Dray Of Yale was regarded rs n sure winner;
but he il out OF the calculation now, because
Of his bad ankle. Grant of Harvard will
probably fight it out with entries from Cor
nell and Pennsylvania. II past perform

ought to be one, two, with Meissner well
up. But form is not much Of an element
in pole vaulting and the falls are many, in
the fgIrative sense. Pennsylvania has
Swain, who tied at II feet 8 inches with
Phillips at the relay games and has to be
considered. Allen Of Syracuse is a good
man who has been vaulting consistently.
Moore Of Princeton did close to II feet Q
inches in the relay games, and may yet be
heard from. All this while Johnny Ma ol,
up at Yale is struggling with O'Brien and
Gilbert and il likely TO do something with
them.
II generally is difficult to figure any
athletic meeting in ad unless the
, results can be anticipated 80 completely that
figuring is an absurdity. The very latest
glance at the situation sh ows Harvard
looming up strongly on the horizon and
threatening the prestige of Pennsylvania,
Cornell apparently will be in difficulties to
support it's newfound position of importance,
and for once it does not appear that Yale
il going to be n strong factor. Princeton
will count in several events and strong men
from Colgate, Syracuse, Swarthmore and
perhaps Amherst will account for individual
points here and there.
PENNSYLVANIA is going to be strong all
through the track events, especially so in
the 100, 2O and 44o yard runs. The Red
and Blue must be %reckoned with in the half
mile and mile. The Quakers will score in
the hurdles and high jump and in the pole
vault, but there Is no reason to expect
strength in much more; Harvard will send
| easily because the events are held right
in the home town Of the Crimson. There
will be a strong, well balanced team, and
Harvard will count through picking UP
many places, although the Crimson is able
to take some frsts according to the outlook,
Princeton will figure in the hurdles, broad
Jump and pole vault and probably in the
two mile run. Yale will nave to be counted
in the hammer throw. high n broad jumps
| and two mile run. Cornell will have general
strength, but will not stand out quite SO
much as last year:
Meantime there is a keen struggle going
on out West for the conference champion.
ship there. Stages team won last year,
but Keene Fitzpatrick has announced to
the Miohiganders that the contest is as
good as over right now and that Michigan
will win. Chicago is strong IN the middle
and long distances, especially with the
Olympic champion L~ightbody, II he is able
to compete. Eckersall will take care Of the
sprints and he is a mighty good man. Parry
is an admirable weight thrower and he is
likely to take the measure of Thomas OF
Purdue, the champion. Michigan has a
good feet Of %sprinters led by Annis and
Keller, In the quarter mile the Michigan
team is not so well off. Ramey, Coe, Ma
loney and Rowe are the distance runners
andwill get many places for Michigan.
Waller Of Wisconsin looks to be about
the hest quarter miller, and he will stack
up against Groman and Taylor of Chicago
In that event. Cha rles Parsons Of Wiscon-
sin, the national senior and junior cham
pion for the 100 yard run, ought to be heard
IRON in the sprints If he stil Is in college.
The Wisconsin men suffer from lack OF en-
perienced training this year, owing TO the
faot that they have lost KraenHlein, the
hurdler, who was at Wisconsin as a student
before he went to the University of Penn
%sylvania.
Werner of Purdue is to be figured on
the distance runs He. is a national cham
pion, too, hi ving won the five miles at
Portland.
