Rivalry TO Be Revived.
1t ls certain that the old time riv
airy between the state university and
the A. N NJ. college will this year be
revived and that tho meet on May
lSth will see some splendid work
both on the oinders and on The track.
Guthrie is leaving nothing undone
which will bring back the old time
pep and scrap which characterized
some OF those early and exciting
meets. While the University has al
ways taken the A. X N. boys down
the line of football the farmer boys
have had some sweet revenge on the
tract and in baseball contests. There
are ten other teams In the contest
this year but it is expected that the
close contests will De between these
two old time rivals. Each school has
entered twenty men in the lists of
entrants and II looks as il 1t would
be nip aud tuck contest between
them.
Central normal is sending a strong
team of ten and will make hard
fight for its share of honors. While
Kingfisher is expecting to clean IN
on the tennis courts on Monday, this
school has eight good men entered
for the various field events on the
day Of the meet The Northwestern
normal is sending seven OF its best
alround athletes and will be a strong
contentant for several honors.
