SENATOR WHYTE TEAM IS STRONG ANSWERS SUDDEN IN SPOTS ONLY SUMMONS OF DEATH Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis. Or., March 17 A comparison of the track team prospects of the O. A. C. and I', of O. at the present time indlcatea that neither team has any advantage, as has been the case in former years. Where one is strong the other Is weak. It. Is safe to sav the outcome of the meet will largely depend upon the material gleaned from freshmen classes, of whlfh com paratively little is known. For O A. C. the outlook Is bright er than it has been for several years. Nearly all the old men of last year's team are back, and will be aided by some splendid new material. O. A. C. is weakest in the sprints and hur- dies ’and even the welghts are in doubt. The only sprinters O. A. C. has are Ixtomis and Schroeder, and nelth- of these can be figured upon seriously ns being of any consequence. Green-i haw and Howard nre the quarter-' milers. Howard has run the race tin-1 der 5 3 seconds, while Greenhaw has done 50 seconds and I h generally con- sidered the beBt man In the state. In the half mile O. A. C. has Ilavolt and Greenhaw, two tnen who have run the rnce in record time and should have but little trouble in disposing of their opponents.

About 4 o'clock he had a sinking spell, but recovered and was conscious until, the final convul sion that ended his life at 7 o'clock.
