Grenade Throwing May Be
, Forerunner of Change in
Field Events
SAX FRANCISCO, ;May 9. The
announcement that thej lUiitersity of
Washington has fallen fn line with a
number of other institutions and In
cluded grenade tbrowrtg as one of
the regular field events lhas renewed
the. discussion as to the probable
arter effects of the warion athletic.
There are followers of track and
field sports who express! the opinion
that there may be a revision in the
list of events by the inclusion of
more utilitarian events to replace
those which have no particular use

"The case of the hand grenade
throwing contest Is a good example
of what may follow. It would In all
probability supplant the sbotput or
javelin throw. The sbotput is not
an all round developer in my opin
ion. It builds only a small portion
of the body, confined particularly to
the arm and shoulder, muscles of
the hand used in hurling the missile.
No accnraey is required, distance be
ing. the only thing to he attained by
the contestant.
"Grenade throwing rails for both
distance and accuracy. It also would
be a utilitarian event for the reason
that thousands of young men Inci
dentally would be learning how to
throw a missile which has become
one of the most important weapons
of offense and defense In modern
warfare." , , ;
"The hammer is another event for
which a substitution might be ef
fected by borrowing from the list of
events used in military games. There
is nothing particularly spectacular in
events for the onlooker such as Is af
forded, for instance, hy the pole
vault, one of the most thrilling of
the present day field events. Jave
lin throwing as an event in the days
when men fought with, arrows and
spears would have served the same
purpose as grenade throwing today.
But the javelin is now obsolete.
It is not likely that any one wants
to do away with the spectacular, but
events which are neither spectacular
nor of an particular use might be
supplanted with competition which
furnished v. little of both these ele
ments. Misses Galligan and

You would not expect a machinist or a coal dealer .to be attired the same as a

their printed message to be similar. The coal ad may be printe in bold, black type,
on coarse, heayy paper; but the high grade jewelry ad should be printed artistically,
with light face type, in refined colon and on finest quality paper.
. What is more, the printed message should be np to the minute in style. Old, an
