Sparks Takes Eleven men to
YaI!a VaIIa for Confer

The Willamette track team left
Thursday night at o'clock tor
Walla Walla to enter the North
west conference track meet to be
held : at Whitman college Satur
day, r-.i-v ,r--y- ?
Seven men were taken by Coach
"Lea" Sparks. Twelve may be en
tered from each, college participat
ing, bat It appeared aseleaa to
take more as their records bare
not been good enough to warrant
any chance of placing. - ;
Willamette's hopes " tor cm
places are confined to the pole
vault and . th half mile. . Nelson
has made 11 feet with the pole
this seoson, but that may not.be
sufficient to take a first. Coach
Lea Sparks was Inclined to think
that Nelson would be lucky to
place In In the meet. Kaiser has
not made less than 2:04 In the
halt mile this season, but did bet
ter In high school and declares
that he will lower the existing rec
ord of 2:03. t
Cook la a two-mil er and will
probably -be able to get a third
place or possibly better. The only
time that he has been beaten this
year was in the five-way meet at
Pacific where a College ol Puget
Sound man led - him about . 10
yards at the finish line.
Stone and Lange.will run the
mile and Stone may also be used1
in the half-mile. Lange has shown
up well in the mile in the last few
meets and may stand a show of
placing. Smith will throw the Jav
elin, though none of his heaves
this year have been very good.
Faber, the only Teteran of the
squad, will enter the 100 and the
low hurdles. He may also attempt
the pole vault. Last season he
tied for third place in the pole
vault at the conference meet.
Willamette stood next to the
last In the meet last year, nosing
Linfleld out. However, this year It
looks as though the cellar awaits
the Bearcats, as all ot the western
division . schools : have defeated
Willamette, . and- Whitman ana
College ot Idaho are rated higher
than the coast schools in track.
However, the only hope for the
Bearcats la to have some of the
other weaker teams beaten in
strongest events.
