10 several Of tho schools and their work
IA being carefully watched by the physical
directors. The gymnasiums are alive with
the youngsters every afternoon and never
befoIs In the history Of the association has
such hard training been done. This con
he accounted for by the rivalry that has
snrlnp I'M among the schools, and every
one Of them will make a bold bid for the
honors.
The intention TO do away with the one-
third and one-mile bicycle events has. caused
considerable discussion in local circles.
A loud protest has arisen from the schools
supporting riders and II Is not at all unlikely
that a hard fight will be made to retain
the events on the regular calendar Of sports.
The taking up Of the board track at Berkeley
Oval has caused the Constitution Committee
to take this stand in regard to the bicycle
races. 1t advises the substitution OF two
and ;hree-mile runs for the bicycle races.
The matter will be brought up at the Feb
uary meeting and q lively debate Is looked
for.
Yale University athletic leaders are
perfecting plans 70 form, under the auspices
Of the university, the largest intercollegiate
track athletic association in the East.
This association is TO comprise preparatory
schools and TO be known as the Yale Uni
versity Interscholastic Track Athletic Assoc
citation. The projectors Of the plan have
for a central idea the revival OF track ath-
letics In the East in fitting schools, and are
prepared TO aid the schools which join the
new association in every way calculated
10 bring track athletics to a high devel-
opment. The action Of the Yale leaders
practically does away with the ~organiza-
ton OF the proposed New York State Inter-
scholastic Athletic Association.
The schools which are to receive invita-
tons 10 become members Of the associa-
tion include tho academies. high schools,
private tutoring establishments and a few
schools Of southern New England, southern
New York, New Jersey and perhaps east
ern Pennsylvania. Among the schools
which have expressed a wish to join are:
.Andover, Exeter, L~awrenceville, Hotchkise,
Taft, Hill School and a number Of the high
schools Of the larger cities Of Massachu-
sets and Connecticut: also. New York city.
