A forecast of rnln cant a shadow
over the northern division Pacific
Coast conference track and field
meet here today, when a mighty
band of athletes the finest collec
tion of track talent ever developed
in tho Pacific northwest was
ready to give the acid test to 15
conference records.
"Probably rain Saturday" was
the weather bureau's forecast last
night which rocked tho hope of
a number of cinder artists who
were being counted upon to shat
ter conference marks of from one
to .five years old.
In, tho preliminaries the Unlver
uitv nf Washington sound qualified
for nine places In this afternoon's
finals. The University of Oregon
captured seven positions, Wash
ington and Oregon Htate coIIokcs
each won six, and the University
of Montana one. The University
of Idaho, the other entrant In tho
annual moot, did not have starters
' in tho five events, namely, loo and
22Q-yard dashes, high and low
hurdloB and 440-yard run.
Tho powerful Washington com
bination, which has swept aside
all Pacific northwest competition
this year, was a heavy favorite to
win the meet, while Oregon and
Washington Htate colleges ranked
a close second in the dope.
