The programme will include work on
the flying rings, the side horse, in turn-
bling and with the Indian clubs. There
will be several fencing bouts between
the leading fencers of Yale, and an
event of exceptional interest will be the
wrestling match between Instructor

weight of America, and Professor
Charles W. Mayser, formerly of Yale
and now at the head of athletics at

men are evenly matched
