The great rivalry in athletics that has sprung
up among the schools in the New York Inter
scholastic A. A. gives promise OF an exciting
season. Out OF tho seventeen schools fifteen
are training hard. In track athletics the race
| for championship honors will undoubtedly be
close between Barnard and Berkeley schools.
Among the most interesting events In inter
scholastic circles this season are the relay races
for schoolboys promoted by A. A. u. athletic
clubs. At the opening games OF tho Xavier A.
A. and Company q, Ninth Regiment, held last
Monday night. with the exception Of tho per.
formances OF d. J. wcfers. the relay race was
the star attraction, and caused widespread en-
thusiasm among the spectators. Pingry, Borkc-
ley, Barnard schools, and DC la Sale Institute
were the contestants. Each school had n team
OF four Of Its best sprinters, each man to run two
laps. Barnard School won tho event without
any apparent effort. W. $. Nipple, the inter
scholastic champion was one OF the team, and no
easily ran away from his field. Pingry School Of
New Jersey was second, with II. u. Maurel doing
the best work. Berkeley School was third.

Capt. Crook expects soon to have them

gaging the grounds at 135th street and Lexing-

games have been scheduled between now and
May 1 on which date the first league game will
be played. The date for the schools gymnastic
championships has been fixed for April "a, and
the youngsters are already working for 1t. On
