 Fully 800 students and citizens of Conway attended the third annual meet of the Interschool Association and the sixth annual field and track of A ,ly tot ta Ath lati ic Association of Schools and Colleges at Little Rock Saturday. The four schools of Conway were unfortunate in the school contests, held Friday and Saturday, the results of which were announced at the close of the orator ical contest Saturday night. Out of seven entries in the reading, declama- tion, oratorical and musical contests, only one, Charles w. Causey of the State Normal, returned victor. Mr. Causey won first honors in the pre- paratory Reclamation contest. It was the opinion, however, of many who heard others representing Conway schools in these contests that they should also have been given the prizes, and, while the decision of the judges was UI1dJ bIIc I6Dl OL Cuo7 chita and Henderson colleges and Lit tie Rock high school eXcelled in nearly all the contests, the Conway delega- tion takes consolation in the fact that each of the local contestants acquitted himself or herself with credit to the school and the city.
 Had not the University of Arkan- sas entered the field and track meet for the first time, or had Hendrix made as good a record in the field as she did on the track, the local Meth odist college would have won first honors in the events at West End park Saturday afternoon. As it was Hendrix finished close third, with the University and Henderson col lege first and second. The University made 51 points to AS for Henderson and A for Hendrix. An examination of the results shows that if the Uni
 versity entries had been eliminated and Henderson and Hendrix moved up in the standing accordingly, Hendrix would have gained IA points, while
 Henderson would have gained only seven, making the total scores 58 for Hendrix to 55 for Henderson. Hendrix made 32 point sand ranked first in the track events, the Universi- ty running a poor third with IT points. In the field events, however, the University excelled and Hendrix waS third.
 Of the A points for Hendrix, 12 were made by Staples, who made the second highest individual record, 10 by Mathies and by Russell. In competition with 20 other schools in the secondary division, Conway high school ranked fourth, being ex- celled only by Little Rock, Springdale and Fort Smith high schools. The State Normal had only a few entries and won two points, but had the honor of carrying off the college woman's basketball trophy. Tender son college also was awarded the col lege mems basketball championship. The University of Arkansas won the college division championship, leading the division with 51 points, 26 of which were made by Russell May, captain of the team, and former Lit tie Rock high school track and field man. Little Rock high school carried off the honors in the secondary or high school division with 67 points, Stansberry leading the the school and division with the individual record of IT points.
 The highest individual records of the first four college men were Rus sell May of the University of Arkan- sas, 26; Staples of Hendrix, l2; Math- ies of Hendrix and R. Johns of Hen derson, tie for third place, with 10
