By Earl It. Goodwin QREUu. .. HIOULTURAL COLLEGE'S varsity runners and field men had little trouble in winning the sixteenth annual Columbia university Indoor track and field meet Saturday afternoon in the coliseum with 60 points, but the fight for second place among- the teams was a battle royal between Multnomah Amateur Athletic club, Oregon Aggie freshmen and the University of Ore gon frosh. The "Wlnged-M" wearers managed to scrape up one more point jthan the Corvallis freshmen. The O. A. C. rooks were Sable to win over their freshmen rivals by two markers; The team scores were: O. A. C. varsity 60, M. A. A. C. 18, O. A. C. freshmen 17, Oregon freshl men 15 and Chemawa Indians S. lH Ameng tnie prep asjnooiers Jerrerson nign or rortiana jtii'i rj h Jumped into the lead and .held it, totaling 24 points as 11 against CorvalUs high, with 11; Franklin high .of Port land, with 7; Lincoln high of Portland i: Benson Tech Of Portland and Chemawa Indian prep school 3 each, and James John high of Portland, 1. REV. SPEAROW HIGH MAN " Rev. A. Ralph Spearow of St. Helens. Or., representing the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club, was high point man, scoring first in the pole vault, first in the broad Jump and second in the high Jump. His 13 points were Just one more than those made by Arthur- Tuck, the Oregon freshman, who took first in the 60-yard idash, first in the 16-pound shot-put and third in the 220-yard dash. I Tuck breezed in ahead of Maurice Snook of the Oregon Aggies in the 6,0 yard sprint, but when the two met in the furlong, Snook took the lead and won. while Tuck won third place only after -a sensational lunge In the last yard of the event. j The open relay furnished much x-; cltement and was the cause of the Ag- j gle freshmen winning from their ancient I rivals, the Oregon green-cap donners. ', When the quartets took their marks the j Oregon athletes were ahead by three i points in the total score and the way j that Aggie varsity started out It looked j as though another win would be taken j by the upper classmen. Snook, running I last for the varsity, had a 20 yard lead j Just before he came into the final j stretch and he was followed by the frosh ! from his Institution. He eased up when ha saw that he had no competition and the Aggie freahman went to the tape first, thereby getting the five points and taking third place In the team score. j COHVALLIS BQTS FEATURE The work of Snyder and Dick Lewis of the Corvallis high school in the 880-yard run was worthy of much notice, for the two youngsters never were headed al though Wright of Jefferson made every effort to overtake them. Snyder went first and Lewis seconds- in the event, j Louis Coulter proved himself the best sprinter among the high schoolers for he breasted the tape first in both the 50 yard and 220-yard dashes. Stearns of Lebanon, Or., showed his, heels to the uarter-mllerg, much to the surprise of those present, as the wiseacres had it i figured that Wright would be the wln nef. ' . So many entries were in the S80-yard academic relay that it was necessary to run In heats against time. .Jefferson high won over Franklin high by 2-5 of a second. In the special 10 mile race which opened the day's activities. Mose Payne of Multnomah was first and Harry Floeter, a teammate, finished a lap be hind. Three Columbia university ; ath letes, Kelleher. Haws and McPartand, entered, but were forced to give up be fore reaching the finish. TO MEET 5EXT SATURDAY Johnny Baker, manager of the Winged "M" trackers, announced that a dual meet will be held next Saturday after noon on Multnomah field with the Uni versity of Oregon varsity and freshmen forming the opposition. The University f Oregon varsity did not enter the Co lumbia gathering because of lack of training and condition for so early a fleet, it was said.

' Yale Will Have Strong Staff of Gridiron Tutors Tale Is going to have a strong coach ing staff on her football team next fall. The recent announcement of the per sonnel of the staff by Captain Tim Cal lahan was received with a great deal of interest, although the absence of the name of Dr. Al Sharpe, once famous Cornell mentor, and coach of the Blue last fall, caused some surprise. Sharpe is in charge of all athletics at Yale, however, and it is explained that he was left off the football coaching staff by Head Coach Tad Jones at his own urgent request. Tad Jones' return to Tale, it Is be lieved, will greatly revive- football spirit at New Haven.. He will have as his as sistant Dr. Arthur Brides, llfte coach ; Dr. William Bull, coach of tbe kickers; Harry Vaughn, coach of the ends, and John W. Field, coach of the backfleld ers.

American -athletes competing in Ant werp next August will compete over a curve course In the ZOO-meter event The 220 yards dash In this country is nearly always run on a straightaway track; is never satisfactory to spectators. This Is because "the fields as a general rule are not large enough to permit an unin terrupted view from start to finish.

Four hundred dollars in cash will be offered at the Oregon state shoot, and a lfke sum will be hung up at the Washington State and Northwest Sportsmen's association tournaments. The parent body is making an effort to do away with udded purses and with in the next couple of years it is likely that trophies alone will be the prices In registered events.

After more than a month of hard -spring training below th Mason- Dixon line, the' regulars and rookies -of the 16 major league clubs are to day making tracks for the scenes of the opening games, and the curtain will go up on what promises to b the most successful baseball season . since 1912.
