thing but promising for a good after.
Moons sport. The cinder track was
sogGy and fully two-fifths of secont
slow and the in-field was practically
quagmire. Taking everything int
consideration the results of the after
Moons trials were more satisfactory
than could have been expected and the
finals, tomorrow, should bring about
some of the most exciting finishes ever
seen in the history OF American ath-
leticS.
Pennsylvania gathered in enough
positions to warrant a prediction OF
victory for the red and blue striped
athletes, tomorrow. Their supremacy
can be attributed to the prOwess of A.
c. Kraenzlein, who qualified in four
events and has a big possibility Of
scoring first honors in the finals OF
three out of four Of these events. lie
was running nicely in the 1OO-yards
dash and in the broad jump he was to
the fore, his closest competitor being
Prinstein Of Syracuse, and it is unnec-
essary to add that he romped home IN
his trials over the high and low hur-
dies.
In the 10O-yard dash Jarvis Of Prince
ton. seems to be the only stumbling
block in the way of kraenZeleln
scoring four winning brackets in the
finals, tomorrow afternoon.
Prinstein of Syracuse, will have a hot
argument with the Pennsylvania, for
the broad jumping honors, but judging
from the exhibition made by both men
today, the odds are in favor Of the
Quaker representative winning out.

broken in the trials and it Is just pos
sible that with good weather and dry
track. other records by go by the board,
