TRACK PROSPECTS
LOOKING BETTER
Intramural Meet and Varsity
TEy-Outs Show Some Good
New Material

Bobcat track prospects look much
brighter since the intramural meet
and varsity tryouts held last week, in
which some very promising material
was brought to light.
Distance men seem to be showing
up better every day. Kump, Babe,
and DObler have been doing we'll n
the long runs for some time but !ast
week a new man came to tie front.
This was Thayer, who wen both the
half and the mile events in the intra-
mural contests. Thayer has a power
full stride and fight that should make
him one of the best distance men in
school.
Hodgson, a letter man Of last year,
has the best time in the half mile to
date. Thompson, a 44O yard man Of
last year, is crOwding Hodgscn IN
the half, and is making good time in
the 44O. Wood, Yandell and Hatfield
are also good quarter mile prospects.
Liyers, Hatfield, Benton and Wylie,
are the strongest ~contenders so far
for the 100 and 22O yard events.
Gotham, a letter man of two years
ago who holds the state interscholas-
tic record for the high hurdles, is
doing better than ever this year and
is considered a sure winner Of that
event. He is also a fast man in the
low hurdles, and has strong cOmpe-
titiOn in Livers, Sales and Sullivan.
Yedlicka and Olson are the princi-
pal weight men this year. They are
acquiring better form and are max
ing more distance every day. Livers,
Yerian and Neil are making 5 feet,
8 inches in the high jump in prac-
ltice, while Benton, Livers and Wylie
are broad jumping over q feet.
Coach Romney expects to have a
good track team whipped into shane
by the time Of the state track meet,
and the college should have little dif-
ficulty in winning tkc meet handiIy
next Tuesday.

Seniors Wear
Caps and Gowns
In Assembly Friday, In Accor-
dance With Old Tradition
of Montana State

The Glass of 20 put on their caps
and gowns, and came to assembly in
a body last Friday, acknowledging
their superiority and dignity. The
rest of the student body acknowledge
ed it also as they stood while the
Seniors marched in a double line to
their seats.
If there is anybody out of a JOB
this summer it won't be because
"jObs" weren't explained fully in as
sembly last Friday but rather as
Dean Norris said because there are
so many wealthy members among us
as the attendance seemed to show.
Well anyway we found out that
Teddy Cogswell likes the Park and
that all men wishing to try for rang
er jobs should apply to Flop Belshaw.
But Laura Asbury must have had
a lot of work to do in the Park and
she spoke the truth when she said a
savage was one who worked from six
A. M. to ten P. M. for his vacation.
Dean Norris thinks any job will
help an engineer and suggest that the
engineers who want to work this
summer to come to his office and fill
out application blanks. And Dean
Swingle told us that about twenty
five students Of science are employed
in work every SUMMER.

Decisively; Good Batting

The Bobcat baseball team got on a
batting spree Saturday at Living
stOn and stepped on the RailrOaders
to the tune of 21-5, in a game that
was featured by the heavy stick work
of Val Glynn.
The R~ailroaders started strong and
the first inning gave promise Of a
close game, but the opposing pitcher
weakeneS and the Bobcats began to
connect almost at will. Livingston
was obliged to use four pitchers,
while OFT Romney used all Of the II
mel on his varsity squad in the game,
and all seemed to be in the baseball
mood.
Glynn did the prize work of the
day when he boosted two into the
clouds for that many home runs, and
made a single and a double of each
Of his other times to bat. His pair
of homeTs were declared to be the
longest ones ever seen on the Living
ston diamond. Stone and Pitt who up
to date had been doing only mediocre
batting, landed out some nice hits.
The whole team seemed to be getting
their batting eye, and showed marked
improvement over their last game.
Hartwig, who pitched the first six
innings, displayed remarkable speed
and control and struck out twelve
men. Scoyil took the mound for the
last three innings and was equally
successful in that position.
Coach Romney expressed himself
as being very win satisfied with the
work Of the team. They are putting
their signals in use to good advan-
tage and in every way are develop
ing into a substantial ball team.
