THIRTY HIGH SCHOOLS
! ENTERED IN BIG MEET
Two Hundred and Twenty-Five Con.
testants Will Take Part i'm Rig
InterScholastic Meet To-
morrow.

Everything is in readiness for the
biz interscholastic meet to be held on
Rogers field tomorrow and thirty
high schools, with a total of 222 CON
testants, will be represented The
Hy-outs will begin Saturday morning
at 9:45 and the finals will begin in
the afternoon at o'clock. s
The domestic science and manual
arts exhibits (new features) will be
on display Friday afternoon and all
day Saturday,
A pretty contest for individual
honors will add zest to the other
strong features of the meet Kinder
of Waitsburg won first honors at
Whitman with IA points, Boylan, of
tied for second with 10 points each.
With 80 schools competing and a
chance for divers dark horses, with
one of these men a little off color,
Individual hOnors may fall to an
other party. Then there is that Te-
koa wonder, Watson, who broke the
state record for high school shot put
ting, by placing, the globule out for
As feet. Can he come back and
do as good or better next Saturday?
H. Writ, Of North Yakima too,
placed himself in the limelight by
throwing the javelin 1862 feet in
ches. Can he repeat?
Between several schools, then, and
between as many men, it now seems
to be a toss-up as to the school win
ner and the individual winner. And
with these known factors, one must
consider the number of men entered
over 200, and see the opportunity
there is for men not now high on the
athletic horizon, to take points here,
there and everywhere that some of
these larger high schools may fig
ure too strongly on. The ultimate
results would seem to be up in the
air and the interest that centers
around this meet, because of meets
already held where these same
schools have competed, promises to
outweigh by far, the interest in the
previous meets.
That there will be some records
broken seems now beyond question.
The great fight that will be made on
Rogers Field ought not be be missed
by any lover of keen competition,
when, with several teams running nip
and tuck in a race for first honors,
the element of doubt exists until the
relay has been fought for and won
The big meet calls every true lover OF
sport, and in answering the call, you
are helping to make "A Bigger and
Better Washington State College. u
