BIG LIST OF ENTRIES
Metropolitan Championship Com
testants All Stars.

The entries for the championships of
the Metropolitan Association of the A. A
H. closed yesterday with Chairman F W.
Ruben. and not in a long time has such
an aggregation of crack athletes entered
for a similar meeting Among the New
York A. c. entries are the weighs and
hammer throwers, John Flanagan and
Charles Chadwick. while some of those
that win negotiate the other events are
M. w. Long, t. B. Turner, a. c. Kraenz-
lein. I. K. Baxter. E. B. Bloss. s. K
Thomas. r. G. c. Wood and others. The
games committees of the different clubs
are daily receiving communications from
their track men who are away on vaca-
tons to enter them in their respective
specialties and for this reason it is prob
able that entries win be received up to
Monday evening. The Kniekerbocker A..
c. team will be quite large one The
men are all training diligently at Bergen.
Point each evening and some of them feel
very confident of success.
The Pastime A. c.. win have several en-
tries in the weights. and it is probable
that the New West Sides Will have at
least a half dozen entries. Delegations
from Syracuse, Troy Albany, Rochester
and Elniira will attend the meeting and
1t is expected entries will Ioe received
from each Of those places.
The conclusion of the days sport will
be a game of baseball between the New
York A. G. and the Knickerbocker A. c..
1t goes without saying that this will be
one of the most spirited games OF anna
teur baseball of the season.
