MEET
OF COLLEGE
GETS RECORD
West Reduces Time for 100 Yard
Dash-Little Interest is Shown
in the Event

The anual field and track meet
between the different classes of the
college was held Tuesday on the
college athletic field The college
class was first with total of SO
points: juniors were second with AZ,
and the seniors third with II.
The record in the century was
shattered when West covered the
distance in 9 4-5 seconds: 3-5 second
better than the previous record. In
his other specialties, the hurdles and
hammer throw West set high marks.
Thompson was second individuai
point winner, and could probably
have made 101s feet in the vault
had there been any contestants to
have forced him to extend himself.
1t is only to be regretted that
more interest Is not manifested IN
track athletics in the college, for
each year there is plenty OF material
availible for track team that could
hold its own with several colleges or
the state in the intercollegiate meet.

ANCIENT GREECE IS REVIVED
IN BEAUTIFUL NAY FESTIVAL
AT STATE Teachers COLLEGE
Life of Achilles Depicted in Elaborate Spectacle
On Campus Participated in by Faculty, Stu
dents and Hundreds of Chidren-..Costumes
True to Times---Spectacle Witnessed by MANY

Maidenly beauty in flmy cos
tunes and flowing hair, brawny
manhood and youth in classis drap-
cry. tiny children as bluebirds and
butterflies, and a perfect morning
combined to make the Greek festi-
val at the college Wednesday an
event well worthy to be placed be-
side the successful May day frolic
of year ago
The affair centered around
the life of the mythical Greek
character, Achilles, as cleaned from
the llaid of Homer, and dealt with
events connected with his life from
the age of 10 years, until, reach
ing mans estate, he departs for the
Trojan war. The events were Civ
en- on the college campus, an i'm
promptu arena having been roped
off, with the lilac circle for back
ground.
With the exception of Achilles,
the principal characters were taken
by members of the faculty and stu
dents of the college, while children
of the grades, from high school to
smallest Kindergarten were fitting
ly costumed as troops of shepherd
boys, sewers, Greek athletes, butter
lilies, pansies, roses, breezes, sun
beams, Iris and Narcissi, echoes,
bluebirds and wood and water

any objections. and large number
