East-West-Ogden Schools Favorites VVSAA -VS,N VSAAA WWW SA(W WSNVS U-sJ rvl VSW George O'Keefe Out After New Mark BY "AL." Three schools loom as favorites to tako state honors in the annual in tcrscholastic track and field games which will be staged at Provo the coming Saturday. While the Tigers, the Leopards and Panthers are on pa per the favorites to win it is a matter of a toss-up between (he Ogden High and the East High school for initial honors. However, the unexpected may hap pen and some unknown school may sprint the wee-gee and romp homo with the honors. Tho schools of the southern partof the state are always contenders for state honors and this year may bo no exception. In the opinion of the writer the Og den crew should, with O'Kcefe, Hut ton, Richards, Pingreo, .easy and vil llams In harness, cop about 25 points. O'Keefe should take at least two first places, the 440 and the 100-yard event3. In the meet staged at Logan Sat urday O'Keefe showed his class of old when lie stepped the quarter-mile event in 52 and 1-5 seconds, thus shattering tho state mark of 53 seconds, made by Fuller of Ogden in May, 1914. How ever, the new record does not stand as a state mark as records to bo of ficial and state records must be made in the annual Interscholastic tourney. On the other hand, with such men as Wilkenson of Pleasant Grove, Funk of West High, O'Keefe of Ogden, Web ster of Branch A. C, and Milne of Killifer's Tribe Defeat Rainiers SEATTLE, May 3.

Also the boys at Lafayette must get nine hours' sleep and study hard. oo Peanuts arc tho seeds or pods of a plant belonging to tlio family called the earthmjt In Great Britain, tho nuts there being used, chiefly to fatten awlnc. Dixie, as the stars in the 440-yard event the winner should step the distance around 51.4 or 52 seconds flat O'Keefe's showing stamps him as the favorite. O'Keefe has also made better timo in the century than any of the high school sprint stars and should take nnother first place for tho Tigers in that event. In the high jump with" competition, Plngree of Ogdon should be ablo to gather In either first or second place. Plngree should also cop points in the broad Jump. He should be good for at least six points. . Richards, if in form, should heave the shot around 40 feet and that dis tance will undoubtedly win. At least, Lee should take a second place. He waa expected to show class in the pole vault but failed to qualify In tho division meet. In the furlong Harold Hutton is ex pected to bring home at least a second place. Such men as Brady, Jcwkcs, of East high, Everotts of West high. Smftbaon of B. A. C. and Hodge of Springvillo will make tho Orange and Black step to win. However, tho fans expect Hutton to at least place. William's' in the discus throw may also bring in some points. In the re lay itJgoks-Jike a battle between the TlfjersT East high, West high and Branch A. C. However, the Tigers aro the favorjtqn with Hutton, O'Keofe. Richards and Veasy in harness. As the relay totals five points for the win ners, summing up the entire possibil ities of the coming tilt the Tigers should place first , second or third. If the Orange and Black representatives can score 25 points they will tako the honors. A few years ago Alma Richards and a gent named Snow Invaded the inter scholastic meet and returned home with a total of eight first places to their credit. That, however, was yes terday, and while it is probable that some school may duplicate the trick, it is by no means a certainty. After an inning of ratting good work with the wee gee board the dope on the meet reads as follows, if fair wea ther prevails, and if the local Tigers are in high spirits, (you know what we mean), good condition: Ogden first, with from 22 to 25 points; East High second, 17 points; West High third, with about 12. However, wee gee . says that the Tigers may score more than the stated amount and that the two Salt Lake schools may also score a few more. And again he says that tho schools from the south will como in for honors especially-in tho discus and pole vault and for that reason the dope on second and third place teams may be changed. How ever, the youthful star failed to change his opinion on the Tigers. So until then, fans, please don your caps and lids and rest assured that the Tigers will bring home the bacon.
