The goat would stand its ground
and paw the snow a little before
charging, or it would deliberately
commit suicide by leaping off into
space, sometimes with the lariat
looped around its horns and once
with man tangled in the lines.
BY miraculous combination of
mountaineering and cowboy tao
tics, Oscar and his men came down
off the winter peaks with l8 live
mountain goats. They had to
lower the trussed-up animals
down over steep drop-offs by
ropes attached to their short
black horns.
I've watched Oscar operate along
the slippery walls of the south
eastern fjords. and he gets no
argument from me when he says
that goats prefer sleeper, rocker
cliff sides than the mountain sheep,
and that when they both occupy
the same range the goat is boss.
And riskier hunting? A neophyte
who shlnnies up precipitous slopes
with Oscar in quest of a chin
whiskered old billy usually comes
back with torn clothes. broken
fngernails, eyebrows rubbed off,
and mad stare that leaves only
after Oscar has treated him with
several soothing libations of hot
rum and butter.

PHILADELPHIA, April 16.-R
Eastern quarters ganged up on
Illinois today and kept the big nine
cinder kings from completely
dominating the 53rd Annual Penn
relays but the real villain in the
plot was a freshman from New
York University who shed his
army khaki only ten weeks ago.
Although they duplicated their
feat of a year ago by winning three
of the team championships, the
Illini bid for an unprl- edented
q%uintuple victory was thoroughly
squelched before an estimated
tarong of 1000 at sun-drenched
Franklin Field.
For the second straight day, it
was Reggie Pearman, gangling N.
Y. U. freshman who tossed the
monkey wrench into the works by
slipping past the Orange and
Black unner from the Western
conference when they least expect
ed it.
Having added the 8s0-yard re-
lay title to their 440-yard and dis
lance medley championships of
yesterday, the Illini passed up the
four-mile event and shot for the
two-mile crown, only to finish in
third place behind Fordham and
Manhattan.
Illinois still had a chance to be-
come the third school in the his
tory of the meet to take four
titles when the one-mile affair got
under way. But it simply wasn't
in the cards.

dent, reported last night.
The meeting will be in the Com

club are also invited to attend.
Meanwhile at least two courts at
Robert Strange park yesterday
were thronged with net enthusiasts
who found the clay courts in good
condition. Other asphalt courts
were reported crowded also, as
Wilmington players are beginning
to swing back into the practice of
playing more tennis. A practice
that once caused Wilmington to
bear the name the Tennis City"
In action on the two clay courts
yesterday were: M. V. Barnhill,
Horace Emerson, Gene F'onville,
Clark Adams, Robert City, Dick
Hewlett, the Rev. MI. Mortimer
Glover, and the Rev. Mr., Walter
Freed.
Among the fair sex present were:
Mary Johnson, Mary Bland, Mary
Alice Rose, Verna Farmer, Martha
Pence, Elizabeth Williamson and
Margaret Gerack.
From the ranks of these, and
several other players, Watts will
hope to find the performers who
will represent Wilmington in ECTA
matches. Watts asked any tennis
players who would like to join the
club between now and next Friday
to call him at 6112, or contact Les
lie Boney at 4788.
