Boston. May S1.-If the elimination events tb.,
opened the thirty-second annual intercoIlegiat.
track and field games in the Harvard Stadium,
at Cambridge, to-day failed to disclose a prob.
able champion for the finals Tomorrow they ola
show that Yale is Unexpectedly strong in agl.
jumpers that Pennsylvania has some Aaa.
sprinters. that the newcomers from the Uni
versity of Michigan will be factors over the hur.
dies and in other events. and that Cornell muzt
win many points in the distance runs to retain
her title.
Close followers OF the sport seemed 10 feel to-
night that considering the men who qualified
the championship lay between Yale. Pennsv
yania. Cornell and Michigan, with the chance.
slightly in favor of Pennsylvania. Thirteen Yala
men qualified in nine out of the eleven events
which were run off during the afternoon. Cor
nell next with twelve men. but failed to ger
candidates in four OF the eleven events. AIch-
gan and Harvard qualified nine men in seven
events. and Pennsylvania had eight men in a
similar number OF trials.
Harvard is not regarded as dangerous for ths
championship. as scarcely any OF her men who
survived are regarded probable winners to-
morrow. on the other hand. the eight PennsyI-
vania men who came through all fast and
strong and her distance men also look formid-
able
one of the interesting developments Of tn,
trials the ability of the team from the Uni
yersity of Michigan, headed by Captain Garrels,
to qualify nine men against such wealth OF
athletes from eleven Eastern colleges.
There We're a number of stirring races to-day
and some interesting contests in the field events,
although the pole vault. usual. dragged out
Gntil nearly sunset. This contest raised Yales
hopes wonderfully no less than three blue
vaUlters cleared the high bar successfully. and
