C. A. A. A. A. cup back to the Pacific
 Time and again, since the first in tercollegiate meet was held back in 1876, the West has sent on California and Leland Stanford, but they have never been able to break into the se- feet circle of championship winners. Harvard has taken B meets, ! ale, Cornell and Pennsylvania, nine each, Columbia three, Princeton two, and Michigan one But now California has track team, one that has not only demonstrated it's superiority on the coast, but a team that SWanped Michigan, o8 to A, after the Wolver- ines had sent Jack Moakley's Cornell fliers down to 50 1-2 to 35 I-2 de- feat This all happened in 1921.
 It is on a well-balanced machine that the West banks The Califor- mia athletes have an array of times and distances good enough to win any dual meet and likely to count enough points for the championship
 It was Bob" Hutchinson of Califor- mia who pushed Charley Paddock to new worlds record of 20 4-5 sec onds in the 22O-yard dash, and tie for the worlds record of 9 3-5 seconds in the century dash out on the Berkc- ley Oval last month,. when Calltorn1a submerged Paddock's University of Southern California track team with Io5 to 26 score.
 Hutchinson has done 9 As. seconds consistently in the 1oo-yard dash, and he is due to stage a thrilling battle with Allan Woodring, the Syracuse phenom, who is also credited with | tying the worlds record. This pair will meet on the fastest track in the world within two weeks, and the thrill of lifetime will be realized. Dennis Enright and Mike" Danchy, the liar yard experts ,are getting the Stadium track up to perfection, specially for this great race. Of course, Hutchi sons arch-rival from Leland Stan ford, kirksey, will also come on for the big battle.
 "Oxy' Hendrixon, who was only second behind Meredith's record in winning the intercollegiate quarter mile last year is still with the Cali fornia team, with the hopes of tying over the same course where Ted" clocked i'll five years ago, Earl Eby of Pennsylvania Carl John of Cor nell, Jake" Driscol of Boston College and Frank Shea of Pittsburg will bat i tie against him once again, so the Blue and Gold gallant will have good competition to push him to a record
 Then there is "Pesky" Sprott, cap tain of the California fiers, signed up for the half mile. Recently he was timed in I minute 50 seconds in the half mile and 4 minutes 20 2-5 seconds in the mile at Berkeley. Eby of Penn sylvania and "Tommy' Campbell of Yale will make him step in the 1880" while Larry Brown of Penn, Bob Crawford of Lafayette and "Denny" O'Connell of Harvard are some of the cracks already y entered in the mile.
 Besides Sprott, Carl Majors and Brick" Miller were California repre- sentatives on the American Olympic team. The former is great football player as wei las track athlete. He can hurl the shot 42 feet I-2 inches, and throw the javelin I82 feet , inch cs But the javelin will not count for California this year because the event will not be written into the books until next season.
