Oliver King Jeffrey, chairman of ths Multnomah swimming committee, says that over $600 worth of prizes for the different events will be given away.

Such Is Howard Mundorff, third baseman of ths Nicks and ths sensation of ths Northwestern league both with ths willow and on ths grass. If Mundy doesn't get at least two hits a day. ths fans begin to think he la slowing up In his batting. Hs has been slamming ths pellet oftener than lb Lajols this week. He got four bangles In flvs trips last Monday, two out of three Tuesday, two out of four Fri day and ths same proportion yesterday. Looks pretty much as If hs will not last in ths Northwestern lsagus an other year at that rata And it la too bad that Mundy. Is ths property of ths San Francisco club Instead of tha Port land club.

But when Hlckson took his handful ef men out to Columbia university and pulled third place in ths meet and won the relay raoe from the colleges in an electrifying manner, the club members Immediately decided that track athletic were only dormant and concerted action would get a. winning team together and reestaDiisn the Old Urns supremacy.
