Preparations Completed for the
Georgetown Meet.
The Champions of the Amateur Ath-
Ietic World Represented in List of
Entries-ArranSeme for Hand
ling the Games--The Programme.

The indoor athletic carnival under the
auspices of the Georgetown University
Athletic Association. which has attracted
the attention of the athletic world for
several mouths past. will take place at
Convention Hall tonight. The list of
entries has never been surpassed. as far
as the men and their records are con-
cerned. OF course, there have been meets
with larger number of participants
than that Of tonight. but never before
has such a galaxy of stars assembled to
take part in indoor contests.
1t is hoped that the officials who have
the running of the games will be sue
cessful in their part of the programme as
the managers were in securing the fastest
and best men. There is no question but
that the meet will be handled in a way
that will be surprising to the local en-
thusiasts. Heretofore the meets have
been long-drawn-out affairs, but this one
promises to be over long before midnight.
The officials are well known in athletic
circles. James Sullivan, of the knicker-
booker Athletic Club, will act as referee
He has long served in this capacity
throughout New England and is well
thought of. Ben Ostheus will come down
from Boston 10 act as clerk of course.
has no equal in the country. He has
been very successful this year in handling
large meets and has closed them all in
manner that was pleasing as well as sur
prising to all.
The hall has been arranged so as to
comfortably seat $500. There will be
standing room for about 500. and from
III indications the hall viii be taxed to
its Limit. The tickets are selling very
rapidly and the management has no fears
now but that it VIII come out with flying
