Thirty to 50 men entered in each of the dashs and middie distance runs. More thn 200 athletes will take part in the meet. A score of schools will be represented, their entries mak- ing a total of m 15 events, many or four contests. DUnois, with an unust well balanced team which has run rough shod over all competition thus a ually large and far this season is looked on as the favorite, although stars from outside schools cut in on the Illini points to such an extent as to give some other school a good chance. Illinois, however, is considered sure of a large number of third, four and fifth places, even if losing firsts and seconds and expects to carry through to victory with &s large number of good per-| formers, trary to the usual custom, five places will be awarded in each event, first place counting five points, second place, four; third place, three; fourth place, two, and fifth place, o1 The 15 events included jn the pro- gram are as follows: 100-yard, yard and 440-yard dashes, $80 hurdles, high jump, broad jump, pole vault, shot put, hammer throw, discus throw, and javelin throw. All of ten western conference schools have entered large teams and in ad- dition the following schools have sent their stars: Missouri, Ames, Nebras- ka, Ohio Wesleyan, Western State Normal, Michigan Aggies, Notre Dame, Butler, Cincinnati, and Grinnell. Indications are that with a fair weather and a fair track, several west- ern conference records may be broken tomorrow. Illincis is favored for the team victory, so many individual stars be keener in some events than it has been for many years. Several of the college athletes en- tered in the meet have made marks in the dual spring meets far in ad- vance of the conference records and there scems little doubt that they can duplicate their previous efforts if track conditions are good. at oe = Ot —_ Two Players Are Suspended For Attack On Ump’ YAKIMA, Wash., June 5.—Manager Cuff Blankenship and First Baseman Dempsey of the Victoria team of the Pacific International Baseball league, were suspended until an investigation can be made of thefr attack on Um- pire Held.

Comstock, who is here on a business trip, said today that he considered Paddock one of the psreatest sprinters in this country. Comstock also said he believed that the victory of. the University of Cal- {fornia at the intercollegiate games in Boston last week would prove a great impetus for college track and field Sport on the Pacific coast. “We have plenty of fine athletes on the west coast,” said Comstock, “but it costs a lot.of money to'send a team across the continent.

CLAIR TEN ROUNDS—SPECIAL EVENT Kid Ross 122 Pounds, Casper Kid Paul GOING HARO FOR LD TWIRLERS Youngsters One Over on Scribe Asserts (By HENRY L. FARRELL.) (United Press, Staff NEW YORK, June 3.—Old bones have had a lot of tough going this season. Youngsters, unknown and unsung, are slipping into the regu! robes of the old kings of the mound. “Lefty” Cooper, Fred Toney, “Rabe” Adams and “Red” Faber are the only veterans showing anything close to their old form. Alexander the Great is doing bench duty for the Chicago Cubs with a sore arm and Jim Vaughr, his big team- mate, isn’t delivering as expected. Dutch Reuther, sensation of the 1919 pennant dash of the Cincinnati Reds, is a disappointment in Brooklyn and his old staff mate, Hod Eller, is out of the game under suspension. Burleigh Grimes, Sherry Smith and in fact all of Uncle obb’s allstar nitching staff cracked and Brooklyn is falling down in the pennant race. Ferdy Schupp and Bill Doak, of the Cards are out of form. Scott has fallen by the wayside with the Ath- Bob Shawkey has beef urgless the Yankees and Tris Speaker is aving his trouble with his stars, Coveleskie, Bagby and Mails. Arthur Nekf, the $25,000 beauty of the New York Giants, hasn't been as effective as Bill Ryan, a rookie pitcher from the International league. Walter Johnson's work with the Washington Senators makes it seem that the olf star is almost through. Joe Bush hasn't shown anything for the Boston Red Sox and George Daus. has done the Tigers very little good. Dick Rudolph had to give up after a brave effort and is now. working with the Braves as a coach, Managers blame the roid, rainy weathor of the early season for the failure’ of the old wings to get in shape. But while they are waiting for the coming of the hot rays, clubs with goed young hurlers may get out for a lead that will be hard to overcome. The Pittsburgh Pirates are getting the best pitching of the year. “Lefty” Cooper is in his best form, “Babe” Adams looks as young as ever and Glazner, Zinn, Ponder and Yellowhorse are delivering. pac AS SSRI tl “OLD TIMERS” ORGANIZE.
