Dr. Clough had a great deal to do with the train ing of Howard Drew and Fred Kelly, both world's champions, while they were at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Nineteen athletes have been listed by Captain Hummel, and all are promi nent in their events. Oliver B. Huston, who captained the 1909 University of Oregon squad and made a most re markable record by running 100 yards five times in two weeks each in 10 seconds and with a different set of timers on each occasion, has been asked to do a little indoor work, and he has consented. Should he regain some of his old-time form he will be a danger ous man in the sprints. Besides Oliver Huston in the sprints. Captain Hummel has Carl Huston. "Speed" Coulter, Snook. Thayer and B. R, Holt. George Dewey and Wallace Kadderly will run the distance events. Walter Muirhead, Chester A. Fee, Walter A Hummel and Johnny Carr are the hurdlers, while the weights will be looked after by Tom Louttlt, George Philbrook. Owen Carr and Chester A Fee. Bellah Will Pole Vault. Philbrook took a rest last Spring, and now he hopes to be ready to com pete again. Johnny Murphy and BUI Magone are the high jumpers, and with 8am Bellah they also will look after the broad jump. Sam Bellah, 1915 Na tional champion; Ralph Spearow, Bill Magone and Chet Fee will be the pole Vaulters. Hummel broke the senior Amateur Athletic Union record in the 440-yard hurdles at Newark, N.

The state championships will be held as heretofore at Waverley. probably a fortnight before the Northwest events. C. H. Davis, Jr.. of Waverley. is pres ident of the Pacific Northwest Golf Association and It will be up to him to name the dates for the big affair. Last Summer the Northwest championships at Spokane opened on June 26 and the finals were played on July 1. The week corresponding to that this year will be June 25 to 30. . If President Davis deems these dates acceptable the state championships likely will open on June 4 and continue until June 9. The new board at Wa verley has not organised so no new tournament chairman has yet been named. Graham Glass, Sr., would make an ideal chairman if he could be Induced to carry the load.
