Il. S. FIELD AND TRACK MEET
Entries Coming Fast for Interschol-
astic at Omaha Saturday.
PROMINENT OFFICIALS TO ACT
Leading Athletes of the west TO Lend
Helping Hand to Make Meet n
Success-Five Hundred
Compete.

Arrangements for the big InterscholastIo
state High school meet have been progress
ing finely during this week. Entries are
coming fast and 1t looks II the meet
in Omaha would be the most successful
ever held In the west. ..
Those who know of the prowess of the
athletes expect to see more records broken
this year than in any previous years. 1t Is
almost certain that Wyley of York will
break the state high jump record OF feet
inches, as he has been doing 8 feet inches
without the least trouble all the year, and
made a height Of feet 1914 inches in the
Missouri valley meet held at Des Moines
two weeks ago. ... ... 49,
The relay team of Omaha Is determined
to smash the record set by the Humboldt
four last year for the half-mile, time OF
1 minute $685. seconds, and may do Ii, as 1t
made the same distance in minute IS sec
onds last Monday in the tri-city meet. The
rivalry between Mann and Wood may
possibly lower the 1OO-yard time to an even
10 seconds instead of l0Is seconds now. The
time made at the Missouri valley meet In
the 22O-yard dash was better than the state
time, and Mann is sure he can set the
Nebraska state record under his name in
that race. .,..,t' sr5
