javelin more than 200 feet, several
put the shot above As feet, the low
hurdles are being run close to "a

The distance events, mile and two
miles. are the ones in which Northern
athletes would be far better than the
Southern. and the pole vault is an
other event in which the men from
north of the Mason-Dixon line would
transcend those from below it. In
the broad Jump and 440-yard dash
the South would have the advantage.

Everett Stars at virginia.

MYTH the late start college teams
w got because of the continued
cold Spring, the intercolle-
giate Spring schedules are going to
be finished almost before they have
begun, seemingly. Another month
will about mark the wind-up in al
most every sport, and in the majority
of sports limited number of games
are being played This is likely to
cause the games to seem few and far
between, and generally lessen in
terest in competition.
Grover Everett, former Eastern
High School track star, is making a
great record at the University of Vir-
ginia. In Saturdays meet between
Virginia and Virginia Military Insti-
tute. Everett won three events all with
excellent performances. despite the
fact he seems not to have been
pushed in any one of the three. In
the high hurdles he broke the tape in
1873 seconds in the 220-yard low
hurdles he did PAT seconds, and in
the broad jump he leaped far in front
of every other competitor with % feet
3 inches. Everett was good at East
ern, hut has improved considerably
since going to Virginia, and right now
he is about the most valuable man
Virginia has.

Some Interesting Rivalry.

VYIHEN Virginia and Maryland
" meet April 81 in dual meet,
the races between Everett
and Slye of Maryland, the latter hav-
ing been Everett'S teammate at East
ern, and the competition between Ev-
erett and Beers. who entered Mary
land from Western, should be well
worth watching. AS matter Of fact,
there is not likely to be much better
competition in these three events any
where in the South. Slye has done
better this Spring than Everetts time
in the low hurdles Saturday, but that
PAT by Everett is not as good as EV-
erett can do. The marks of the two
men in the high hurdles are exactly
the same, although Everett was not
pushed last week. Both Everett and
Beers do little over % feet in the
broad jump.
This chap Little of William and
Mary seems to be something of track
team in himself. He throws the
javelin nearly 200 feet, is intercol-
legiate broad-jump champion with a
mark of more than "a feet and Sat-
urday against Navy ran the 100 yards
IN 80 seconds and the 220 yards in
224 seconds. He won three of these
four events in the meet with Navy
and got second in the other. The
event in which he was second the
1avelin, was won with much shorter
throw than Little has been making.
Against North Carolina Little threw
the spear 1876 feet. but only got sec
ond at Navy when he failed to get
it as far as 1876 feet, with which Ba-
kutis of Navy won. Apparently the
javelin is an instrument with which
one day an athlete may be good and
the next not so good.
