1920 TRACK MEETING TONIGHT

University Weight Candidates Begin Practice Next Week.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A special meeting for all Freshmen interested in track will be held in the Smith Halls Common Room this evening at 7 o'clock. Captain E. A. Teschner '17, R. G. Harwood '09, the high-jumper, and W. A. Barron '14, former captain of the University track team and quarter-miler, are to speak. This meeting will be held for the purpose of arousing more enthusiasm in track among the members of 1920. All Freshmen are invited to be present.

Beginning Tuesday, weight, hammer and shot put candidates for the University team are to report. As soon as the frost is out of the ground in the bowl end of the Stadium, definite periods of time will be assigned in which the pole vaulters and high and broad-jumpers are to practice. In the meantime, high-jumpers will work out in Hemenway Gymnasium.

Yesterday afternoon the distance men ran out Charles River road a ways, while work for the dash and middle distance men was confined to warming up on the track outside the Stadium.

In the hammer-throw W. S. Blanchard '17 is beginning to get some good distances. Until the ground softens up, men in the field events other than the weights, shot and hammer, will not have the opportunity to do much more than limber up.
