The only two running events In which
Kelly did not participate the 110-yard
run and the mile run were captured
by Devolt of the Agricultural college,
who showed remarkable speed and en
durance. He won the former with ease
and in the longer event brought out a
thunder of applause at his final per
formance on the last lap. y
Devolt stood la close behind Leonard

the tatter's pace evidently proved too ,

'Stanford University, Cat. April II.
Tbe spring season In athletics Is prov
Ing one of the busiest in Stanford's
history. With the past two weeks of
fine weather the candidates for track,
baseball, boating and tennis have been
orklng bard and the different ath
letic, teams are rapidly attaining the
degree of perfection which marked their
wore just before the earthquake last
spring. Nor has the outlook for a suc
cessful season been as bright In rears
as it is now. A better spirit than ever
seems to have entered into the work of
the men and. when , the different teams
meet Berkeley in the series of inter
collegiate contests it will be with a de
termination to win.
With over III men to work with on
tha track. Trainer "Dad" Moulton la
developing a set of star performers.
Time and again this spring different
Stanford records en tha track . have
been broken. Naah. the speedy two
mller, in one of the preliminary meets
succeeded In clipping a few seconds off
the records In that svent and then the
following Saturday again broke his own
week's old record and eatabllahed a new
one. Last week Maundrell, a freshman,
succeeded in defeating the veteran Mil
ler in the mile, covering the distance in
4:15 4-, breaking the former Stanford
record In this distance. McFarlafld. this
year's captain, recently equalled i the
Stanford record of 0: i-l In the low
hurdles. In ths sprints, Stanford, con
trary to the general rule, will be espe
cially strong this year.
Portland lads Busy. - 1 - "
' Holman and Reed, both of Portland,
are the best men in these events and
though In Stanton of California thay
will find a hard man to beat, yet It la
expected that they will bring home a
good share of the points. Freshman
Reed has been laboring under heavy
odds this spring. Suffering from a se
vere Injury to his foot, tt was feared
for awhile that he would be unable to
compete in the annual Intercollegiate
freshmen meet. Stanford's chances
looked . slender because Reed was
counted upon to win both the 110 and
the 100. But Just before tbe meet he
decided through sheer pluck to enter
and though handicapped as ha waa suc
ceeded In taking second place in the
first event and waa a oloaa third in the
100. Holman is always looked upon to
win his races and with Reed in good
shape for the intercollegiate, these two
men can bo looked upon to hold their
own.
Another man who will be heard from
la P. R. Lanagan, a brother of Coach
Lanagan, who la clearing the bar at
11 feet t Inches In tbe pole vault ,
Cardinals Axe Strong. '
Ths strength of the Cardinal track
team la shown by tbe recent southern
California meet, in which Stanford com
peted against ths pick of the eollegee
of tbe south. It waa hardly expected
that Stanford would win this meet, but
the Cardinal team of 14 picked men did
the almost Impossible by taking 10
first places from the southern aggre
gation. Despite this fact, ths meet waa
elose, Stanford winning by a soore of
II to St.. Parsons, the. speeay sprinter
of national reputation, proved a stum
bling block In ' ths zzo ana 100, out
Holman ran a close second In both these
races. Another event which gives en
couragement to tha Stanford supporters
Is ths poor showing which the Blue and
Gold athletes recently made against the
Olympic club ef Ban Franoisoo. atany
of the much heralded runners of the
college across the bay were barely, able
to take places la the different events
sad basing their speculations upon this
and tha southern California meet soma
a tha wise ones arc predicting a de
cisive victory for ths Cardinal over the
Blue and Oold on April 10.
Stanford will not have a track meet
with the tTnlverslty of Oregon aa the
faculty has held against it, '
. This announcement comes as a dis
appointment. . Such a meet would have
aarvad to have brought the northern in
stltutloa into closer relations with ths
southern.
Baseball Ha Basy. .
