Acacia Holds First In Track Events of Organization Meet
Opportunity Will be Giver Men Not Yet Entered to Show Their Ability
Considering the day and the condition of the track, the time in the running events was good. Fisher won the quarter-mile in 53 1-5 seconds, followed very closely by Firebaugh. This was the best race of the day, and firebaugh had a nice finish. Firebaugh cut down on him on the finish stretch, and finished a yard behind. The day was cold and most of the race was run against the wind, and the time was very good for this early in the season, according to the weather report. Both Fisher and Firebaugh will be eligible for track this spring.
The Acacias led the field in the first day of the inter-organization track meet, by a 117-2 point lead over the Kappa Sigmas. The results in the 56-yard low hurdles, javelin throw, and quarter-rule run, which were closely contested, included 1663 1-2; Kappa Sigma, 1546; Delta Upsilon, 1545; and Acalamus, 1303.
New Men Show Up Well
In the javelin throw, Smith, a freshman from Pittsburgh Normal, hurried the spear 142 feet 9 inches. He has a record of 180 feet which he made at Pittsburgh, and until last spring he held the Missouri Valley Record. He won the event as a representative of Pittsburg the first time that the javelin throw was included in the valley meet, in St. Louis, two years ago. He will not be eligible for valley competition until next year.
Kennedy, a Washburn athlete, took second in the javelin, followed closely by Norton. Both of these men will be eligible in the spring.
Graham, a Sigma Alpha entry, took first in the 50-yard low hurdles. His time was 6 3.3 seconds, which, considering the condition of the track and the fact that the race was against the wind, is very fast. "With Graham in the hurdles, the loss of Kearney from last year's team will not greatly cripple our chance in that event," said Coach Schlademan.

Two freshmen showed up well in this event. Dunning, Kappa Sigma, who ran last year for Emporia Normal, took second under Graham, Miller, Delta U₂ won first in the second beat.
"A dozen javelin men are needed right now," Coach Sebhlademan declared. "With Matthews, Bradley, and Phillips out of school, Kansas will have to develop several new men if any points are to be won in this event. Kennedy and Norton are good men, but they may be busy in other events, and any man that has had any experience throwing a baseball even, should report to me for practice right after Christmas."
Opportunity will be given to any man in school who did not get a chance to enter in these events yesterday to come out any time this week. If you happen to every man in school who can do anything at all in track to come out and
enter unattached. There is no charge and the sheds will be open for dressing and showers. From those who come out; now I will pick a sword of not less than one hundred men to report for practice immediately after Christmas," said Coach Schirdenmann today.
The scheduled events will be run off in order for the rest of the week, and any man in school can enter at time, according to Coach Schadman.
El Atenco will hold its regular meeting Thursday afternoon, 4:30 room 313 Fraser.
Pen and Scroll will meet Wednesday night in Room 265 Frater at 7:30. The party, that had been planned, will be postponed indefinitely.
