Tho relay race on last Friday af ternoon between tho Walhalla and Sonora schools proved a farce, when the ll rsl runner for Walhalla took the wrong course and by so doing gave a big lead lo the Seneca boys. Tho mishap discouraged the Wal halla boys and they were never able to overcome the lead, although every one did his best. Although the Seneca runner came In from 300 to 100 yards ahead ol' the last Walhalla boy, tho last live runners for Walhalla gained stead ily, which showed that with any thing like a fair start, the result of the race would have been different. After suffering two defeats, one by the crack Westminster team, tho other in an unfair test, the boys of tho Walhalla loam are not discour aged, and they believe they can make Hie race interesting for any team in the county. lt is probable that the Seneca anil Walhalla teams will meet again on next Friday, the nice starting in Walhalla and ending lu Seneca.
