Last night Physical Director John{ Q'Reilly and Manager John Connolly | went to Baltimore to arrange about the handicapping of the events. They are slated to get to work today en the final relay pairings. and towor- row the program will go lo the press. of the best irdoor affairs ever held in the south Atlantic section. { ' i Theodore Kistler, business manager | of Johns Hopkins athletics, deserves considerzble commendation: for the! caliber of mect he put on in the 5th | Regiment Armory in Baltimore last| Saturday night. If there was a single| Tault to be found with the games it} was that there was too much really | R001"competition, so much that it was . nexst to impossible for the average spect-tor to digest it all. Kistler not ! only put on a high-class meet. with | some of the best runners in the coun- | try competing. but made the meet a ! real financial success. No track and field meet In the history of field ath-; Jetics in this section was ever so suc- | “cessful. e “Shieldn of Penm State in the last nart of the relay his team ran against the Navr in the Hopkins meet gavei an almest perfect exhibition of how i 1o jvdfe pace in a mile. Shields| startd ahead of Curtis by about fif- teen yards, and never in that whole| race was the Navy man able to move up an inch on him. and Curtis. of| course, could at any time by sprinting have moved up and closed the sap between him and the running ma- | chine in front of him, but he w knew that Shields was setting a pace | faster than which he dared not go: without running_the risk of dropping | far back in the last eighth of a mile. 1t was spléndid judgment on the part of both runners, especially Shields. i Johns Hepkins has the greatest, array of runners that have ever repre- | | sented it, and if it has performers in | the field events of similar caliber the : other imstitutions in this section will | fiave to watch tha Baltimoresns iu the south Atlantic intercollegiate championships. Clarke a fine sprinter, one who last spring did the Yundred in ten flat, and Edwards is a hplf-miler who has covered his dis- tance in less than two minutes. Booth i8 a great miler, Thomson is good at 2py distance from the hundred to the quarter, Skinner and Somerville are cjever quarter-mile mea and Dorcus also covers that distance in good time. | Norwood is another sprinter and quar- ter-miler, and Aaronson is good in the dashes, broad jump and pole vauit. | George Washiugton has entered a| squad in the Georgetown meet. tchetites did not have a team at [Baltimore. but plan to have a squad in every set of competitions around | here during the remainder of the sea- | “University of-Maryland has entered njneteen men in the Hilltoppers'} games. the same squad it sent to the meet in_ Baltimore last week. The Cellege Parkers have ‘only.one man in the squad. though, who scored points last Saturday night, that one being Beers. who won the shot-put with a heave of 41;feet 3 jnehes. The Mery- landers al€o will be represcuted by a freshman relay team. e SPRINGGRD PRACTE S EFENDED BY COACH Ohio State’s foot ball men are now participating in spring practice.
