athletes from all parte of the state
will compete here Saturday In the
sixth annual Oregon state Interschol
aatlo track and Held meet. All 14 rec
ords, are In precarious positions, as
several of the meet marks have al
ready been bettered in early Beason
competition.
None of the marks made In the
Ilrst meet held In 1627 remain on
the records, as Bobble Wagner of
Helix ran the mile In 4 :32.3 last year
to erase the last of the 1027 marks.
Only two of the 1928 markB stand
Earl Conklln of Benson cleared 5
feet 104 Inches In the high Jump,
and the Grant High school quartet
ran the half-mile relay In 1 :33.
THREE MARKS LAST YEAH
Three new records were set last
year. In addition to Wagner's new
time In the mile. Fred Nowland of
La Grande ran the high hurdles in
16.9 seconds, and Warren DcMarls
lengthened his own javelin mark to
301 feet 614 inches. These two marks
ore also all-time Oregon high school
records.
Because of their performances In
the Vancouver relay meet and the
Union county meet in Eastern Ore
gon, respectively, Jefferson High of
Portland and La brande High are
expected to battle all the way for
the team championship which has
gone to Qront High school of Port

An altered lineup and a typical
pitching performance by Wild Bill
Hallahan has given the world cham
pion St. Louis Cardinals their first
victory In four games and snapped
the Chicago Cubs' winning streak at
seven In a row.
Gabby Street, slightly annoyed by
an outfit that had succeeciea in
winning only five games out of its
first fifteen, benched first baseman
Jim Bottomley yesterday, shifted
Jimmy Collins to that post and in
serted Ray Blades into the outfield. '
This lineup stopped the Cubs witn- .
out trouble, 7-1. but the credit per
haps rests chiefly on Hallahan s;
shoulders. "The wild one" passed j
ten men but allowed only three i
singles. Four double plays stopped
the Cubs every time Hallnhan's
generosity put them in a threaten
ing position. George Watkins led a
12-htt attack on Guy Bush, hitting
a home run, double and single.
Braves Back at Top
Tho Cubs detent automatically
sent the idle Boston Braves into first
place.
In the only other National league
struggle of the day. the Cincinnati
Reds came from behind to down
Pittsburgh, 7-5, after the Pirates had
gained a 5-0 lead.
The Washington Senators gained
the American league lead by beating
tho New York Yankees, 4-3, as Lloyd
Brown outpitched Charley Ruffing.
Brown witnessed the finish of the
game from the clubhouse, Mnrbcrry
going in with one out in the ninth
after tho Yankees hod put two men
oh base. Triples by Manush and i
Myer accounted for three Washing- j
ton runs In the first two innings. j
' Wes Ferrell wonjiio fifth game in J
a row as Cleveland pounded out an ;
11-1 victory over the Chicago White j
Sox. It was fairly close until the j
eighth when Cleveland scored seven l
runs off Poser and McKnin.
The. much-traveled right handor, ;
Irving Hadley, made his first stnrt
for the St. Louis Browns, struck out
11 men and beat the Detroit Tigers,
4-3.
