Aside from reducing the number of competitor, the withdrawal of the Portland Grammar School League from the meet will In no way affect the contests. The same prixra a offered before are now offered, and prepara tions to make the meet a huge sue res, have been under way for some time. Handsome sliver medals are of fered for first and second prises In each event, while for the Individual winner a silver trophy cup will be th prize, and to the school getting th largest number of points a banner will be given. Events Number Klglit. There will be eight events. Including the running broad Jump and running high Jump. In each event each achool will be allowed three men. Previously It was the Intention to limit each school to one entry to each event. The later plan. It Is thought, will create more Interest among the lads who are already much enthused over the Indoor meet. The grammar-grade boys have never performed In an Indoor meet, although they have contested In outdoor meets once or twice. Next Saturday's meet is an open event for all grammar grade , schools. Notwithstanding; the withdrawal of the Public School League the meet will remain open for indi vidual Institutions. Among those schools which ara ex pected to send team to Columbia's coliseum next Saturday are Portland Academy. Hill Military Academy, Christian Brothers' Business College, St. Lawrenre Academy. St. Andrew's Academy. Columbia University and several other private and parochial schools of the city. Krents to Be Held. The events to be held are the fol lowing: 50-yard dash, open; 60-yard dash, for boys under IS; 60-yard low hurdle. 220-yard daeh. running broad Jump, running high Jump, half-mile run and one-third mile relay. Each relay team will consist of four men, and each will run once around the track. The meet will begin promptly at 2 o'clock. Much interest Is being shown In the open indoor track and field meet to be held at Colubla University the Satur day following. At that event an open and Interacholastlc meet will be held simultaneously.

It Is thought tha Interscholsatlc or preparatory schools division entry list will be even larger. Advices have already come from Goldendale, Wash.; Eugene. Albany, Newherg and other Oregon schools that men will be sent to Portland. Furthermore, all the schools tn the Portland Interscholas tlc League will be represented by full teams, bringing an entry list approxi mately 200 strong.

HIGHWAY TO 6E MARKED &EATTIE AUTO CLUB DECIDES TO SPEXD $500. Work to Extend From Canadian. IAnn to Columbia Kiver Port land to Be Asked to Aid Plan. Many matters of Interest were dis posed of at the annual meeting of the Automobile Club of Seattle last Thurs day evening, but undoubtedly the thing that will attract the most attention was the unanimous decision of the club to spend not to exceed the sum of $500 to mark the Pacific highway from the Canadian boundary to the Columbia River through the State of Washing ton. This work will be carried out under the direction of the good roads committee of the club, of which Nor man Abrame is chairman. In view of the fact that Mr. Abrams has Just returned from a SOOO-mlle tour of Southern California, he is espe cially fitted to carry out this work and utilise Ideaa that he has seen In marking roads In California, where the Automobile Club of Southern Callfor- yiJ Runabout f wmmmjmmmmmBwm -5r SL?r;5Sa .s.fta.iviV(,& r Will take you there and bring you back with these advantages: Smallest Cost Outlay Smallest Possible Gasoline Consumption Smallest Possible Tire Expense Smallest Possible Car Upkeep These advantages due to the Light, Strong and , Simple Construction of The Metz which same simple construction makes it possi- ble to sell this car. at the low price of $525.00 If you just want a Runabout to run about in This Is It If You Want a Big, Complicated, Massive Car to Buy Tires and Gasoline for, Dont Buy lhis One Vehicles Implements an E. Second and E. Morrison nla has perhaps done this work as ef fectively as it has been done in any other part of the United States. A standard design was decided upon that might be selected by the good roads committee and this will be made uniform throughout the state. The only reading matter that the sign will carry Will be the words. "Pacific High way" and the Seattle club emblem. The club has not yet decided whether the signs will be entirely of wood or upon a 4x4 post wun an iron signboard. This latter scheme is used successfully, says Mr. Abrams. in Southern California and means mat when the guldeposts are once put up they withstand an exceptional amount of abuse that such public property usually receives. An effort will be made to interest the County Commissioners In the various counties through which the Pacific highway will pass to co-operate with the club in carrying ont this work and also in maintaining these signs after they are once up. It Is the expectation of the committee to have this work completed by June 1, 1911. There is little doubt but that the British Co lumbia officials will take up the work of marking the Pacific highway on nto Vancouver and an effort will be made to have the Portland Automobile Club continue this sign work through Oregon.

The Tire Book Tells Howto Double Your Tire Mileage How to Save Half On Your Tires WW . . -II . a.l 1 now many motorists win write us a postal co learn about modern, economical tires ? About six years ago after six years of tire making we perfected the Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tire. Over 500,000 have been already sold. Last year our tire sales trebled Jumped to $8,500,000 because of this patented tire. Yet, during most of the year, No-Rim-Cut tires cost one fifth more than other standard tires. Now they cost an equal price. This year, 64 leading motor car makers have contracted for Good year No-Rim-Cut tires on their latest models. Today, Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires outsell our clincher tires almost six to one. All of whicfi shows that men who know are buying these modern tires. The day of the clincher is ending. To run a single block on a punctured tire often wrecks it beyond repair. With ordinary tires, a puncture must be repaired on the spot. Rim-cutting ruins more tires than any other single cause. It adds an average of 25 per cent to tire cost. Now this can be ended forever with Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires. 10 Oversize No Rim-Cutting SPAIN" MAKES ALTO RtXI.VGS Chauffeur.

That means 10 per cent more air 10 per cent greater carrying capacity. That avoids overloading. It take care of the extras, like top, glass front, gas tank, extra tire, etc. Nine cars in ten are overloaded when the car is fully equipped. That is what causes blow-outs. With the average car, this 10 per cent oversize adds 25 per cent to the tire mileage. It adds nothing at all to the cost. Our Tire Book explains bow the savings ara possible.
