who have brains enough to unoer-

they have him playing his head on.

Griff is for victories was afforded yes

Birthright Takes Two Events in
Interfraternity Meet and His
Running Wins Relay.

who used to do stellar work for the
Blue and White in the dashes, recent
ly performed in great form at the
Iowa State Callege in an interfra-
ternity meet. Here is what the Ames
paper said of Birthright after the
races:
More than five hundred men were
entered and some fast time was made.
Kimier of the Phi Pals took individual
honors with thirteen points. winning
the shotput and half mile. and taking
the meet, however, was Birthright, the
diminutive Beta runner from Wash
ington, d. c.. who took the 100-yard
and 220-yard daShes with ease, and
won the half-mile relay for his team
by overcoming a ten-yard lead and
finishing several yards ahead of the
field. His time in the hundred was
0:10 1-5 and in the 220-yard 0:23 1-5,
and he should fornfoa valuable addi-
ton to Ned Merriam's track squad
next year to fill the gap left by the
graduation of Capt Lodwick."
After he left Central, Birthright en-
listed in the Marine Corps and went
to France in 1918 with the 18th Regi-
ment under Brig. Gen. Smedly Butler.
Birthright's stay in the Army does not
seem to have impaired his running
qualities, and his many friends here
will be glad to know that he has
taken up track work again and with
such success.
