Besides the tennis players there was some
practice going on with the football by a few
members of the team, which hopes to come
out in the lead at the end of the season now
to begin. Some of the runners to compete
next Saturday were also going around the
track, in which number of workmen were
engaged in making repairs. Altogether
there were about so people enjoying the
cool afternoon weather and making tine
most of their time in the open air.
Matters have been rather quiet in the
cycling world, but there is plenty of e1-
citement pending for the near future. The
open road race of the Keystones will take
place toward the end of the month and this
gives promise of being the largest
affair OF its kind ever held in the neighbor-
hood. The wheel events at the East End
Gym meet will be among the most enter
tanning of the afternoon. In these the fol-
lowing will be among the competitors:
Messrs. A l. Banker, Moor, Aeldy, Hep
penstall, Close, Gibson, Myler, Nelson,
Lang, Wilson, Whitesides, McAteer and
Sam Eccles. 1t is probable that the one
and two mile races will have to be run of in
heats, and this will serve to make them the
more interesting.

the meet at Columbus on the 5th aud 9th of
September.
