TO REVISE PRESENT FIRE
PROTECTION STANDARDS

Chicago-(A. P.)-Important revi-
sions of present standards of fire pro-
lection to. keep steps with changes in
industrial progress will be submitted
to the delegates to the twenty
annual convention of the National Fire
Protection association who will as
semble here for a three day confer
ence.
Regulations adopted in former
years by the association, which here
tofore have been of interest only to
underwriters and valuable to them
in estimating hazards, are now be-
coming popular and in common use
as guide by municiple and state
bodies having jurisdiction over fire
protection and prevention, according
to a statement issued by officials of
the national association here.
The large increase in fire losses
during the last three years is making
the work of the association matter
of increasing public interest, and the
largest delegation ever to attend a
national meeting is expected as a re-
suit, the announcement says.

Many Records Broken.

| Three other records were broken
in the Interscholastic of last season.
Eckholm of Standpoint set up new
mark of 46 feet, II and "a inches
putting the twelve pound shot. Kliz-
er of Wallace made a new record
when he hurled the javelin 1853 feet
inches. Picket, of Standpoint, made
5 feet, 8 IL inches in the high jump,
shattering the former record
1t cannot be expected that new
marks will be set up with such
abandon in the meet this week end.
Few interscholastic meets offer such
combination of individual stars.
Still, in all probability the coming
meet will bring forth many brill
liant contender, and from all reports
good marks will be made in most of
the events.

dances will be held, and every op-

STATE TRACK men
COMING FOR MEET
THE ANNUAL INTERSCHOLASTIC
EVENT AT UNIVERSITY TO
HAVE 1OS ENTRIES

-
The Interscholastic track meet,
which will be held on MacLean Field
Friday and Saturday Of this week,
will feature approximately one humid
red and eight stars from the diff
erent districts Of the state, accord
ing to the plans of the high school
interscholastic committee. The fin
al sectional meets were run off dur
ing the last week end, but reports
concerning results have been slow
coming in, and the athletic office
will not have a complete schedule
of entries until Wednesday or Thurs
day.
Men taking first and second places
in the various events in the Caldwell,
Lewiston and Occur d'Alene meets,
men taking first places at the Koos-
kia meet, and athletes showing spec
ial individual ability In the Orofino
meet, will be eligible to enter. All
these districts have been heard
from, and it is certain that all eli
gible men will be entered for the
meet, although the identity of most
of the contestants is not as yet
known.
Preliminary Meets Held.
The ranking high school track
teams Of the state competed in the
preliminary meets held during the
past week end According to adj
vance reports coming in there are
many exceptional men entered from
the southern part of the state. Who
ever qualities from these sections
for the meet here will have shown
rare ability, and spectators will be
assured of an exceptional treat when |
the teams appear here in COMPETE

Little can be learned of the teams |
which fought for places in the Occur

ever, the north has turned out some

The southern section of the state
generally has the edge in the track
events, for the reason no doubt that

Best Event of Season.
In past years the Interscholastic
meet has ranked as one of the best
meets of each year held on MacLean
field Perhaps more interest is
