Strong Field Ready
for &c. A. L. Games
at Butler Saturday
Secondary Schools to Decide
Track and Tennis Debate
in IrUiRgtOH.

The I. c. A. L. track and field and
tennis championships to be staged Satur-
day under the auspices OF Butler College
is regarded as one of the biggest athletic
events Of the year in Hoosier Collegiate
circles, as not only the cream of In
diana secondary colleges. but some Of
the best athletes in the Middle West win
participate.
At least ten Of the secondary colleges
In the State VIII be entered including
Earlham, Franklin, Rose Poly, State
Normal, Hanover, Oakland City College,
Evansville Manchester Goshen Muncie
The appearance here Of the touted Earl
ham track squad Will be the feature or
the occasion and the Quakers are con
coded to be the class of the meet. Some
Of the best athletes In the State are
on the ERrlham team this year and the
seasons record Of the team bears ample
testimony as to the strength OF the
squad as whole. Indiana, De PAW,
Cincinnati and Franklin have all fallen
easy victims to the Quakers on the cinder
paths. Franklin Is considered strong and
should place high in the final rating.
The down -Staters recently trimmed But
Ter In dual meet by two point margin
State Normal and Rose also will send
some real track stars, while not much
is known Of the strength Of the other
schools entered.
Butler hopes rest In the knowledge
that the strength of Coach Pages team
lies In two or three men Of great abil-
ity who might easily score enough points
to win a big meet, but would fau short
in a dual contest Tho mep who viii
represent Butler are Captain Draper,
middle distance; Doonttle, mile and two
mile; Mercer, pole vault ara Jumps;

A great deal of interest Is being
aroused here In the l. c. A. L. tennis
championship, to be decided the same
racquet wielders will be big favorites to
carry of the honors. The local tennisers
have won every match played this year,
and in most cases have had easy sailing.

of the best college tennis players In

NelU Ideas VIII Be
Tried Out at High
School Track Meet
Coach Thurber at Franklin
Works to Boost Class of
Event.
By HEzE CLARK.

When about 200 of the best high
school athletes from every part Of Indi-
ana gather at Franklin Saturday to
compete in the big track and field cham
pionship games, there will be several
innovation introduced that will make the
meet far more, interesting than any in
the history Of prep school athletics.
The state meet is held under the aus
ptceS OF Franklin College. Coach John
Thurber of Franklin reports the cinder
path at the Franklin athletic field In
perfect condition and there is every rea-
son to believe that records will be
broken. The winners Of first and Sec
ond places In the various events in the
ten sectional meets held last week have
qua flied to compete in the State Cham
pionship games.
The first innovation to be- introduced at
Franklin viii be In the 40 yard dash
and half mile run. For years 1t has
been an important problem to run these
races without fouls, as there were so
many athletes on the track they were
sure to crowd their opponents. 1t was
suggested that possibly the high schools
might copy the idea of the Big Ten Con-
ference colleges and run the heats of
these events Friday and the finals Satur-
day This Is all right for college men
who are older, but not so in the case of
high school boys, as these are such hard
races that 1t is unwise to run heats.
High school athletic authorities and
Coach John Thurber OF Franklin College
discussed this question and decided that
the wise way to solve It was to have
two 440-yard races and two SsO-yard
races. That is, the winners OF first
second and third in each OF these two
four yard races viii win points and the
same In the half mile. This puts more
Interest in the meet, as the spectators
wiz have chance to see two extra races
In the same meet The men will be as
signed to the first or second quarter Of
mile event by drawings made before
the meet starts, and the same win be
true In the half mile This makes ii fair
for all, prevents crowdlng on the track
and makes the events far more interest
ing.
The other innovation planned for the
Franklin meet IL In the pole-vault. It
is a safety first invention. During a
recent visit In the East Coach Thurber
Of Franklin saw newly designed pit
for the men to drop In when they pole
vaulted. The old stunt Of digging up
the dirt and mixing sand with It had
been used in all parts of the country
and injured ankles were the result But
the new stunt which has been installed
In the athletic field at Franklin College
Is to dig out a deep pit or hole. In this
is placed a set OF strong bed springs,
and on top Of these are two more sets
and then a door 10 built on top OF these.
On the top Of this floor is a liberal sup
ply OF sawdust When the poIe-vaulter
drops from more than eleven feet into the
pitt the springs give and sink and the
combination OF sawdust and springs
breaks bis hard fall and prevents in
jury. The change has met with the ap-
prevail Of athletic authorities who have
the high school championship game In
charge.

If he will uncover any of his favorite tac-
tics In working with his sparrtng part
ners.
He doesn't have to show everything.
After years Of experience in the ring, he
knows what he can do, and If I am
good guesser he will not lay a trump
card on the table until the gong rings
at Jersey City.
method Of training in private is the best
for him. / am told that he is Of nervous
temperament, despite the cool, caloulat-
Ing style he is said to use in the ring.

Carpenter had to put with the crowds

DISARMAMENT.

We do not share the opinion OF
some that the few who wish and argue
for complete and immediate disarma-
ment are standing in the way of ac-
complishing whatever measure of linn
itation may be deemed by the COM
ing conference TO be practicable. The
accomplishment Of anything at all
which would relieve the conference
from the charge of essential failure
depends upon a widespread and ac-
tive public opinion against the con-
tinuance Of present naval and military
burdens. and a good average OF mill
tant public opinion in favor of any
such change in established policies
can never exist without developing a
considerable percentage who are anxi-
GUS to go further than the great ma
jority yet deem feasible.
If there were no such manifestation
now, it would be a sure indication that
public opinion in general was virtual
ly dead to the importance OF the uues-
tion, and that any limitation which
the conference should agree upon
might be killed In the Senate with
impunity. The real danger to the sue
cess of President Hardings hopes for
the conference lies not in those who
want more than Is possible, but in
the still larger number who for var1-
GUS reasons do not want that much
