Wi 1 be Satisfactorily An
swered this Track Season
The following is the leading cditari.il
in the University of Washington Daily
.lacli 2?nd. ml is a fair ex linyfe
of what our northern neighbors are do
ing to promote intercoliegi: <;e amity arid
foster conference relations:
Iltiyzoard's Personally Conducted Meet
Who is Bill Hayward? Who is he
to call an inter-collegiate meet at Port
land. without the eon sen.* of all the in
stitutions in the conference? Who is
h t this meet will deter
mine the trad championship of the sea
son. irrespec.ive of the tri ugular a id
all-coast meets?
Mr. Hayward is entitled to ail the
prerogatives due a physical trainer; but
to no more. As arbiter of the athletic
destinies of the Northwest he is sad
indeed. In attempting to dictate just
how the trad- championship is to he de
cided, he has certainly undertaken nn
impossibility.
It would be foolish for Washington
to consider Mr. Hayward's little round
up in Portland this spring, hi the first
place, Washington’s track schedule is
overloaded already; in the second pl.ee,
Idaho and Oregon will be met on the
track field at Eugene in another me :t,
and the addition of Whitman and Pull
man can have no advantage as neither
institution looms dangerously on the
track horizon; and in the third place
the meet is unofficial.
If Mr. Hayward assumes that he can
call together three or four institutions
of the coufernce, hold a meet, aitd there
by determine the conference track cham
pionship, he is mistaken.
Oregon’s athletic trainer has many!
wiles. One more meet on the Washing
I
ton schedule would please him mightily,
realizing as he does its already over-1
loaded condition ; but he will find that j
lie can neither entice nor drive the
M ashington athletes into the plan.
The only line far Washington to fol-J
low is to adhere to its original track j
schedule; let Mr. Hayward and his con :
ference meet alone; and finally trounce!
Oregon so convincingly in the trian
gular that there will be no more noise
left in the redoubtable Mr. Hayward. !
When the attention of Bill Hayward
was called to the above article this
morning, he said: “That piece was
written y someone who didn’t know
who was talking about; for had he
he t<u . the groublt to consult the min-1
utes ot the last conference he would ■
have discovered that the call for the
conference track meet is official. I can
not understand why they continue to rap
me. unless they hope to finally discredit
me. and gain by ousting me from North
west athletics. Such incorrect and child
ish attacks as this one, however, defeat
their own purpose. It is time they cut
out this kid talk.”
I he minutes of the last conference
show that a conference meet was de
eided upon for Portland, June 3rd. Bill
I lay ward was appointed chairman of the
committee on arrangements. The other
members were Zednick, of Washington,
and I.arsen. of Idaho. It was, however,
impossible to secure Multnomah Field
on that date, and May 27th was the
only one available. Hayward commit

NEW METHOD MAKES FAT
BAILEY RUN LIKE DEER
Mill Hayward, our j/zerlcss trainer,
with characteristic ingenuity, originat
ed a novel and effective system of instill
ing into bis charges the principles of
quick starting.' So far the plan has
worked admirably, and some of the
speed marvels who have been experi
encing difficulties about '‘freezing” at
the mark are improving wonderfully.
“Eat” Mailey, whom Mil lhas lately
‘-ecu putting through his paces in the
sprints, is the latest subject, or perhaps
it would be better to say victim, of the
new method. Yesterday F.d persisted
in “freezing at the scratch” in such a
way as to make Mill almost doubt his
usual infallible judgment, which had
picked him for a sprinter.
Finding that hi execrations were all
to no avail, Bill surreptitiously loaded
his starter's gun with a paper wad. “On
the mark,” said Bill as Ed ambled inA*
place. “Get set,” and Ed crouched for
the start. Bill aimed the gun square
at the sprinter’s ample posterior and
tired. Though the principles were ex
tremely reticent about being interviewed,
spectators say that the results were in
stantaneous and extraordinary. Ed
started as he had never started before,
and tore off a good fifty yards in rec
ord time before he trusted himself to
look around with as near to a peeved
expression as his infallible good nature
and excelleift disposition would ev»er
pjrm't.
There will be a meeting of the Sen
ior class next Monday at 4:1X1 P. M.
i in Villard Hall, for the purpose of
i electing a manager for the Senior Class
! Play. All Seniors are urgently request
ed to attend
