TRACK ATHLETICS
TO Be FEATURED
St. Thomas Turning Her At
tention to This Branch
of Sport

Minneapolis, March with the APP
proach of spring and warmer weather
track athletes ut st. Thomas crawled
from their holes and yesterday put
in their first appearance of the sea-
SON. A lasge4 and enthusiastic bunch
of track men turned out at Coach Ry-
ans call for candidates and prospects
for a successful year are all of the
best. At first it was thought that the
Saints would not be represente don the
track this year, but after careful con-
sideration Of the matter it was at last
decided to have a team and conse-
quently from now on all will be hustle
and hurry at the midway institution.
The prime motive in the having of a
track team this year Is to take part
in the intercollegiate rack meet which
will be held at Mortified on June l.
1t is the first time in many years that
the Saints will have the chance to
show what they can do against the
other Minnesota minor colleges in the
line of track work and the opportunity
is not to be neglected. They will turn
out their strongest representation at
the meet and hope to show their worth
and if possible bring home first honors.
The team will be coached by Ryan,
the former Dartmouth star, with Pro-
fessor Norton. another eN-Dartmouth
man as assistant. Both r. we'll vers-
ed in the fine points of the game and
arc expected to develop a strong team
for the cadets. Many good men arc at
the school and will all be out for the
team.
Gilman Will Be in Line
"Puss" Gilman, n of the fastest
men that ever attended st. Thomas,
will be mi for the fifth and hundred
yard dash and he is a sure point win
ner for the purple and gray. Carafelt,
a new mar from the Pacific coast reg
ions. with a good reputation and
is expected to be a running mate for
Gilman. He has Won a number Of
races with stars of the far west and
is sur to make Il few points for the
college.
There arc a host of middle and long
distance men That arc likely to turn
out and these will all get a chance To
show what they can do along the rum
ming line. For the mile run Ray Sean
Ion. Royatsos and MaoMahon seem to
be the best at the school and it will he
difficult TO pick the best from the
three. Westfall and Fahey will he out
Smith n Martins are the candidates
for the half mile or the quarter. They
are able to go the distance in good
style.
Well Fortified In the Jumps
1t is in the high and broad jump and
pole vault that the Saints are plac-
ing their hopes of getting the most
points because of the fact that they
have one of the best men in the state
and a man that Is looked upon as hav-
ing a great future in the athletic line
to represent them in these parts Of
the game. This is Mullane. q recent
importation from Dubuque, Ia. where
he attended Saint Joseph's college be-
fore coming to ST. Thomas. He holds
the high school record of hat state in
the high jump while his marks in the
pole vault and in the broad jump are
also among the best. If he can show
anything like the form that he exhibit
ed there he will be a welcome addition
to the Saints squad and a sure point
winner in the coming meet.

rounds ever recorded in the city's fs-
tic annals.
II was knocked out completely
standing on his feet" was what Ed
die McGoorty. the famous middle
weight. said of Erne after the speedy
conflict. 1t was a fact that Erne was
practically helpless before Bronson's
onslaught during the whole battle.
Bronson tok lead after lead away
from Erne and left the easterner daz-
most every gong. 1t was a fierce fray
from gong to gong. and Erne ac-
knowledged after the meeting that he
was unable to stop Bronson's punish
ment at any time.

Bronson after the go. but if Erne is
not satisfied I am willing t o meet him
for twenty rounds at any time and

Bronson will now meet all corners
in defense of the title. He believes
that the legitimate weight for wclters

for many years. and at that is willing

the Indiana man at the 142-pound
limit.
Ferns has expressed a desire to

pest favor by knocking out Dave
Deshler. but Bronson has met Desh-
Ter successfully three times and does
not fear the Kansan's chance at the

ARE WROTH

Winnipeg. March TRAP shooters
In the west are up in arms over the
suggestion that a team to represent
Canada at the olympic shoot in Swe-
den should be selected from the east
without any reference to the many
shots who live west of the great lakes.
It Is pointed u that there are more
trap shooting clubs in the west than
in the east. and 1t is felt there that
the selection Of a team should not be
made without competition Of some
kind.
Many cracks between here and the
coast would welcome an opportun-
tty of irving for the Canadian team.
and in Winnipeg there ar several
who would be only too glad to 20
east in an attempt to make good. 1t
10 claimed that Ford Thompson Of
the Fort Garry club is the only Ca
madam sharpshooter who has won the
title of champion in competition in
which there were no restrictions Of
any kind.

Billy Schober. Dick Shepperd. George
Bothner, Matsula the Jap, Gustafson,
and a host of lesser lights have been
the more recent victims at the hands
of the champion
Something of a parallel runs along
in the careers of Miller and Sailor
Jack. 1t so happened that the sailor
thought he would make a fighter.
Jack Parres robbed him Of the idea
before it was thoroughly Matched.
Parres in those days could really fight
ON and in addition he was bigger
in every way than the marine. But
size didn't cut any difference to Jack,
and he sailed in at the call of time.
This all occurred up in the Copper
country. as some of the natives up
there doubtless recall the instance.
A lucky punch almost put Parres out
at one stage Of the battle. but in the
end he little marine got an awful
beating. His bulldog tenacity didn't
know the meaning OF the word quit,
and they had to usher in that hors de
combat thing to end the battle.

