Biennial Games.

The biennial games which take place today at 2.30 should be unusually interesting, judging from the number of prominent athletes who have entered. In the high hurdles there should be a race well worth seeing with such men entered as Chase the American champion, and Curtis who won this event at the Olympic games. The low hurdle race should also prove exciting with such performers as Bremer, Chase, and Perkins, the Yale crack. This race has been changed from the usual 220 yards to 146 2-3, and the 220 yards flat to one of 150, so that it will not be necessary to open the gates across the track, as this gives many persons a chance to enter without paying. Perhaps the most interesting event on the programme will be the special half mile race, scratch, in which Hollister, Burke, McLaughlin of Worcester, Hollander, and Frank Rowe will compete. If the conditions are favorable it is thought that Hollister stands a good chance of breaking the Harvard record. Another good event will be the one mile race in which Conneff is scratch man. Grant has 50 yards and Blake, who ran in the Marathon race, has 55, which are the two smallest handicaps. Hoyt will probably take part in the pole vault and Cross of Yale who recently did better than the intercollegiate record with throwing the hammer 143 feet, will compete in this event as well as in the shot put. Ellery Clarke has also entered these events besides the high and broad jump. The team races are always attractive and the two on today's programme should be well contested, although the English High team in the interscholastic, and Yale in the intercollegiate seem to stand rather the best chance.

H. A. A. tickets will admit owners to all of the seats except those in the new grand stand which has been built opposite the running broad jump and which will seat about 500. Admission to this will be fifty cents extra. The CRIMSON will have a bulletin board in the middle of the field on which the score of Harvard-Princeton games will be given by innings.

In each event there will be three prizes which will consist of handsome silver mugs. The first prizes will be about eight inches high and correspondingly large round. These prizes will be the best which have ever been given by the H. A. A. Besides the track officials a large number of ushers have been appointed. J. C. Fairchild is head-usher, and the others are: D. P. Rogers, A. B. Holmes, H. Dibblee, A. F. Street, F. L. Huidekoper, M. E. Stone, Jr., A. H. Ladd, R. H. Hallowell, D. Cheever, J. M. Thayer, J. W.
