DATES SET FOR THE

MEET At j
High Schools of State to Com
pete in Big Event on
May 18 and 10

Plans for the annual interscholastic
field meet, so far as they have been
completed up to the present time, are
set forth in a letter that has been
addressed to the school superintend-
ents Of the state by DR.. Dunlap, ply
steal director at the university. His
letter follows:
The ninth annual field meet for
the students OF the high school of
North Dakota will be held on univer-
sity field, May 10 and 20, under the
control of the Athletic association Of
The state university. The prelimin-
aries will be held on Friday and the
tianls on Saturday.
SThe interest and enthusiasm in
the interscholastic championships
have steadily increased and, with the
assistance and cooperation of all the
schools, the meet this year will sur
pass all previous contests. To add to
the interest of the meet, it has been
decided to have a half-mile race and
to permit schools to send seven con-
testants exclusive of the relay team.
And it is the hope of the management
to hold this on the new athletic field.
The latter point depends on the kind
Of weather we have.
THE meet will be governed by
rules similar to those of previous
years. Each school may send a team
of seven contestants exclusive of the
relay team. The university authori-
ties will furnish board and lodging
from Thursday supper to Sunday
breakfast inclusive, for the contest
ants and coach of each school. Gold,
silver and bronze medals and ribbon
badges will be given to the winners
Of first, second, third and fourth
places respectively. A banner will
be given to the school winning the
greatest number Of points based upon
the number of male students enrolled
in the high school during the year.
High schools having ten or fewer
male students will be credited with
1916 points for each point won by
members of its team: High schools
having from ten to twenty-five male
students will be credited with 2.75
points for each point won; high
schools having from twenty-five to
forty male students will be credited
with 1.75 points for each point won

caused by their own indiscretion.
That is to say, most diseases are
the result of medication which has
been prescribed to relieve and take
away beneficen and warning symp-

Most of the work of doctors In the
past has been to prescribe for symp-

disease and a symptom being some
thing that the average man does not
even yet know.
And the curious part is that ON
these points all physicians are. fully

truism, triteness and commonplace.

From the plans made, it is expect

be done on the matter at this time.
City Engineer H. G. Lykken has pre-

time within the next month.
The kind of paving to be laid is
left to the option Of the residents and
