STANFORD HAS
FOURTEEN MEN
WHO QUALIFIED
Cardinals Almost Sure
to Bring /. c. 4-A Title
To Coast.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, May 2S.-Thc
problem besettnig athletes of 28
other colleges today concerned the
ways and means Of preventing the
track and field stars of Stanford
from running away with the inter
collegiate meet this afternoon.
Tho problem appeared without
solution.
By qualifying IA potential point
getters in yesterdays trials, the
Cardinal team looked at least 10
points better than any other, with
its most important competition COM
ing from the University of Southern
California, defending champion.
Southern California qualified 10
men and Dartmouth and Penn State
nine each, with the former likely
to pile up more points than any
other team from this part of the
country. Harvard, Princeton, Cali
fornia, Michigan State, Pittsburgh,
Cornell. Georgetown, Syracuse, NJ.
!. T., Brown, Yale, Boston College,
Bowdoin, Colgate, Holy Cross and
Maine all qualified.
Several records probably will be
established today. Tho six men
qualifying for the pole vault as
cended to less than a fraction of an
inch below 13 feet. All of the
broad Jumpers made more than "a
feet, aud the high jumpers cleared
six feet, one quarter inch.
The quarter mile heats furnished
the greatest upset of the first day
of the meet. Jimmy Burgess of
Georgetown, runner up of last year,
failed to qualify, as did Emerson
Spencer of Stanford.
Charley Borah, L. S. G., and Al
Miller of Harvard, were looked up,
on to supply most Of the competi
tion in the sprints with Monty
Wells of Dartmouth meeting with
Clarence West and Ross Nichols in
the hurdles.

teresting as the O'Dell-Dc Soto
mixup.
This bout, the final, will bring to-
gcther Bobbie Herman of Los An
gelcs and frankie Jerome of San
Diego. These boys tip the beam at
l24 pounds and both are speedy and
free swingers.
Jerome fights along the lines cx-
hibited here early this year by Ben
ny "Kid' Carter. He docsn' t do
any unnecessary shifting about the
ring, confining his ducking to sway.
ing his body only few inches,
enough to get away from a blow and
is ready ut all times to land. He
usually starts from his corner with
both hands before him and is still
going in the direction of his oppon-
ent when the round ends.
Against Bobbic Herman, however,
jerome is apt to do some backing
away. Not from desire but neccs-
sitv. Herman is fast and can run
rings around most of the boys in
his class and carries wicked punch
in both his mitts. 1t should be a
battle well worth watching.
Fans, however, are waiting anx-
iously for the other portion of the
main event. This battle between
De Soto and o Dell needs little men
ton. The two boys gave one of the
finest exhibitions along the lines
fans like best that has been witness
ed in the valley in some time last
week. Both hit the canvas during
the encounter, o Dell who won be
ing floored twice by De Soto. 1t
was a battle throughout the full six
rounds. With 10 rounds to go a
more decisive decision one way or
the other should be produced.
The card will open with two four
