interview with him in order to point out
to him the dangers to his party and hers
caused by his unfortunate treatment Of
the issue of woman's suffrage. The
President granted the interview. which
took place with every regard for official
etiquette, apparently the first political
virtue in present-day America.
President Wilson was heckled on
July 4, if by heclSling is meant that

of his audience: why, then, do YOU or

YALE PICKED ID

Cornell Favored for First HOnOrS
 Blue Looks Next Best

New Haven, May 17-Its just as safe to predict second place for Yale in the coming intercollegiate games as it is to declare Cornell the point winner in advance declare several track judges. The Ehs barring Cor nell, of course, have the only welI- balanced track and field squad in tho eastern colleges this spring, and un- less Johnny Overton breaks a leg and Wesley Oler is taken sick in the meantime, Yale is almost certain to be the runner-up to Jack Moakley's pupils in the Harvard stadium.
 Yalo has a good sprinter in Hea- ton Broadway. He did ten seconds for the hundred, and beat twenty two for the furlong at the Yale- Harvard games last Saturday. Val Wilkes place in the quarter-mile has not been plugged up, but there's Johnny OVertOn, who is sure of place in two of the three longer races.
 Farwell may be good for a couple of points in the hurdles Braden did forty-four feet with the shot last Saturday, which should be good for' a minor place in the big games. Oler will score we'll in the high jump, and with Hampton and Oler, both of whom have bettered twenty -threo feet, Yale should grab a couple of points in the broad Buck and Nagel both did twelve feet six inches in the vault last Saturday, which means that Yale will probably have a say in the split-up of the various ties that usually result when the vaulters start their afternoons task.

Re-Enter the Great XiIn.

Can it be that after two compara- lively lean years the Great zim, meaning Heinie the Hittite, is about to regain his own again?
 In 1911 Heinie batted .307 with the Cubs. In 1912 he reached .372 leading the league; in 1913 his mark vas .313, but in 1914 and 1915 he fell below 300 toppling to .265 last year.
 Now Heinie is back with his pris- tine punch, his ancient wallop, with the dust erased from his battingg eye. He enters the sixth week of the campaign just over .350 and any rumbe of these blows have been for extra bases. In addition to which the Renowned Zim is playing the star game of his hectic frenzled and harassed career at third.
