Wynn Wright will be the only hurdler representing the yellow and green. Wynn has improved fast the last two weeks and is getting his old shape back that he had in the Southern California circles. With a bit of luck and fast skirting of the sticks, Wynn is liable to give the top hurdlers of the league from Washington a big surprise. Salvation boy Frank Dienz is packing his pogo stick up to the meet as our pole vaulter. Frank has been practicing strenuously the last two days trying to get higher in the air. Frank was informed that he could participate in meets just a few days ago, journeyed over to OSC, won the pole vault there, and hopes to bring home a place for Oregon this week. Bill Kydd, Lou Robinson, and Dick Shelton, the heaving trio, are set to knock over all opposition in the javelin contest. Kydd has the best toss of the spear in the con ference, and Robinson and Shelton are probable placers in the meet. Only OSC’s Martinson has a better throw than Robinson, and Wash ington State’s Culley has just beaten Shelton’s tosses. Taking care of the high jump and the broad jump are bounding Bill Beifuss and Tom Garrity. Beifuss has the best hop credited to him in the conference with a 6 foot 5 inch leap. WSC’s Vince Hansen is supposed to have hit the same height, but the dope from the Cougars hasn’t been very authentic, toss their white hope out the window. Garrity has been rolling over the bar in the 6 foot vicinity all year and is counted on to pick up a place. The track and field men leave for Seattle early Friday morning and are set for their trip to the northern city. The 13-man squad, small as it is, might throw a monkey wrench into the two top favorites Washington and Oregon State’s title contention hopes. Dr. Cressman to Speak Dr. L .S.
