QUAKER RELAY RACES
Absence of Cornell in Four
Mile Event Robs the Race
of Interest.

Athletic enthusiasts from all parts of the
east are anXiously awaiting the annual re-
lay carnival and open handicap events,
which will be held under the auspices of the
University of Pennsylvania next Saturday
afternoon at Franklin Field. The entries
for the relays include representatives Of
fifty colleges, forty grammar schools and
over one hundred preparatory and high
schools. The races VIII be of higher quail
ity this year, indicated by the character
of the entries

the Chicago and Michigan University teams.
which will meet the stars of the eastern col
leges. The Michigan men are again picked
to win the four-mile relay, although they
will have to travel fast to beat the Yale
team. The westerners should get fair
share of the minor hOnOrS in the open haUdi-
ca p events, as they have a number of crack
short distance runners and weight throwers
in their squad. The Chicago men are in
hopes of winning the one-mile relay. and
1t is said that the individual members of the
team Lave run the quarter" in O.50 fiat.
The Wolverines are going into the games
on "A larger scale than ever before y Spe-
cal meet was held last week with tryoutS
al each event, and all the men who showed
signs of winning point will be taken to
Philadelphia. Heretofore Michigan has only
taken the stars of the team to Philadelphia
and has not relied on winning points IN the
minor places. The pole vault, shotput
broad jump and sprints are the events in
which the Michigan boys should show up
well.
Michigans strength in the broad jump lies
in French a freshman, who won the Michi-
gan interscholastiC event with 81 feet 4
inches. The Wolverines have been fortu-
nate in securing good freshmen athletes and
in the coming games the new men are ex-
pected to capture most of the honors.

sent Michigan in the hurdles. The for

Ball Contests.

The Corcoran Cadets basket ball team
has won the championship of the National
Guard Athletic Association for the season
of 19O4-C5. Sixteen games were played, the
Corcorans winning every game in the sche-
dule. They also carried off the hOnors
in individual goal throwing. Rice having
a record Of thirty-three goals in one game
and a total of 100 for the season. This
team has won the championship of the
National Guard for the past three seasons
and also the championship of the south for
the seasons of l90l-19O2 and 19O3-19O4 The
local boys will meet the Defenders of Bal
umore for the championship of the south

ard of past years as there are few good
half milers in college. Greene, Shaw. Hy-
man and Taylor make up the quartet for
the one-mile team. The four-mile team
will consist of Terry Leary, Jones and
McCurdy
In the special events Pennsylvania will
have a number of entries and should make
a good showing. Captain Boyd will enter
the shotput; Moffett and Mcdonald the
high jump; Weede and Greene, the broad
jump; Dear the sprints, and Amsler. Lig-
gett and Thayer, the hurdles. With good
distance man and hammer thrower the
Quakers would have fine chance to win
the intercollegiates
The withdrawal of the Cornell team from
the four-mile relay will rob this event Of
a great deal of interest but ii is ex-
pected that the Ellis will make it very In
teresting for the Wolverines in this race.
From present indications it would appear
that the record is due to take a slide in the
one-mie event. 1t is a toss up a. to which
team will win, as Yale, Pennsylvania and
Chicago each has fast quarter milers. The
Quakers have a slight call on the event
however, as they have J. B. Taylor, the IN
tercollegiate record holder, as the anchor
of their team. Yale has a strong quartet
which will make the other competitors hus-
tie to win.
The Yale two-mile team should annex this
event, as they are in the best of form at
the present time, having recently established
q new record for the distance. The real
strength of the Michigan team is not known
but the Wolverines are very confident and
claim that they Will sweep the boards.

RACE FOR KAISER'S CUP.
Crews Busy on the Eight American
Yachts Entered

Only nineteen working days are left in
which to fit out the eleven yachts entered
for the ocean race for the kaiser's cup,
which begins at . O'Clock on the afternoon
of May 13 off Sandy Hook lightship. There
is much to be done before they will all be
ready to cross the line, says the New York
Tribune. The crews of the eight American
yachts are all on board their respective
craft, rapidly putting them in fighting trim.
while the three foreigners-the English ship
Nalhalla, Lord Brassey's schooner Sun
beam and the German entry, the schooner
Hamburg-are on their way across the
ocean, giving their crews some valuable
sea experience in handling the yachts.
Although DR.. StimSons schooner Fleur-
de-Iys is the smallest of the American
yachts entered, many think she will give
a good account of herself on the passage,
for she is commanded by Capt. Tom" Bob
lin, regarded as one of the most daring
shippers that ever sailed out of GlouceS-
ter in a fisherman. 1t is said of him that
he never lost race from the Grand Banks
to Gloucester. With a crew partly COM
posed of some of his oid-time sailor men.
it is expected he will drive the Fleur- de-
Lys night and day. making her carry every
stitch of canvas that her spars Will stand.
The fact that he has ordered a fisherman s

of the rigid one usually carried, shows that
