The Interscholastic Track Meet
After a lapse of two years the interseholastic track meet will be held
again this year, the date having been sel for May 3 and 4. All the
high schools in the slate are invited to send representatives, but as in the
case of the basket-ball tournament, the southern schools hold elimination
meets to decide which men shall represent their section.
The last interscholastic track meet was held in 1916. This meet
was won by the Colfax (Washington) High School, with 36 points.
Lewiston, with 18. and Boise, with 10 points. finished second and third.
Nordyke. slar sprinter of Colfax, was high point winner. One record
was broken when Nordyke ran the 220-yard hurdles in 27 seconds.
Colfax received the trophy for winning the relay,
In the evening of the last day of the meet the classes of the University
put on a stuntfest and song contest. Prizes are awarded for the best
elferings in each line. The medals are also awarded the high school
men, and the Varsity "1" and blankets are given to those earning them.
The interscholastic is one of the best methods whereby Idaho comes
into contact with the high schools of the State, and the management
spares no effort to insure success.
