Webfooters’ Relay Teams Meet Assies First Races of Season Will Be Rim Off Today at 2:00 Oregon Has Strong Entries To Compete Against Beaver Squad By JOR riOXRY Tf (lie predictions of Bill Hay ward, Oregon track conch, are at all trust worthy, and they usually are, Jcc Standard I li<> \\ ebfootors liavo more than an even chance, t 0 defeat t h e Aggies in the re lay meet this a f t e r n o o n on 1 fay ward field at 2:00. Held up all season l>y rain and cold weath er, both Oregon and O. hi. ('. are, uncertain as to actual strengths of Ihoir ton ms. This is the first competitive work for each school, and from the results of relays the possibilities for the University of Washington relay carnival at Seattle next week will be judged. Shot Putters Doped to Win. The Webfooters hope to take (he majority of the relay races and to win the shot put. Hayward’s team is perhaps weakest in the four mile event through the loss of Hill and Heal, both experienced men. Hill injured his leg in preliminary train ing runs, and Beal has been handi capped by an attack of mumps. In the shot put relay, Hayward has developed a combination which will be difficult to defeat. Both Wetzel and Dickson have been mak ing heaves of around forty-five feet in practices and Ktadelmao and Stager have not been far behind. Under close competition, it is prob able that these men will do even better. Each man is allowed three throws in the shot put relay, his best heave counting. The team total is taken ns a basis for first place. Milo Eelay Team Fast With five fast MO-vard dash men to pick from, Hayward believes that his mile relay team will be a win ner. Joe Standard, veteran and letterman, is the keynote of the combination. Standard lias been closely pressed by rivals this year, and the competition has served to increase ids speed. Bn Verne I.V,ar son, who 1ms been on the relay team for two years, and Buben lioss, newly discovered as a sprinter, are running as second ami third men. lute This color—or ab sence of color — is , the proper tonal ap pearance for spring cloth.es — cords, linen k n i c kers, dresses, and all * w e aring apparel will be whiter if they are sent to the Phone 825 New Service Isundry The fourth man will be either Mc TCennon or McCarty. Two high hurdle lettermen give foundation to Bill’s assertion that the Webfootors will win the shuttle relay. Bill Crawford and Boye Mc Gee are the experienced men, and jthey are ably backed by Kelly, : I’rendergast, and Foster.

Primary Race Holds Interest ' Smith ami Hoover Possible Party Nominees WASHINGTON, April 20—(UP) —Tlio possibility .that Herbert Hoov er and Governor A1 Smith may meet a- the nominees of their parties in the November election was the chief subject of discnssion in Washington political circles today following the Massachusetts, I’eiinsylvania' and Ohio primaries. \ Elaborate claims on the nomina tions were being made by campaign managers, supporters, and friends of i both Hoover and Smith; and the contentions boro such weight of rea sonable expectations that they were accepted for serious discussion n'meng all the factions of both par ties. Hoover’s friends now say they have an excellent chance to carry | Indiana in the primary May 8 j against Senator James E. Watson, the natiVe son candidate. Smith’s friends report that the California primary next Tuesday will put an end to any doubt which may exist concerning their candi date. “If Smith carries California it’s all over but the shouting,” they are telling everyone around Washing ton. The fight there is between Smith and Senator Thomas .J. Walsh, of Montana, who is being backed by Smith’s iol(l opponent W. G. McAdoo, ir. McAdob’s home state. Senator Jas. Seed, of Missouri, is entered in the contest but the Sjjiith people claim the main battle is against Walsh. They reason that if Smith is able to beat Walsh, in McAdoo’s home territory, doubtful Democrats over the country will be so impressed by his vote getting powers that they will make no effort to oppose him seriously. Two weeks ago Indiana political observers saw no change for Hoover there. Xow they say he not only has a chane-e but a good one. They point -out that the Republicans of the neighboring states of Michigan, Ohio, and Kentucky, now have man ifested a- strong desire for Hoover. Illinois Republicans on the fourth side have overthrown the entrenched Republicans' machine. Charges of corruption are believed by Hoover followers to have demoralized tho old Republican Indiana 'organiza tion. * A.
