GAMES WITH VARSITY

Ball Team
RAINMAKER TAKES REST
Wet May Postpone Few Contests
This Week; Nightly Round
Scheduled With Leaguers
Playing their first game of the
season, Oregon’s baseball nine met
defeat at the hands of the Moose
Jaw tosers in a fairly fast exhibition
Saturday afternoon. Jupe Pluvius
kindly consented to postpone his
downpour long enough for the teams
to get together for ohe game, al
though the outlook is far from rosy
for the indications of another game
soon. The grounds were in poor
shape Saturday but Coach Hunting
ton believes in getting the practice
when and where he can. Although
the Canadians will be here for the
remainder of the week, nothing defi
nite can be given out as to how
many games will be played.
Both . Nines Need Practice
The game Saturday gave Coach
Huntington a fair idea of what tlie
team needed in the way of getting
into shape. Both nines showed the
result of lack of practice and were
slow in getting into action, which
will mean some stiff workouts on
the diamond when the weather does
take a turn for the better. Oregon
has an excellent team on offensive
work and there was but one strike
out in the Saturday’s game. This
is gratifying to Coach Huntington,
for a good hitting club will mean
a great deal in the conference this
season. There is still a good two
weeks before the opening of the con
ference schedule and this will mean
that a great deal of the team work
polish can yet be brought into play.
The work of the squad in Satur
day’s game shows them to be of bet

DAN ELY, FAMOUS
ATHLETE, HOLDER OF
WORLDS RECORD, DIES
Made Fastest Time in 100 Yard
And 220, Trained Under
Bill Hayward
SET 2 MARKS SAME DAY
Performances at Olympic Games Not
Up to His Work in Meets
of Northwest
Dan Kelly, one of the noted ath
letes of the United States, for the
past 14 years holder of the world’s
record in the 10 yd, dash, and for
mer University of Oregon track man
died last Thursday in Fernie, British
Columbia. Dan Kelly was develop
ed and trained by Bill Hayward.
Not only was Kelly a world’s re
cord holder in the 100, but he also
held lesser records in several other
events. Kelly's record in the 100,
9.3-5, was made at Spokane in 1907.
The record was made under ideal
conditions, the track was in perfect
shape. Bill Hayward is of the opin
ion that a record made under such
wonderful conditions will stand for
some time. On this same day Kelly
tied the world's record in the 220,
running on a slightly curved track
in 21 1-5; established a new P. N. A.
record in the broad Jump, 23 feet 9%
Inches; jumped 5 feet 10 inches in
the high Jump; and finally, ran his
lap in the relay in 49.1.
Broad Jump Mark Set.
This was a P. N. A. meet, and in
those days the Oregon athletes ran
under the M. A. A. C. colors. Seat
tle, Victoria, and Spokane partici
pated in the gKthering.
In his first year at Oregon, Kelly
established the coast record in the
broad Jump in a dual meet against
O A. C. held in fiugene His final
leap was 24 feet 2 1-4 inches.
Kelly won the National A. A. U.
senior record in the broad jump at
Jamestown meet, in Norfolk Va. Bill
Hayward says that Kelliy was in bad
shape for this meet.
At the Olympic games in 1908, in
London, Kelly placed second in the
broad jump. His jump was 23 feet
4 inches, but Frank Irons of Chicago
defeated him in the final leap by
but a few inches.
In Scotland after the Olympic gam
es Kelly made 15,1 in the 120 yd.
high hurdles.
Early Experience in Baker
The first experience Kelly had was
In Baker high school. Baker, Ore
gon. He also attended Columbia
University, Portland. When he came
to Oregon Kelly ran the 100 in 10.2,
and Bill Hayward says he has never
seen Kelly run the 100 in 10 flat, for
the first time he ran this event in
Eugene he made 9.4.
Kelly never equaled his broad
jump of 24 feet 2 1-4 Inches made
in the dual meet with O. A. C. for
his jump at the Jamestown meet
was 23 ft. 11 inches, and in the
Olympic meet he made only 23 ft.
4 inches in the broad Jump.
He returned to Oregon in 1909,
and that spring won many races, but
never broke any records after this
time.
The parents of Dan Kelly are Mr.
and Mrs. D. M. Kelly of Baker,
Oregon.
