THE TRACK TEAM.

On account of the unsatisfactory weather conditions which have prevailed in Cambridge almost continuously for the past three weeks, the track team is at present behindhand in its development. The Class and University games, however, showed with a certain amount of accuracy, the strong and the weak points of this year's team. The squad of 250 men has been gradually cut down so that at present about 80 or 90 men are training daily on Soldiers Field. The following men were taken to the training table last Wednesday: Haigh, Clerk, Lightner, Rust, Manson, Willis, Converse, Hallowell, Boynton, Swan, Behr, Applegate, Clark, Knowles, White, Foote, Richardson, Mills, Rotch, Glidden, Ellis, Robinson, Boal, Sawyer, Robeson, Shirk, Daly, J. Foster, Jr. and Butler.

In the sprints, Haigh and Clerk are doing good work. Butler has been suffering with a lame leg, which has prevented him from doing his best. Rust and Manson have come up to expectations, and with Clerk and Lightner, make the quarter-mile strong. In the half-mile, Applegate has not yet come up to his last year's form, and at present is inferior to Boynton, Swan and Behr. H. B. Clark has twice run the mile in 4.36 under adverse conditions. He finishes strongly and will probably do even better work as soon as the weather becomes warmer. Waller, Knowles and White are also doing encouraging work in the mile. In the two-mile Foote is in the best condition and is running well. Richardson and Mills and F. C. Williams are the next best men. The hurdle races have been closely contested this spring. Willis and Converse are doing better work than they have previously done and Bird and Ives should make fast time soon. Hallowell is laid off at present with a lame foot caused by a cut from a shoe spike, and it is impossible to say now how soon the cut will heal thoroughly. Rotch and Glidden surpass the other high jumpers, though no great heights have been cleared, on account of the poor condition of the take-off.

Boal is throwing the hammer about 130 feet and is closely followed by Ellis. Robinson, a new man, is showing good form in the shot. In the University games, he made two puts of 40 feet, 6 inches.

Sawyer and Robeson were both doing well in the pole vault until Robeson broke his collar-bone. The poor condition of the ground has prevented Sawyer from going higher than 9 feet, 9 inches. Hall, Williams, Pratt and Goodhue are also vaulting fairly well. The broad jumpers have not yet shown satisfactory form. Shirk, Daly, Foster, Brown, Keene and Ristine seem to be the best performers.

Two-mile and four-mile relay teams will be sent to the U. of P. relay carnival on April 27. Four men for each race will be chosen from the following: Two-mile race--Boynton, Swan, Behr, Applegate, J. W. Foster, D. DuBois; four-mile race--H. B. Clark, Waller, DeL. P. White, Mills, Knowles and Foote.
