(Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, April 26.—By all|"° odds the greatest event in the | rev Pennsylvania relays in progress at Franklin field, Philadelphia, will be the two mile relay in which the principal entries are Cambridge (England), Penn State and George- town. Enthuslasts are looking for a new world's record in this distance and while there are various opinions as to the winner the writer is inclined to think that Georgetown has the better chance of coming through. In other track events nothing in the way of spectacular performance is promised. No records are likely to fall, and the members of the American Olympto selection com- mittee seated in their special boxes are not likely to find any new candi- dates for the 6,000 and 10,000 meter races at Paris. In point of the number of entrants and the variety of colleges repre- sented in polnt also of widespread public Interest, the two days meet- ing on Franklin field is second only to the Olympic games themselves. ord. fan sen’ lath well of all Allen Helifrich, who helped so materially in bringing Penn State to the fore in the two mile last year is in excelJent condition to run and he will be well supported, al though one wonders whether he will get such support as Marsters of Georgetown, who has 1.64 in the half to his credit will get, say from his team mate, Brooks. As for Cambridge, her principal half miler Lowe, is rated as among the fastest at the distance in England. — ee Clarence H.
