SOPHOMORE CUSS TAKES
FIRST IN MEDLEY RACE
VNIOIE ATHLETIC KVEXT
niux;s out kea eral
fiOOl) RLXXERS.
To the sopohomore class goes the
honor of having won the first annu
al medley race of the high school and
ltn it a silver loving cup presented
by Coach Albert Asbahr. In a hotly
contested race yesterday afternoon,,
lhe athletes representing the class of
1916 completed the unique event with
a good lead over the freshmen who
ran the finishing part of the race.
The medley race is a new and uni
que track event and it will be run
annually by the class teams hereaf
ter. Each class enters a man for
the 50 yard, 100, 220 and 400 yard
lushrs and the half mile and mile
runs. The 60 yard men line up first
and at the end of thetr course, they
touch the 100 yard men as in a relay
race and started them on their way.
The 100 yard men. as they finish.
Ktart the 440 and so on until the rollers
finish the race.
The r.iembers of the winning team
were as follows: Henry Latourello, 60
yards. Churles Gordon, 100 yards, Er
nest Hoylen, 220 yards, Emll Slebert,
4 40 yards, Ed Kayburn, half mile and
-Arnold Mlnnls, mile.
It was In the 440 yard dash that
the sophs took their biggest lead.
Captain Slebert in this event burned
up the circuit 'and, when he touched
off Kayburn, he gave him 60 yards or '
more. In the mile' run, the two best
miters of tho school were seen pitted
against each other, Mlnnls and Fresh
man Heed. Minnts had a , 60 yard
lead in the beginning and ran his race
safe. Heed strained every musclo to
overcome the handicap but could suc
ceed In taking up only half of It.
The event proved a popular one with
the athletes and with the wltnesxes
ntid, incidentally, It showed that there
is an abundance of good track tnlrnt
coming up from the lower classes. For
Instance Hugh Ttowman, a freshmun
who never knew he could run, sprint
ed away from the field In tho 60 yard
tlanh. Tho sophomores had two full
teams In the field and kindly donated
some of their men to the seniors In
order to complete the string for the
upperclaKsmrn.

J. N, SCOTT 6R00ME0 FOR
: RACE FOR JOINT SENATOR
J. N. Scott, prominent young
Athena farmer who is in the city
today, is being strongly boomed
for the democratic nomination
for Joint senator and has con
sented to enter the race though
he has not made a formal an
nouncement upon the subject.
Joe Scott, as Mr. Scott Is fa
miliarly known, in a member of
one of the oldest and most prom
inent pioneer families of the
county and will have strong back
ing for the Joint senatorshi;. if
he runs. He has been very suc
cessful In business himself and
is a cleancut type of citizen with
progressive Ideus and high moral
standard. .
. At the present time there-is no
one in the race for Joint senator
save C. A. Barrett who is seek
ing the repub&3tn nomUiattnn for '
reelection. There is opposition
to Barrett both among democrats
and republicans because of cer
tain pant actions on the part of
that politician and it is being
generally predicted that the
nomination of a strong democrat
ic candidate against Barrett will
mean the latter's defeat. Union
county Is said to be particularly
opposed to the present Joint sen
ator and as Barrett failed . to
make a majority in this county
at the last primary election his
chances of success are not above
par.
