'SEATTLE, Wash., April 23. (Spe cial.) The University of Washing ton, piling- up a total of 22 points, won the second annual relay carnival. held in the university stadium this afternoon. Oregon agricultural college, the winner last year, took second with 1 points; the University of Southern California third with ten; the Uni versity of Oregon fourth with seven the University of Idaho fifth, with four; Whitman college sixth with three, and Washington state college seventh with one. Montana Wesleyan the other college entered, failed to win a single event. Arthur Tuck, the University of Ore gon's all-round -athlete, won the pen tathlon, the feature event of the meet, with 3.111.261 points; "Sticks' Dement, of. Whitman, took second with 2 744.932; Pat Perrlne. Idaho, third, with 2,515.524; Tom McGowan, Montana, fourth, with 2.485.560. Tuck's throw of 167 feet in the javelin, more than 30 feet better than his nearest opponent, helped him ma terially in piling up the winning points. Rain Prevents New Records. A driving rain, which began falling before the start of the meet and which hindered the runners through out, prevented the establishment of any new records. After looking at the rain coming down in torrents Referee Varnell called off the exhibi tion discus throw by Pope, the uni versity intra-mural half-mile relay race and the high school and fresh men medley relay race. Vic Hurley and "Casey" Anderson, Washington's fast sprinters, furnished the surprise of the meet when they finished first and second in the spe cial 100-yard dash. Anderson, run ning in his best form, forced Hurley to the limit. Two watches caught Hurley in 10 flat and the others 10.2, which was the time allowed. Sterling of Montana took third place, beating Snook of O. A. C. by inches. Real Speed Shown In Relay. Bill Isenhouer, Eddie Leahy, Gwynn Wilson and George Schiller, the Uni versity of Southern California's half mile and mile relay team, showed the spectators some of their real speed. The southerners were running m a rain, for the first time, yet they stepped out and ran both races in re markable time. In both races it was the Washing ton runners who forced the Los Au geles men to run their best. In the one-mile relay. University of Southern California broke the record made last year by Oregon Agricultural College in 3 minutes and 2-5 seconds, by 1 3-5 seconds. The distance was stepped in 3 minutes 30 4-5 seconds, .remarkably fast time considering the condition of the track and the driving rain. The mile relay was the hardest fought race of the day. Bill Isen houer, running fir3t for University of Southern California, led Metier, Washington's first runner, by a few feet. Eddie Leahy, the visitor's next runner, held the lead over Loudy. second man for Washington, but Gwynn Wilson Increased it over Reg Pratt, the varsity's third runner. Coach Edmundson put Don Douglas In fop Washington for the last lap Running in beautiful form. Douglas soon caught up to Schiller, but tnc southerner only toyed with him for a minute and then let loose, finishing about 20 yards to the good. Two-Mile Relay Again Won. Washington repeated its victory of last year In the two-mile relay, win ning with fully 40 yards to spare. Davis, running the first half mile for the local team, gained a short lead and Williams, Washington's sec ond man. Increased, as did Deall and Douglas, who ran third and fourth. The showing of Art Tuck in the pentathlon was one of the features of the afternoon. Tuck won the discus, the Javelin, and finished second in the 1500-meter run and 200-meter run and third in the broad Jump. 1'at Perrlne, the university of Idaho's Olympic man in this event, was far from his usual form. The cold weather was playing havoc with Perrine's muscles, and the Mos cow, man was handicapped whenever he started anything. "Sticks" Dement, Whitman's star basketball man. showed that he was a capable track performer by winning the broad jump and 200 meter run and placing well up in the other events.

April 23 Twenty years old, keen-eyed and avowedly optimistic. Charles V. Paddock, hold er of four world's championships:. Is not only a good athlete, but. accord ing to his Instructors, he Is a good student. Paddock Is a senior, majoring in English, in the school of arts and sciences1 at the University of South ern California; member of the Delta Sigma Itho. the national debuting so ciety; possessor of a niedal for win ning the southern California inter scholastic championship In debut Intr, and a scholarship member of the I 'in Beta Kappa fraternity. When not training with his conch on the athletic field, he is in tlu uni versity library writing imaginative descriptions of thai fair phantom land "west of the Hespcrldcs," which members of the writing cult htiva from ages past sought to perpetuate in beautiful letters. With htm, he said, racing Is "Bond exercise," but it is not an ultimata goal. "1 run." declared young Paddock, "becaus-e it seems, and always hna seemed, perfectly natural for me. My father, when no was younger, did a little sprinting for Michigan, and I can't remember when I wasn't try ing to beat my schoolboy friends to the 'third telegraph pole,' or the cor ner store." In the" grammar schools of James vlllc, Tex., where Paddock was born, the only son of a nilddlc-ugetl couple. It was thought he was going to be n "dellcute boy." lie was thin and frail in appearance, but, realising t lm t staying Indoors reading his father's fascinating stock of books would not "help matters," Paddock says he adopted running as a hobby primarily as a means of keeping himself part ot the time out In the sunshine, bu.-y at some "good exercise." During his racing days Paddock has run 160 major races entalllnir championships of greater or less de gree, and of this number has won lj2, taking second place In five ant third in three. He won the champion ship of the United Mates nl Huston in the 220-yard event In 1920 and a week after this race, at llrooklyn, broke the world's record for the 1i meter dash on grass. In 10 3-5 seconds. At the Olympian games he won the. 100-meter race In an event for w hkh 350 runners from all parts of the world entered, the elimlnat Ions re sulting in only six participating iu the finnls. Paddock has an eight-foot racing stride and uses a 16-foot leap to touch the tape, lie weighs 10 pounds ami his training, he says, consists chiefly in obeying his trainer. Dean Crom well of the University of Southern California. Paddock denied the "sports com ment" that he Is superstitious or that that is why, before a race, he raiM-a his arms aloft three times. I do this," he said, "not because I'm superstitious, but to fill my lunxs with fresh air. 1 don't raife my anus for luck I tap on wood. Sprinting la an uncertain game; it is so short busi ness that anything may happen. He fore a race I invuriably tap on wood chiefly for the psychology of the thing. It keeps me from getting over confident and I go in feeling squarely up against my opponent." Paddock's athletic record stands he. hind him. But with his artihtlc work he admits there is a difference. With that so far, he confesses, he has prac tically got no further than wearing his hat on the back of his head and putting his feet on his desk in the editorial rooms of a Pnxudena dally paper and trying, ineffectually, to look "literary" when the "boys" in sist on calling him "Charlie." People who try to figure out ex actly how Paddock w ins say that In a dash of 100 yards he makes a fraction more than 35 eight-foot strides in ad dition to the great 16-foot leap, which is a feature of his final spurt to the tape. E. D. (Dad) Moulton, veteran trainer of Stanford university athletes, re cently described Paddock's running form as very peculiar "a sort of a bound or climblng-the-rope motion." After Paddock broke the world's record at Berkeley by running the 220-yard dash in 20 4-5 seconds, he went to Stanford and smashed the ex isting official record again by run ning the distance In 21 seconds flat. Moulton said he had never seen a man run so fast before. CHARLEY PADDOCK. rENASV THACK ME.V WIN Harvard Team Is Defeated by Scoro of 89 1-3 to 17 2-3. PHILADELPHIA, April 23.
