WHY IS A CITY ORDINANCE?

City Marshall Porter Mcdonald and Police Judge A. Wentworth have launched eternal vigilance for viola tors of the traffic rules of the city, and of course the curse of a few is being heaped upon them
 What motive can there be that would cause an auto vent his spleen these city officials is hard conceive vet it is done. The City Council framed the rules for traffic in the city mts enacted ordinance and instructed these officials it's enforcement They certainly did not establish these rules for the sake of giving autOsts something to violate.
 Some will argue that the wide streets of the city Standard rules of traffic necessary the open highway.
 At any rate the city officials intend to all vo latOrs and of these regulations results in the prevention of only accident that is the pur pose for which they are intended.
 Go to it, gentlemen.

TRACK SEASON
 PROMISES AN
 ARRAYTALENT

WASHINGTON, April 15 (by Asso- ciated Press) Mass competition is to be part of the life of the colleges as we'll as of the army during the present track season. Plans already are complete for meet of company against company, regiment against regiment, and camp against camp for the soldiers in the camps of the United States. The National Colleg- fate association and the Western In- tercollegiate conference also will fos- ter meets among their members. In these meets each camp or college will hold the tests for their men, the army marks being sent to the athletic di- vision of the commission on training camp activities and the college marks to both national and division head quarters.
 The need of competitions for great numbers of men was emphasized by the experience of the army physical directors. Before the meets in the different. camps, as far as known, but one mass meet had been held, that be- ing contest between Drake univer- sity and the University of Nebraska in 1914. In this about three hundred men competed on each side. Attempts to have other schools in that section of the country failed. The idea was later adopted by the swimming clubs of the west. but the army made the plan popular and last spring the Western Intercollegiate conference in troduced the plan among most of it's colleges.
 This year the army is standardiz- ing and broadening it's work, and the Big Ten is planning for a formal meet in May and the National Collegiate association is calling upon it's mem bers to hold mass meet of all the male members of the freshman class es. The meet of the National Colleg- fate association is the first athletic program of that body. It has an ac- tive and joint membership of about 130, including all the larger colleges and universities of the United States. It is the belief of the committee that all but a very few of the schools will enter eighty per cent of their male
The Cordova daily times., 1919-04-16

freshman enrolment, the percentage necessary to have thir marks counted in the competition.
 For this gigantic meet, the largest ever attempted in the college world, four events have been selected: the running high jump, the running broad jump the one hundred yard dash and the bar vault. The scoring is within the basis of performance within cer- tain limits, these limits being as near as possible those of the average young man.
 The good athlete, by reaching all of the final marks will be able to score 12 poins for his team. The win ming team will be the one with the best average per man for the number competing.
 Because the men in the army will compete in uniform and the heavy service shoes, different standard of performance will be set for the men in khaki but the events and point sys- tenn will be the same. The evnts and marks for the meet of the Big Ten have not been announcd.
 The army has been able to reduce these competitions to matter of an hour or less for a company. A year ago in one meet, 1,600 men were test ed in the 22O yard dash and the finals tabulated within ten minutes of time.
 According to the records of the commission on training camp activi- ties, the 27th division, while in train ing at Camp Wadsworth, held the largest mass athletic meet. This divi- sion, whose recent return and review in New York was a dramatic incident of the war, assembled 25,236 men for the events. These men were from New York city, where athletic have been fostered from the first, and 21,764 made good marks against tests similar to those set for the collegiate fresh men. According to the experience of this division, the mark of 13 seconds is too fast for the one hundred yard dash, even for the average man in track shoes, as this division, running of course in uniform and army shoes,
The Cordova daily times., 1919-04-16

average 15 2-5 seconds for the dis tance.
 While the total number of men in the events this year will not reach the usual totals of the days of mobiliza- tion, more college men will take part in some form of athletics this spring than ever before, and it is the hope of the men who are working for bet ter physical development, that these meets will pave the way to the uni versal observance of some sort of physical exercise by the rank and file of the college men.
