with the states victory. two names
must be linked, to go down in the annals
of Western athletics as symbols of stam-
ina. ability and sheer grit, that cannot but
be compared with the great feats oil
American athletics in world famous Olym-
piads. The heroes are Clarence Ireland
and Carl Cline, and while many an ath-
lete deserves notice in the conference
halls of fame for his work today. these
two lead them all.
"In the first heat Of the loo-yard dash
pressed to the utmost speed by Travers
of Utah. Ireland passed the barrier in
9 As seconds. tying the worlds inter-
collegiate record. Four watches, held by
the most experienced timers in the con-
ference. clocked the time, and official
measurements afterward verified the dis
tance.
'.ln the second preliminary Cline finished
in o fiat. equalling the former state rec
ord. In the 22o both tied the state rec
ord of % seconds.
That was in the morning In the after
noon the first event was the 440-yard
run. With Ireland and Cheese Of C. C.
Cline ran a wonderful race. Going at
2:2o speed, he rounded the course in
48.4 seconds. almost seconds better
than the previous mark.
After the 44o run. Cline and Ireland
really began to show their powers. Cline.
again pressed by Ireland, won the 100
yard dash finals in 10 seconds fat. In
the 22o-yard dash finals. the two stars
came in neck and neck. caught for the
same time by the officials Ireland was
awarded the victory in 225. although
either might have had it without argu-
ment.
Finally. to cap their performances Of
the day. sent in to the mile rel.y. as the
runners for the last half of the distance
the two ate up a lead which Utah had
gained. and Cline. making tremendous
sprint at the finish. distAnced the Nor
mon. The record for the quarter was 3
minutes 90 AS seconds. or is Sec
onds better than the last intercollegiate
conference mark.
The facts speak for themselves. M
athletes in the state have ever done whal
these two did today"

MADAME HELENA IS
WARMLY RECEIVED
Soprano Of Aborn Company Is
Successful in Rendition Of
Part in lucia"

No Aborn star has received a moro
enthusiastic and gracious welcome than
did Nine. Helena at last nights per-
formance Of Lucia di Lammermoor."
at the National Theater. With Dcmen-
leo Russo as Ravenswood and Louis
D'Angelo as Henry Ashton, the soprano
had notable support, the singing and
dramatic capabilities of both Of these
singers being most excellent.
Indeed. the audience was startled Into
interrupting the sextet with applause
for Russo. whose superb manner Of
attack and tone quality rang out the
well-known music with rare power.
Mime. Helena, although roundly ap-
plauded at other times. was vocally at
her best in the mad scene, and handled
the difficult aria capably.
Domenico Russo. unlike many Of the
Aborn stars, sang his part In English,
although at times II was difficult to
know whether he had relapsed into bis
native tongue.
Louis D'Angelo pleased with his even
barytone, which shows to even better
advantage in this opera than in others
in which he has appeared.
William Hawksley appeared as Sir
Arthur Bucklaw, Francis ], Tylcra as
Bide-the-Bent, and Miriam NorriE as
Alice.
AT ton!ghts performance Giuseppe
Agostini will sing the part Of Edgar In
place Of Russo, and tomorrow matinee
Russo will sing again. The remainder
Of the cast will remain unchanged.
