I. F. IVICKIE Captain Track Team Q l' RACK ATHLETICS. For the last two years an unusual amount of interest has been taken in track athletics and during this period Tarkio has produced her best track team. Every college record with the exception of one has been broken in the last three years. These records com- pare well with many of the records of our large institutions, where there is a greater num- ber from which to pick a team. Tarkio has reason to be proud of her running events. The l0O-yard, the 220-yard and the mile are especially good, However, the high jump is not up to what it should be. Moyle and Elder have made several good records. It is too early to state much concerning this year's team. Arrangements are being made for a meet with Doanelt sometime in May and a strong team is promised. In the field events we will have practically the same men as last year. New material must how- ever be developed for the running events. With the loss of Moyle and Elder the team will be handicapped in those events. The old men of last year's team are Captain Mc- Kie, Eerrier, Smith, Stewart, and Cunningham. Interest is being shown in the work and a number of new men are out and are taking systematic training. This is one of the features of the work which is sought and should always be encouraged, if Tarkio expects to hold a good place in track athletics. fltDoane-Tarkio track meet, held May 12, 1906.