Baseball is also olalrolng a large
share ef the student body's attention
at this time, and every afternoon the
hlaachara are filled with a good crowa
of interested spectators. The weather
nermlttlne-. Lonacan has had at least
two practice games a week with, outside
teams up to ths present time. The
nine that will represent Stanford this
year will be one of the fastest fielding
teams which has ever been turnea oui
her. With the exception of right field,
the team la' composed of veterans who
have long since learned how to cover
ground and run baaes. The batting of
the team, however, is not up to ths
nsual standard. At least this has been
shown to be ths ease ia the majority
of practice games so far. Ths 'varsity
has made one long trip this seaaon to
Reno. Nevada, .Here ther overwhelmed
the University ef Nevada ball tosserS by
a score of It to 0. Lane Ooodell or
Portland pitched the entire game and
B. P. Stott, did the receiving. Only one
hit was recorded off Ooodell . and that
was of the scratch order.- .
OoodsU la roam,
Ooodell's pitching this year has been
of the highest order. Handicapped as
he was by having to compete ace Inst a
veteran, be has shown wonderful im
provement and he may be Stanford's
mainstay in the boa against California,
The first game, scheduled to have been
played on April f , was postponed on
aocount of the Inclement weather, and
until . the next contest Ixmagan will
not announce his battery, although the
rest of the team has been chosen.
In boating and tennis the Cardinal
athletes are equally active. The new
elght-oared shell hss snived from the
east and competition for positions en
the crew is keen. Owing to the laok of

The following letter written by Mr.
Kerrigan prior to the Multnomah-Spokane
meet In Spokane on Friday night
was tnlasent. this faot therefore , ex
plaining ita publication today?
By H. W. Kerrigan, 1 ' .
Spokane, . April . It, Kverylng la
bright la Spokane for a good Ioterolub
wrestling and boxing championship:
Unlike Portland, Spokane Is anxious and
looks forward to suoh a meet. - Signs
are up over town announcing the eon-
teat'-, between the Multnomah a. a.
club of Portland and. the local athletic
club. ' A large banner, also mentioning
the contest Is strung across the prin
cipal street here. Ths advertising of
the nines certainly means sotnsthlng
khere and bespeaka success at the very
start. AS a matter of tact noxing ana
wrestling are more in demand here than
any plaoe else. The general publle is
Mu.nmm l.tM.t In MMIlMta nf this Wind
IandT gives more attention to them and
. think the Spokane athletlo club the
only club. It is quits different from
the feeling that exists In Portland
relative to the Multnomah club. Here
they think the Spokane athletlo club
the i, whole thing, every townsman be
hind IV particularly. But in Portland
the majority of the7 cftissns are ever
lastingly, against tha olub, and why we
cannot understand It Is doing good.
It has always done good, and It la the
one healthv representative athletlo ejlub
In Portland, doing more for good moral
athletics than any ether organisation,
and why shouldn't the people of Port
land back It Bp like other towns, do.
Stand behind a representative dub In
stead of "knocking" It.
But that's7 got nothing to do with the
coming athletic tournament at the Spo
kane athletic olub. Still It doesn't hurt
to compare the feeling that exists be
tween ons town snd another relative
to athletlo organisations.
. Edgar1 Frank and myself arrived here
yesterday, morning from SL . Paul.
Of ooureo the first thing we must do
waa to go up to the Spokane athletic
duo. it was wnue going np there that
we saw ths preparations being made for
the coming eontsata, . signs everywhere
ana oanners strung across the street in
different porta of the. city. That 'Is
what we must call It as It Is a pretty
good slsed city and a good one.. "
' ., Wen Agrsstlsod. . ' ' '
Up at the olub signs were up ail ever
down stairs announcing the bouts of
Friday night with pictures of the va
rious contestants taking Dart. Soma in
caricature and some In photographs. It
showed real live Interest In the sport
and for ths financial gain alone. Not
one or two but every member seemed
to be coAveraant with the different com
petitors entered and really knew there
was to be a contest. Athletics are ear.
talnly taking hold up here, and every-
Boaj- we met auring me day were anx
ious to see Frank on the mat and looks
forward to the event But he received
a telegram In the evening and learned
that he had to return home Immediately
oa aooount of business. Hearing this
as xne ciuo every one was disappointed.
tor iney naa neara much of his ability
on the mat and wanted to sea him.
