start De Palma and Kercher
in the Darracq went out to set the pace
and reeled off the first five miles In
3:36.15. The toddard-Dayton was
running third. At the end of ten miles
the Fiat and Darracq were still fight
ing it out for the lead with Harroun's
Marmon third. They continued in
these positions lap after lap, the Fiat
never leading by more than a dozen
yards. Kerscher would rush up on
even terms at times and in the 21st
mile Kerscher threw a tire on the up
per turn and stopped a sixteenth of
mile beyond the wire. He did not
return to the track. On the next mile
the Marmon drew up in the paddock
for a new tire and the Stoddard Day
ton moved into second place where it
remained to the end
The first heat of the ten mile free
for all was won by Ben Kercher in a
Darracq with De Palma in the Fiat
second. George Robertson was too i'll
to drive his Simplex in this race to-
day but is expected out for the sec
end heat tomorrow.
Livingston Wins Handicap.
The five mile free for all handicap
proved the ability of A L. McMurtry
as a Handicapped. There were seven
starters and all finished close togeth-
err. The Stoddard- Dayton, well driv-
en- by Al. Livingston won. This car
had a handicap of II seconds. The
Marmon was second and the Isotta
third.
In the time trials Bragg drove a
Fiat two miles in 1:15.96, a new Rma-
teur record and Nikrent sent the Buick
40 ten miles in 7:35.S7 for a new class
record. Kercher drove the Darracq
three miles in 1:5771.

long step toward firmly establish
ing wrestling as northwest collegiate
sport, was taken on Saturday, April
2, when for the second successive year
o. A. c. won the conference champion
ship. The Beavers certainly have
demonstrated that the wrestling is a
Worthp sport and that the college at
Corvallis is able to turn out clever
grapplers. Last year when the sport
was young, o. A. c. was the first to
see the va ue of wrestling as a COL
legiate sport, and taking advantage
of the fact that E. J. O'Connen, the
clever eastern wrestler, was to be in
Portland, they secured him as a coach.
The University of Washington,
Washington State college and the I'm
iversity of Oregon decided that there
must be merit in the mat game and
secured instructors to coach their
Wrestlers. Meets were arranged and
wrestling as a collegiate sport was
officially inaugurated. o. A. c. bore
the burden of placing wrestling on a
firm basis, and brought both the Uni
versity of Washington and Washing
ton State college to Corvallis to COM
pete for conference honors. The Beav-
ers overwhe mingly defeated their ri
