The remarkable growth of tracted 25,000 persons at Franklin TYied, Philadelphia, Friday and Satur- day, has been the outstanding feature of the collegiate athletic world. Start- ing twenty vears ago with represen- tation of ten colleges and eight schools the event has steadily developed until this year 100 colleges and 200 schools | yere on the competitive list. During this time the intercollegiate athletic games have shown little or no ad- vancement. Each year since its Inception this e s EMIL H. R.

This year more than .2,500 contestant tickets were is- sued, which is 600 more than sent cul last year, and every college and school of any importance between the Atlan- tic and Pacific was represented at the games. Harvard and U. of P, Lonely, In the early years of the races Hax- | vard and Pennsylvania were the only contestants in the one-mile champion- ships. Yale soon joined the pair, and the Crimson and Blue were Penn's greatest competitors for the first ten years, but for a time these two uni- versities did not send their best tcams. Harvard and Yale both re- turned to the fold this year, the for- mer finishing second to Pennsylvania in the one-mile event, in which a new world's record was made, while Yale was third in the two-mile title event and won the championship. Pennsylvania has won more of these championship events than any other college, which is accounted for by the fact that the Quakers enter a team in each of the three champinn- ships every year.

The peculiar part of the games is that Cornell has won but two cham- | pionships, which can be explained in various ways.

The relay races have been the means of developing more good men at the quarter mile than any other meet in the world. Nearly every quarter- miler has done his best work at the relay races.
