Not More Than = Handful Of First Raters
-Nhiteley q Star.

The Princeton varsity track team will hay
generous preparation for the intercollegiate
games this year. Outside Of the Pennsyl
Vania relay carnival on April Is there will b,
three dual meets. Princeton is TO meet YAH
on May at New Haven. and on following
Saturdays Cornell at Princeton and Columbis
here in New York Only two men OF thosI
who won points for Princeton last year still
are in college. j, G. Atlee. the quarter miller
is captain OF the team and r. A. Gamble, tn,
| sprlnter, Ia out for the team. The Ddiil
/ PrincetonidH quotes A, +. COPELAND, the coach
OF the team. as saying that he thinks his pros
poets are very bright for developing a good
team, Whether that means dual meet teal
or an intercollegiate meet team Is not eG.
planned. They are very different things II
looks as II the latter we're meant.
Counting In Atlee and Gamble, there isn I
really great deal TO the Princeton team
outside OF two other men, Whteley and
Frantz, These two undoubtedly will make
I heir mark big and strong In the intercol-
leg late games. Whiteley, the lad who finished
fourth in the intercollegiate cross country
race, although he wasGery sick just before it
i regar ded by Coach COPELAND as the coming
half miller. lie had preparatory school
markOf better than minute 81 seconds, and
his sly le and action guarantee greater per-
forma noes when his physical strength Is
gr eater. Whiteley is young and is not as
strong yet as he should be, but he has all
the marks OF first rater.
FrantZ 10 a distance runner much sturdior
in physique than Whitley and ia becon ing
a hard man TO beat He is likely TO turn
below ten minutes for the distance, It s need
less to- say. How he will shape up along-
side OF Floyd, Rowe, the Michigan track
captain, who holds the intercollegiate rec
may be put n the mile but all his running
hitherto has been such as to ~ him for max
ing a good twOJniler.
