VIRGINIA
TEAM ENTERED
In Annual Track and Field Meet
Of PittSburg Press at
Forbes Field.

Director Of Athletics G. E. Pyle
announced last evening that members
Of the Varsity track team would COM
pete IN the annual track and field
meet given by the P%ittsburg Press
at Forbes field, Pittsburg. on Satur-
day, June II. The meet Is staged as
an Amateur Athletic Union event,
and all the athletes must DO regis
tered. West VlrGintR's men will be
registered As from West Virginia I'm
iveBity.
The expense Of taking the team
members to Pittsburg will be heavy
but the athletes themselves will pay
part and private subscription and a
donation OF $40 from the senior
class Of the university will cover tho
financial outlay.
The meet Is the biggest thing in
track and held OF the many events Of
this kind held in P~ittsburG every
years and all the crack track athletes
Of western PenntylvRnia, will partici-
pate. Ted Meredith. the famous Penn
quarter and halt-miler, will be pres
emit.
Those Of the Varsity squad who
will make the trip are Rowley, An
derson, Griffith. Morgan, Trotter, De-
Forest, Freutel and Briers. Steven
ron will be unable to go and Newman
will not make the trip inasmuch as
the hammer throw event Is not card
ed for the meet.
The -Trot-
ter relay team will run in the mile
relay at PIttsburg while in a half
mile relay, Rowley, Anderson, De
Forest and Freutel will compose the
Varsity team. Captain-elect Briers
will run in the high and low hurdles
and will be entered in the broad Jump

At Morgantomn between West
Virginia and Wesleyan
Baseball Teams.

The college baseball season for the
state will be practically concluded on
Monday at Morgantown when Wos-
leyan will make n last desperate
stand against West Virginia Univer-
Rity to prevent that team having a
clear and decisive title to the state
championship. Wesleyan's chance
to win from the University Is not re-
gnrdcd as extremely bright, but the
Methodist crew gave the University
contingent a run TOR Its money in the
game at FairmOnt last Monday and a
team which possesses tho hitting
power that Wesleyan does is always
dangerous, no matter what its status
IN a race.
West Virginia in practically cinch-
ing the state championship to date
has done so on the merits Of the
team. There ls still n possibility
that Wesleyan could cloud itE title by
winning at Morgantown Monday, but
as previously stated. this is not likely
and the chances are that West Viz
ginia will have an altogether unQues-
toned right TO he termed cham
pions' at baseball MS we'll as at
football, track and sundTy other
sports for this college year.
The come back" Of tho Universal
~ teams after three years Of defeat
Is without doubt very gratifying TO
supporters Of Varsity athletics. To
be repeatedly humbled by the athlet-
&c representatives Of an institution
with little more than half the enroll
ment cannot have been a source OF
pleasure to Unlversit alumni. and
while II IL apparent TO all unbiased
persons who desire healthy rivalry
between state college athletic organ
lzatIons that West Virginia and
Wesleyan arc the logical opposing
forceB around which this rivalry
should he built, 1t is nevertheless
also apparent that the clean sweep Of
the University representatives.. espe-
ciRlly in such decisive fashion, has
this year been a detrlment to this RI
valry.
Aside from a few strongly parti.
san supporters OF one or the other OF
tho institutions therc are no fol-
lowers Of I~nter-college sports In
West Virginia but that earnestly de-
sire a continuance Of the fine rivalry

parents understood the Importance of
this we are sure they would make a
very strenuous effort to have all our
scholars try for the honor. If a

their children to do much in day
school, being absent from one fourth
to three fourths of the time?

SPRAY DATES

The spraying for the codling moth
will be from June End to 9th. This
spraying should be very carefully
done, and the apples covered with a
fine mist. The spraying date would
have been earlier had it not been for
the fact of so much cold weather,
which delayed the Matching of the
worms. A few worms Matched very
early, but as there were so few, it
was not necessary to spray until now.
Be sure that every apple is coated
with the spray will keep you ad-
vised as to the other spraying dates
later.
