220-yard hurdle race—Cathey. Smithvm (O. A. C.) and Wirwor (Washington). Time 0:27. Mile run—McCrary (Washington), Davolt and Ixsmard (O. A. C.). Time 4 :43 3-5. Hammer throw Walker (0. A. C.), McDonald (Washington) and Shejiard (0. A. C ). Distance 125 feet 9 inches. The relnv race was conceded to O. A. C.. thus making the locals a total of 71 points against 51 for the visitors. The iiu-et was entirely fr.s-from any unpleasant contentions, and we trust the Washington boys went away with the same feclirurs of friendship and good will that we entertain toward them. O. A. C. Wins from Oregon. For the first time since 1897 C. A. C. has won the championship of Oregon on the track, and not only that, but also the championship of the Northwest. The decisive victory over the University of Washington, followed by defeating the University of Oregon hv a greater score, gives t » a clear title to these honors. The meet with Oregon May 27 was in no way disappointing to the supporters of the Orange, every one of Trine's men doing his duty well, and the score. 78 to 44. indicate closely the respective strength of the two team . It is a notable fact that O. A. C. won every race, the 120 and 220-yard hurdles, the 100. 220, 440 and SSO-vard, mile ami relay race , and it | caka plainly the greatness of W. O. Trine as a trainer of athletes. In the field events lemurs were evenly divided, each team winning three firsts. The Northwest record in the half mile was lowered, the new mark (icing 2:02 1-5. The time in the relay. 3:33. was splendid. The college record in the 120-yard hurdle was lowered from 0:16 4-5 to 0:16 1-5 by Itclden. Swann broke his own record in the pole vault, making 10 feet 6 inches, llugg was the star for the visitors, putting the shot 40 feet and making an exhibition throw in the hammer, after winning that event, of over 128 feet. A IIk- event which decided the meet was finidled, a magnificent Orange banner, on which in bold letter wa the wort! “Champion ,” floated out from the flagpole of the Armory. The brecac wax exactly right to cause it to stream broadside to the spectators, and a iniglity shout hurst from those who love to see the Orange win. a shout of joy and victory.
