    M’GLURE LOSES RACE
Track Captain is Defeated by Speedy
Runner in Indoor Meet at San
Francisco.
Walter McClure, Oregon’s premier
miler, lost the 3,000 yard event to
Vlught of St. Mary’s College, at the
annual indoor meet of the Pacific
Amateur Athletic Club, held in San
Francisco last evening under the
auspices of the Olympic Athletic
Club. Oregon’s captain had entered
the meet held under the auspices of
the Olympic Club of San Francisco
because of the urgent solicitations of
the secretary of the club, but was in
very poor form to meet the speedy
runner from farther south.
McClure has been doing light train
ing over the cross country course
during the winter, but had not anti
cipated entering any meets so early
in the season. It was evident early
in the race that he could not expect
to win from Vlught, who built up a
large lead and finished in good style.
The time for the event was 7 min.
58 2-5 seconds, and the finish of the
race found McClure 100 yards behind
the winner.
