Track and Field Athletics.

The coming years are going to
bring us such a wide and deep in
terest in athletics that the future
looks as if it almost might be called
the age of athletics.
Base ball, foot ball, basket ball,
tennis, golf, wrestling, boxing, swim
ming, skating, rowing-in fact all
forms of true athletic endeavor-
will have a greater and more en-
thusiastic following than ever be-
fore; but it is probable that the va
rious track and field events will
make the greatest strides in public
interest.
Although lacking the lure OF the
team games, track has several tre-
mendous factors in its favor. Each
event is mans final refinement of
one particular human effort. When
you hear that that chap Jones is the
fastest man or the best jumper in
the world, you mean that he can
run a dash faster or jump higher or
farther than any one else.
Compete with Champions.
Down through the ages man has
competed with his fellow men in
the high jump, in the dash, in the
shot put or stone put, and in the
runs. Earliest history records this
fact. In the days of the ancient
Greeks, athletic games were the
chief features of great athletic festi-
walls. Our modern American interest

in track and field events came to US
through the Anglo-Saxon side Of
our European forebears.
Through the use of the split-sec-
ond watch and the steel tape, along
with universally accepted STAN
dardization of events, any man can
find out positively how he ranks. To
a great extent he can rank him
self. Every chap who competes in
track and field today. no matter
where it may be, is competing
against the best athletes our modern
world has produced. The present
day athlete who runs the 100 in 10 is
seconds or the quarter in 81 sec
onds unconsciously is running
against Wefer 93-5 seconds for the
100 and Maxey Longs 49 seconds
TO- the quarter.
Olympiads Influence.
The Olympic games, the great
modern revival of the famous games
Of ancient Greece, because of their
international scope, will become a
tremendous influence in stimulating
universal interest in track and field
as well as in many other athletic
sports.
Other sports may lose favor in
one way or another, but track and
field are elemental in nature and an
cient in origin and appeal. Interest
in them will remain keen until that
time of which some dyspeptic scien-
tist has prophesied when our arms
and legs shall have atrophied.

Ban On Boys Is Lifted; May
Watch Girls Floor Games

Central High school was agog
yesterday with the news that Miss
Jessie Towne, dean of girls, has
lifted the historic ban against boy
students witnessing basket ball
games between bloomer-c1ad girl
schoolmates. ..
This afternoon, it is announced,
boys will be admitted to the girls
gym, for the first time in the history
of the school, to cheer from the
sidelines while two girl teams battle
for floor honors. The senior girls
sextette, led by Margaret Wahlmer,
veteran" Of two seasons, will
clash with the junior squad, cap
tanned by Eleanor Hamilton, school
champion and al-round girl athlete.
A rumor that hair-pulling has
been strictly barred from this par
ticular contest indicates that ex-
citement may not reach the height
attained in some games, heretofore
played behind closed doors, but the
report is not likely to cut down the
attendance of boy rooters, it is
stated. They'll have to stand, too.

Want new GOLF
COURSE IN CITY
Final Action to Be Taken Next
Wednesday Night; Stock
Company Proposed; 0p-
tion Obtained.

Realizing that the memberships of
a number of the Omaha golf and
country clubs are already crowded,
a number of men held meeting at
the Athletic club Wednesday night
for the purpose of organizing a new
golf club in this city.
Final action will be taken at
another meeting to be held at the
Athletic club next Wednesday eve
ming.
Among those present at the meet
ing last evening who urged the or
ganization of new golf club were:
John w. Gamble, A. c. Scott, John
w. Welch, ]. Z. Davidson, w. B.
Cheek, George E. Mickle, J. E. Al
Ian, F. f. Hovey, Robert L. Trimblc
and Arthur Thomas.
1t is the purpose to form a stock
company to organize the new club
which would have an 18-hole golf
course, tennis courts and modern
club house. An option on club prop
erty in the city has already been OBJ
tanned and It is not improbable this
option will be taken up and the new
club established there.

There's no joy in the
! glad season to
those who can
hardly breathe

Just as the happy spring
sime is about to bud forth
with all its joyful message Of
natures wonderful changes,
here comes a discordant note
10 those afflicted with Ca
tarrh, for just at this season,
while the system is under
going a thorough renovation,
any physical infirmity be-
comes more aggravated and
pronounced.
Hence those who are VIC
Tins of Catarrh-that most
troublesome and tenacious of
disorders-find that with the
approach of spring there is a
decided tendency for the air
passages to clog up, the
throat and nostrils become
sore and inflamed so that
their breathing apparatus
operates only with the great
est pain and difficulty.

locally applied treatment?
Take your own case, for in

faithfully tried all of the local

Spring is the great house.
cleaning season, the time
when nature throws off all
impurities and takes ON new
life and fresh vigor and
strength and vitality.

Therefore, this is the best
season of the entire year to
get real rational results from
the intelligent method Of
treating Catarrh, because the
right treatment co-operates
with nature in her rebuilding
and eliminating efforts that
are now in full operation.
Catarrh, as any victim of
this disease will readily agree,
is a great deal more than a
local irritation and disar-
rangement of the breathing
apparatus. If the disease
were nothing more than this,
then the usual methods of To-
cal treatment would give
some definite results. But

accept major league berth offered
to him. He has a prosperous busi-

son, baked long and strenuously on
the terms offered him. He may not
be with the club next season.
