East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-05-08
WINS IN
annual TRACK MEET
VICTOR BY MARGIN
OF ONLY ONE POINT
Spokane Protests on the Grounds That
Throwing OF Javelin With Both
Hands Was Not Permissible.

With a margin of one point, the
athletes of Pendleton high school Sat
urday won the championship of the
inland empire in competition with
fourteen other schools at the annual
interscholastic meet in Walla Walla.
In the last event of the meet, with
Waitsburg two points ahead. the
.n gh'y I.ght arm of Dude DeV.ne got
in.o action and the shot was showed
cut past the 41-foot mark, which was
sufl cient to land second place with
three points, thus nosing out a vic
tory.
spokane has, however, protested
the meet on the grounds that the
style of throw which Writ of North
Yakima used in the Javelin throw
was not permissible If the protest
is upheld, Spokane will be given four
additional points which will bring
their score up to IS, while Pendleton
won with only 81. However, IN the
same event Pendleton would get an
additional point as Fee would secure
third place under the Greek style of
throw and the two teams would be
tied for first.
Boylen was the star point winner
for Pendleton, taking his two events,
the mile and half, with perfect ease
and in the former event coached
Payne, the Athena runner, all around
the course. Fee captured the high
jump without difficulty and took sec
ond in the high sticks Captain Cor
don finished second in the 100 and
third in both the so and 220 while
Dickson skipped over the high hurdles
for third place.
