Property.

G.. w. Reed has this week purchas-
ed the residence property of r. S.
Tucker, consisting of two cottages,
back of the Northern Pacific depot,
the purchase price being $4,000.
He buys the property as an in
yestment. Mr.. Reed states that after
several months spent in inyestigat-
ing conditions in various parts of
the west, he has become convinced
that property values are much lower
In Pullman than in most other
places, and that returns from the in
yestment in city property here are
greater than in any other locality.
Mr. Reed evidences his faith in Pull
man by investing his money here in
stead of placing it on the uncertain
Montana, Alberta or other projects,
the value of which Is still undeter-
mined.

lNTERSCHOLASTIC FIELD MEET
MAY Is.
Twenty-cight High Schools Have Al
ready Signified Intention of
Participating.

During the eighth annual inter
scholastic track and field meet to be
given in Pullman, May Is, under the
auspices of the state college the Wis
Eltors will be given an opportunity to
see the best track athletes of the
college participate in exhibition con-
tests.
Professor Charles Timblin, chair
man of the committee from the
faculty which has in charge all ar
rangements for the interscholastic
meet, said that requests had been
received from many of the high
schools for events from the star ath-
letes of the college and that the re-
quest would be complied with. MANY
OF the high school people want an
opportunity to see Jack Nelson. our
great Splinter; Clarence COOL. can
tain of the team and the northwest
champion in the mile and tWo-mile
runs, and others whose names have
been made we'll known. perform"
said Professor Timblin, land we are
going to give the visitors an oppor-
tunity on May 15."
The general committee was divid-
ed into subcommittee for the ex-
petition of the numerous details of
the big meet The subcommittee
were announced by Professor Tim
bin as follows: W. E. Ralston and
NJ. K. Snyder, finances and medals;
j. F. Boiler and NJ. K. Akers, field
work, schedule of events and pro-
gram; Professor f. A. Thompson,
housing of guests; Dr. A. A. CIeye-
Timblin, corresr ondence. Professor
Timblin acts as the personal agent
between the faculty committee and
the high schools. Already he has sent
out five circular letters to the vari-
Gus high schools of the Inland En-
pire, and this week he sent out the
call for the submission of the eligi-
bility lists. These must be in the
hands of the committee by April %.
81 find that the interest evidenced
by the high schools is unusually good
this year" says Professor Timblin.
about 20 high schools of the In
land Empire will participate and
the committee anticipates an. inter
scholastic this year that will be
hummer. The interest in the Spokane
high schools is very good this year,
as in Lewiston, Ellensburg, North
Yakima and Pendleton.
THE smaller high schools have for
the most part determined on the
adoption of a new policy this year.
Instead of entering a large number
of men in the hope of winning points
at random in any event, most of the
smaller schools are going to special
ize, devoting their efforts to certain
particular events in which they are
especially strong. In this way they
hope to compete with the larger
schools to better advantage. This will
make the larger institutions go fas-
ter than they have heretofore, as
they will be pitted against the
strongest in each event from all the
other schools of lesser size"
