of several coast records. together
with the possibility of new
worlds record as result of the
meet, has added considerable interest
to the coming contest. Especial inter-
est attaches to the c a1ifornia and STAN
ford entries, as the teams which rep
resent these two universities in the
western conference meet will be chosen

championship with vault of II feet
10 3-16 inches at the Berkeley relay
carnival two weeks ago, has announced
his intention of lowering his own rec