The world and Sailor Jack aspires to
the title. Let the tilt be Il merry one,

High School Teams in a
Return Game

Tomorrow night at the Y. NJ. c. A.
will occur one of the most sharply
contested basketball games of tho
year. The game is the second of the
year between Fargo and Grand Forks.
Fargo won the first game in the Gate
City by a margin of three points e.
20. That the Grand Forks men will
endeavor to revenge the defeat at Far
go goes without saying.
The boys have been practicing
faithfully ever since the game at Far

certain. A big crowd is anticipated at
the Y. NJ. c. A. tomorrow night when

M'GOORTY TO BOX
:. KELLY FOR TITLE

Chicago. March Hugo Kelly of
Antioch, ILL.,. and Eddie McGoorty OF
Oshkosh. Wis. claimants of the mid
dlewetght title. will meet at South
either March = or 10. The Hoosier
promoters wanted to match Willie
Richie and Eddie Murphy for this
date, but the latter refused to make
weight for the coast boxer. Richie
wanted the weight to be 1874 pounds
at s o'clock on the day Of the fight,
but Murphy demanded a heavier fig
ure.
To close followers Of the game, the
Kelly-Mc Goorty bout will be a much
more attractive contest than the mill
between the lightweights. Kelly and

THE PRESS AGENT.

This brings up to the old stuff about
the prophet being without press no.
tees in his Nv country. For three
years Walter Miller resided on Hug
HIT venue. Superior. and during all
that time the little fellow was not
known to fame. 1t was after he did
the hike act that fame began to perch
upon his banner and he worked his
way steadily up the wrestling lad
der.
While a great many people don't
know 1t. Miller is Of Polish parent
age. Hc came to the head OF the lakes
when he could speak scarcely q word
of English. The parents of the iitle
chap were desperately poor, and with
his scant knowledge Of this country.
he struck u for the first section
where he thought that he would be
likely to find employment.
Miller was told that the ore docks
at the head of majestic Lake Superior
afforded employment for hundreds Of
men. and it is said that he walked
part of the way to Superior. so out Of
money was the future worlds cham
pion wrestler.
1t was not until Miller went to St.
Paul that he took up the wrestling
game at all seriously. But even be-
fore he became very proficient In the
mat pastime he had the burning am
bition to become Il great boxer. 1t
was Mickey Gibbons. the boy who is
the rage of the east at the present
time. who robbed Miller Of the notion
that he was destined to be a great
fighter. When Gibbons got through
with the little wrestler, like Frank
Gotch after his experience with
Boomer Weeks. the recently elected
fire chief Of the Tacoma fire depart
ment, Miller was content to go back
to the wrestling game.

VALUE OF THE SMALL COLLEGE.
Senator Roots Paper at the Hamilton
Centennial.

| Senator Elihu Root, one of the trus-
tees of Hamilton college, Clinton, \. y,
| for the celebration of the centenary OF
the college, wrote a paper on the his
of Mr.. Root at the Chicago convention
the paper was read by President Melanc-
thon Woolsey Stryker at exercises in
the chapel on the campus. Senator
Roots paper concluded with this tribute
to the influence OF the small college;
with all that the great university
gains, it continually loses something
with its growth and this is what it
loses the personal touch and develop
ment of character. 1t is something that
only the small college can do, and only
the small college with the right spirit.
Hamilton does it because the spirit OF
the founding in the wilderness per-
sists. She has held to the old faith.
"She has never sought TO be voca
tional institution She does not teach
men to be lawyers or doctors or clergy
men or bankers or farmers, She is an
educational institution. She seeks to de-
velop. to train to form, to educate
youths to be men competent to fit them
selves for any vocation. She has been
kept true by her traditions, by the
strain OF simple farmer boys who have
come plodding over the hills to her
examinations, by the great proportion
Of her students, who come not because
they are sent or because it is the cor
rect thing to do but because they are
eager to make their way in the world.
The college has grown, the buildings are
more numerous ami expensive the physi-
cal appliances are more adequate. The
pathetic little schedule of property of
a century ago has long since passed
the million mark.
But all these things are of minor inn
portance, for what would it profit the
college TO gain them and lose it's own
soul The richest possessions OF the
institution are the multitude Of lives,
past and present. that would never have
been educated if the college had not
been here; the intelligences that wou
not have been enlarged by learning AMI
literature; the spirits that would not
have been quickened but for her; the
unrecorded influences for the betterment
of thousand communities to which
her graduates have gone; the part she
has played in the development of our
country along lines of Christian civli1a-
ton. The great thing to be said. as we
review the century, is that the college
always has been, in its essential charac-
ter, the same institution which drew
its life, in the wilderness, from the
struggles and sacrifices of Kirkland
always inspired by the same spirit, faith
full to the same cause, and working out
the same heneticient purpose
