Gold Blue and Jefferson Hi Athletes Set Record Blue and Cold Team" Have Won Track and Field Honors With Great Regularity. By Earl It. Goodwin JEFFERSON hig-h school always has taken a prominent part in athletics in the Portland Inter-scholastic league since its entrance in the , circuit in 1910, but there is one .branch of athlet- lea that the Dem ocrats have prov en to be cham pi ons in with un caffffy regularity. The east aiders have turned out track and field is. squads that have been able to show the way in the v- 4 f r- -i j: annual gathering on Multnomah field for the last five seasons. , The first track title was taken by Ilopkin M. Jenkins' school in 1915 and since then none of the other institutions have been able to wrest the banner from the holders. In 1917 the meet was called off because of the war actlvitiea Portland Academy, now a thin? of the past, captured the first meet in 1906. The next two- seasons the championship was won by the West Side high, now known as' Lincoln high. The East Eide hleh school, now the Washington hiRh. took a fling' at track for the first time i in 1907 but only' three points were awarded the colonials. Nothing was scored by Washington the i following year, but Coach Veatch's aggregation came out with a ' bans in '1909 and romped off with the highest honors. . COLUMBIA. ; HOLDS: HONORS. A close race for the team trophy was offered the fan id' 1910, Portland Acad emy, nosing out Washington by four points, IS, to 82. 'For the riext two cam paigns the East Skiers held sway. In t act, they took Everything in sight and there was little opposition." Washington made j62 as against 23 for their nearest v rivals in-1911 and one. year later three of the S2 points were lost. Then for two yeajs Columbia universe ity reigned supreme on the track and field only to have Jefferson high step In and grab off the easy Innings in 1915. Since then Jefferson , has had , some mighty well balanced teams to back up Us reputation. . CLOSEST MEET I If Mil The largest number of points scored by any team in the annual track and field meet of the Portland Interscholas tic league Is 62, made by Washington high In 1911. The closest battle for first .honors occurred In 1916 when Lincoln high made a desperate effort to break ynto the win cotumri. The ffort was too much, for Jefferson won out, 39 to 38. 05 BBCOED BROKE ' One record "was broken in the 1920 meet and it was overlooked at the timet Kenneth Scott of Washington nig) heaved the. discus a distance of 119 fes 10. inches " and it broke the . 5revios , mark of "Duke' "Devonshire made ; i: 1916.