Bdgar Is a great-favorite In Bnokana.
Even while he was worklna out in tha
atremoon thinking that perhaps he would
oe aoie to go on for Friday night there
were many fellows standing around
watching him at praotloe. The manage
ment did everything posslbls to urge
him to stay, but he eoul not change
nis piana Tne business was too urgent
Still, today rve seen many fellows, and
they kindf think that Frank was a
little afraid of the local man and wanted
to go heme. Of course you always hear
that sort of thing, but not from the
man who really knowa Cisco Bulllvant
the - wrestling Instructor at the olub
here, laughed when I spoke of hearing
such remarks and said he had beard
some of the very same thing, but said
one only hears It from those who are
over-en tha slaatlo and did not know the
game, - .''-.
j"- v Chances Were (food. ' "
You eould see from his tone that he
though Edgar would have a "cinch, but
being Instructor at the club he refrained
from making such remarks. Helnrich,
who was' to wrestle Frank, was not
trained by Bulllvant, but more by his
brother, who many will remember as
the lad they called "Spokane." and who
wrestled against Bailey of the Olympic
club at the expoaltlon contests In loot,
at Portland. -He la a busky young fel
low and gave such an account of him
self during the contest and being ap
plauded very enthuslsstteally byr the
crowd for his good showing against the
Callfornlan, who by ths way Is going
to wrestle against Devernak,' tbe Aus
tralian, here next Wednesday night la
a profeeeional bout He has turned pro
fessional. , It seems absurd that any one
should think Frank afraid of young
Heinncn. ror witn tne knowledge gained
during his trip east Frank has learned
more and Is better able to win In his
class thaa ever before. And If he wore
to wrestle Dale tomorrow he would win
over him, not get the bout by throwing
him. perhaps, but win cut by aggressive
work at least. As CConnell told me
himself ha thinks Frank ths better man
of the two and can win over any man
in the country at 120 sounds. Surely
there is something tn that woen .lt
comes from such an authority. .
While practicing last night Joe Ad
ams, who was to wrestls with Johnson
of ths Multnomah club, was quite se
riously hurt tearing the muscles from
ths ribs on ths left side.
It looks like he will be out of it for
tomorrow .night. But he himself In
sists on going Into It In spite of what
the doctors say. If he does and wrestles
with Johnson It would be fun for John
son. And then Again he weighs 10 or
It pounds over what Johnson weighs
and cannot train down for it - Even If
Johnson does throw him there will be
but little credit If be shouldn't wrestle,
Kaha will go ea against Johnson. Kaha

wilt be remembered as the young feilow
who wrestled agajnst "Doc" Tuttle dur
ing the bouts between Multnomah and "
Bpokane In March,
He Is about lo stripped now and la
In good shape. If Johneon throws him '
even there wonld still bs but little sat- ''
tefxetlon for Johnson of Multnomah.
Comparing the two-men it looks like
Johnson would throw Adams anyway,
aitnougn .Adams weighs about Its.
founds In condition. How he ever un- "
derstood he would be able to wrestle ,
Johnson at 1TI is hare: to determine
when the weights were specified for
171 pounda ' , - ..
Weights STe grade Class. '
Spokane, like Seattle, In mentioning '
weights took It for granted that tha
men shall weigh 171 pounda or ever
while Multnomah understood it to mean,
not over . 170 1 pounds or under if they v
liked, according to the same conditions
governing the other weights. . Still both
were at fault In making up ths con
tract. It should have been more clear
y specif ted.. .
Johnny Parsons, who defeated Olma
Dranga la the northwest championships,
thinks' he can do it Just ss easily this,
time and says he ia very anxious te
meet Ntcken of Multnomah. The man-
agers of Multnomah and Spokane are
trying to arrange a speolal match be
tween the two boys for next month. Jt
would he a great go.-. '
Mr. Flnnlgan, who la manaaer or tha
baseball team hare,- Is very anxious to
arrange a game with Multnomah and
guarantees the Multnomah club, he
cays. 1100 or more tf It is absolutely
necessary and expects ths same in re
turnMf he should taks a team to Port
