SCHOLASTIC MEET
MARKS IN DANGER
Tech Heavy Choice to Win
Tomorr0W-FieId Events

w YITH a view to avoiding

w fair, competition in
the field events in the
annual public high school cham
pionShip track meet tomorrow
afternoon in Central High School
Stadium will start not later than
3 o'clock and every effort will be
made to get it under way before
that time.
University director of athletics and
head foot ball coach and track Off
cial, will serve as referee of the meet
DR.. Frank w. Ballou, superintendent
of schools, will be honorary referee
Joe Mari, will be starter with Earl
Fuller, clerk Of the course. Kip Ed
wards will be chief judge of the field
events
Tech, which did not win a high
school meet from the time 1t was
started in 1894 until 1924, but since
has captured II six times, is a top
heavy favorite to score its seventh
victory tomorrow. The margin of
the triumph of the gray-clad athletes
seems to be the only question.
Following the hanging up Of its first
win in 1924. after Central had en-
joyed virtual monopoly of the meet
all those preceding years, the Tech
boys went on to triumph in 1925, '26,
'27 and %. In 1929 Eastern was VIC
toriOuS for the first time in the history
of the meet. Eastern again won in
1890 and 81. but Central triumphed
in 1892 for the first time since 1923.
Then Tech squeezed through to VIC
tory last season.

For time the Kenwood folks, who
deserve no end of credit for staging
Washington's only real g-time pro-

they could hold the affair in May and
get a thoroughly representative field.
but conflict of dates knocked that idea

as the Pinehurst affair. with its prize
money of around 81 500.
The upshot of the whole matter is
that Kenwood probably will hold its
tourney in mid-November and it is
about time the weather man relented

TT MAY not be generally known
that if EndeavGlr is not finally
brought up to the desired mark.
her cwner, T. o. M. Sopwith. is priv
ileged to withdraw her and substi-
tute another sloOp.
This arrangement. entirely new to
modern Americas cup racing. is the
result Of a concession granted by the
New York Yacht Club. the defending
organization, to the challenging club,
the Royal Yacht Squadron.
The only stipulation is that this
change be made so DAYS before the
date of the first race of the series off
Newport, September l6. This means
that if, by the middle of July. those
in charge of Endeavour are not satis-
ned with her, they may, if they wish,
enter another Sloop-VelSheda prob
ably-ln her place.
1t is interesting to note that this
novel condition was not made at the
request of the Royal Yacht Squadron.
but was proffered by the Americas
Cup Committee of the New York
Yacht Club in its desire to create
conditions as nearly equal as possible
for both challenger and defender.
Is PraiSewOrthy Gesture
IT is new and praiseworthy mani
festation of the modern spirit
which informs international sport
and is especially notably in an event
such as the cup series, which have
been marked in the past by occasional
outbreaks of bitter feeling and always
by meticulous consideration of every
advantage which the rival parties
might be able to Wangle out of their
agreement. 1t is required of the de-
Tending club merely that its defender
be named week before the date of
the first race. This always has been
the rule in the past and, while it may
strike the man in the street as giving
the home club an advantage, the
Royal Yacht Squadron did not ques-
tion it.
OF course. if Endeavour, or VEL
sheda, should take the cup back to
England the case of challenger and
defender would be reversed. The
British could hold back the name of
their defender until a week before the
race, while conditions governing the
final naming of the American chal-
lenger would be subject to the gener-
osity of the Royal Yacht Squadron.
The real handicap is the imposed
necessity of the challenger crossing
the Atlantic under sail. She tunes up
in English waters, is then dismantled
to jury rig and sets forth for these
shores. Then she must be re-rigged
and tuned up as well as may be in
the limited time remaining What
SopWith should do would be to sail his
sloop to this country in the middle of
June. Arriving here in the middle of
July. he then would have eight weeks
Of preparation. In this way Endeav-
our would have a much better chance
to win the cup than she possibly can
have under existing conditions.
