SEATTLE PLANS
RELAY MEET
I NEXT MONTH
SEATTLE, March 4 (by Associated
Press).—Plans are being made by the
University of Washington to hold here
every spring a big Western relay meet
similar to the annual Eastern meet
held by the University of Pennsyl
vania. All «>the Pacific coast and
Rocky mountain colleges and univer
sities would be invited to send their
runners to the Seattle contests.
The proposed relay meet would not
conflict with the track dates of the
Pacific Coast Conference, it is said. The
tentative date for the relay meet is
April 24,. The Coast Conference will
be held at Stanford University early
in May.
Athletes of the coast schools would
have an opportunity at the meet to
test their speed and endurance with
the runners from the mountain insti
tutions. At present the coast and
mountain schools do not meet, as they
belong to different conferences.
Five relay events—the 400-yard,
half-mile, one-mile, two-mile and four
mile—are on a tentative program.
Field events might be added later.
SEATTLE, March 4 (bv Associated
'r
Press).—Seattle’s baseball club in the
Pacific Coast league, which finished
in the cellar last season, is not going
to repeat this year, according to Will
iam Klepper, president of the club, and
Clyde Wares, who have been busy for
several weeks buying and lining up .a
club which they believe will land in
the first division.
Last year a new club for Seattle
was built up on one month’s time by
Manager Bill Clymer. Although the
team did not touch the first division,
Seattle gave it’full support.
Several big league veterans may ap
pear with Seattle this year. A1 De- J
maree, who has pitched for New York,
Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia, will
lead Seattle’s five or six pitchers. Se
attle’s infiefild, it is said, will be one
of the hardest-hitting aggregations in
the league, and the outfield will be
fast.
LOS ANGELES, March 4 (by Asso
ciated Press).—More than $1,200 was
raised by the Annandale Golf Club of
this city at a special tournament held
at the request of Sir Harry Lauder
to aid him in securing a fund of one
million pounds for the benefit of the
Scottish soldiers and sailors maimed
in the world war.
Sir Harry, when he played around
j the Annandale course recently, said
this would be the first of a series of
one-day tournaments he hoped would
be arranged for by all the leading golf
clubs of America.
TACOMA. March 4 (by Associated
Press).—Champion basketball teams
of Seattle and Tacoma will meet in a
series this month to decide the inter
city championship, according to pres
ent plans. Five games will be played.
The first game will be played here
about March 15.

FOREIGN VESSELS ARE
MECCA FOR VISITORS
IN SOUTHERN PORT
t
. GALVESTON, Texas, March 4 (by
Associated Press).—Angling for invi
tations to dine aboard foreign-owned
and manned vessels entering port here
is«once more the popular pastime of
certain Galvestonians, following a de
cision received by Collector of the
Port Fred C. Pabst from the treasury
department at Washington, to the ef
fect that enough “wet” goods be left '
unsealed for use of officers and crews
of foreign ships while inside the three- [•
mile limit. The ruling, it is taken, \
also supplies the guests aboard ships
in the harbor.
Ships under foreign charter nearly
all carry the red wine of Spain and
Italy for rationing out to officers and f
men. Under a previous ruling of the
treasury department this stock of ?
ship’s wine was placed under lock and
key while the vessel remained inside
the three-mile limit. Representations
by foreign governments, however,
caused a reversal of the decision. It
was pointed out that shipping agents
would be unable to get crews for ves
sels coming to the United States if
such a course were persisted in. The
wine, it was said, was considered a
part of the food allowance.
UNIVERSITY STADIUM
TO BE MEMORIAL FOR
HEROES OF LATE WAR
\
SEATTLE, March 4 (by Associated
Press).—Proposals that a huge ath
letic stadium to be built on the Uni
versity of Washington campus be des
ignated as a memorial to Washington
men who died while in the war serv
ice of the nation have been made by
the University Service Club, an or
ganization of 1,800 students who were
in the army and marine corps.
Copies of a resolution urging that
the stadium be designated a irygmorial
have been mailed by the Service Club
to every American Legion post and
other ex-service men’s organization in j
the state.
Claiming that Postmaster Warder
of Ketchikan is taking too much au
thority upon himself in the regula
tion of the new mail service between
Ketchikan, Petersburg and other
points, the Petersburg Report calls
him ‘*Czar” Warder, and invites him 1
to mind his own business. The news
paper claims that through the activi
ties of Postmaster Warder the mail
service to Petersburg has been rotten
this winter. The Report also states
that he did not let the boat make sev
eral trips by saying there was not j
enough mail to warrant the run.
