SCHOOL CONTEST A
 FINANCIAL SUCCESS
ASSOCIATION IS THRIVING
ORGANIZATION NOW MEMBER OF A. A. U., AND FIGHTS
 PROFESSIONALISM.

Little Rock, May 15.-The financial end of the Arkansas Athletic Associa- tion and Arkansas Interstate Contest Association, twin industries which are fostered by the educational interests of the state, grows apace with the organ izations, and in few years the re- ceipts from admissions to the contests will no doubt care for the entire ex- penses of contestants, and the mainten- ance of the organization.
 The gate receipts at the athletic con- tests Saturday amounted to S1,035, which enabled the association to reim- purse every contestant for his railroad fare. There will be enough left, after all expenses of the organization are paid, to pay portion of the expenses of those competing in the inter- school contests. This means that the admis- sion fee to all events will pay the rail- road fare of about 400 school children to Little Rock.
 The expenses of 1914 will be much greater as a junior department will then be added, which will bring several hundred additional entries, but it is customary for each contestant to bring along one or two members of the fam fly to see him smash record, so the number of entries merely adds to the number of paid admissions.
 The cups and medals for the meet were donated by business men of Lit tie Rock, and it has already been an- nounced the premium list, which con- tained over $1,000 in cups this time, will be almost doubled for 1914.
 The association is now a member of the American Athletic Union, affihat-
