Seldom in the! history of the national unlor indoor' athletic chamlonpships has there ; been such a wealth of runners, leap-1 ers and weight hurlers of high grade as are entered for the annual event to be pulled off in the Twenty-second Regiment Armory . here tomorrow night. Cities as widely seperated as Roston, Chicago and New Orleans, with many of the Intervening points have sent their best performers to compete for honors. Colleges and clubs alike will be well represented. Among the big colleges that will take part are Yale. Harvard. Cornell and Pennsylvania. The list of events Includes the 60 yards,' 220-yards, 600-yards.; 100C yards and two mile runs, one in'l (V. . it.'.is M;.h hurdle race, t standing htfjh limp, standing brom! jump, running rich Jump anil pnttina the 12 pound shot. In view of the many star perform ers included among the entries it seems almost certain that some of the marks in the eleven events will be displaced by better figures before the evening's program Is concluded. The battle is being waged between Willard Saulsbury, Democratic nat ional committeeman, and politicians who are strongly opposed to the se lection of Saulsbury for the senator ship. Friends of Saulsbury argue that he is entitled to the senatorship because he was one of the original Wilson boomers in- Deleware. They also point out the fact that he has been spending his money for years to elect his supporters to the legislature. Cnnrd of Uer Complaint.

Members of the Minnesota legislature are al ready putting In an appearance in anticipation of the opening of the bi ennial session the first of the week. The general sentiment expressed by those already on the ground Is that the session will be marked by the transaction of much Important bual? ness. One of the first items of busi ness will be the selection of a Unit ed States senator, but this will be a perfunctory task for the law makers, as the perferentlal vote at the November election assures of the re-election of Senator Knute Nelaot Ik pvf i .Jr. it, a, - II-', i' -J'i.Y.t.
