1t is predicted that the high school
winning the Tri-state track meet Sat

teen points. And there is also strong
probability that the relay race, the
last event on the card, will decide the
championship
With nearly one hundred and fifty
athletes entered from twenty lone
schools the competition will be the
keenest in the history of track athlet-
les in this city. There will be only
104 points to be divided among these
schools. The figure placing the win
ner at not over eighteen points is con
sidered high one, for last year the
winners tied with seventeen points.
The girls athletic association have
completed very pretty pennant
which will be awarded to the winning
relay team. 1t is purple and white

Features of Entertaining.

The big meet will not be without
It's social side. Many of the visiting
athletes will be cared for at the homes
OF keokuk students The reception
and dance in Woodman hall will be
brilliant. The presentation of the low
ing cup to winning schools, the trophy
to the winning relay team and the in
dividual medals to point winners will
be made at 8 o'clock by Principal R.
L. Reid. It means that no less than
four hundred will gather in the spa
clous hall on Saturday evening. A
majority of them will remain for the
dance which will begin at 9 o'clock
and continue until midnight. Invita-
lions for this affair were sent out
the latter part of last week. The
dance will be a program one and the
reception committee will do all in it's
power for the entertainment of the
many guests. The high school alumni
will also be on hand to assist in max
ing merry on that evening.

Given Wide Publicity.

The third annual meet is expected
to be notable success. One thing
| the management must be given credit,
for, and that is the publicity attached
to 1t. Every two weeks. dating as far
back as last Christmas, newspaper
letters We're sent to almost every pub
iication in this section. including
many cities in Iowa, Illinois and Mis-
souri,. These letters were received
ana published. The Chicago papers
IN their metropolitan way heralded
the meet on several occasions. All
OF the Des Moines papers have con-
tanned news in advance of tie meet,
Whlle score and more of smaller
sheets closer to home have given it
generous space. The surrounding
towns have been made to realize that
the meet is to be big one.
In yesterdays issue of the Quincy
Herald was contained a column and a
quarter article about the meet. In a
paragraph about the Quincy entrants
1t says: Quincy has two boys who
may stand fair chance, Perry and
Bauman. If Perry gets down to work
and improves his wind, he might get
one or two silver or bronze medals in
the dashes, including the so, 100 and
22o yard events and might also
make a fair showing in the 44O. If
he enters in these, they are enough
for one man. Bauman will have
enough in the running high lump
and the pole vault. Perry has been
practicing for the weights but he
stands no chance as shown by his
work last Saturday stroup, if his
wind was better, would stand a fair
chance in half-mile and mile runs.
Considering the condition of the
track on Saturday and the very little
practice he had had, he made pref
ty good showing. Roe is another that
should be able to do something.
