Caifornia, in the place position, and
47 for Louisiana State university
The winna’s won only one first
place, the discus by Gordon “Slinger”
Dunn, but the Indians picked up many
seconds, thirds and fourths

Louisiana State, the defending
champion, grabbed four firsts, the
sensational Glenn Hardin winning two

Bontnieiis defeat of Cunningham
i. th was one of the most sen
sations eispodes of the day- The
Prlnci on laJ nipped the Kansan in
the last 150 yards and won going

the pair at the finish
Gkan Bothered by Injury
Bonthien i.evers. d a decision of a
week ago at Old Nassau when Cun
ningham set a new world’s record of
4 minutes 6-7 seconds- Bonthron’s
time of 4 minutes 8-9 seconds was bet_
ter than Cunningham’s N- C- A- A
record of 4:09 8 last year.

left foot, had nothing left for the half,
some 40 minutes later.:, and did not
finish among the first six. Charlie
Ilornbestel of Indiana won handly

the league’s tail-enders, the Cincinnati

were idols of the fans in those days
a decade ago- Of them, only Vance,
Adolfe Luque and Jess Haines remain
in the corner of the publics eye
Now, warming the bench day in and

professionally since 1914, when he was
21. They are Ted Kleinhans and
Tony Freitas.
The Reds got Kleinhans from Phil

Farrell three straights, the score
125 to 122, 125 to 123 and 125 to 42'.

with Slim Hairston the first five
games, they played at the Apex
; Billiard Parlor, 24th and Grace Sts:,
operated by a colored man by the
name of Culrtis Wales- Farrell
brought a number of his white
friends from the Holmes Parlor. Mr.
Wales extended to them, very polite
ly and courteous their welcome.
The next six games were played at
Ho|mes, thtjee nights, two games
eaeh night- The third night of the
match, Mr- Holmes showed his un
sportsmanshp and unAnrerican mood
by requesting Slim to ask his colored
friends out of the parlor. The next
night the game was taken to the
Club Billard Parlolfls, 14th and Doug
las Streets, and we had a large
number of colored people in attend
i ance, and we were treated fine- Long
may live such places as the Club
Billard Parlors- Fanrell told the

the colored place that he would like
to play another match there
