BATES TRACK TEAM
Breaks Training After a Rather Disap.
pointing Season.

Lewiston, Me, May 18-(Specian,-
Bates track men broke training TODAY
after comparatively Unsuccessful
season for there Were hopes of their
getting more than tho % points that
they took last year 1t is safe to saw
that had Rosworth been present the
other five points would have been Sc
cured. Only four Bates men won their
BIS this season, Schumacher French.
Fraser and Williams; each of these
men had won the letter last year
1t would seem that prospects for
next year are rather poor since Will
liams Will be the only man in college
who can be depended upon to win
points However. there is lots of con-
tidence here that Leavtt, Wittikind
Pelietier and Elwood will be heard
from next season.
Bates had been depending upon
Wittikind to take place in the quar-
ter-mile since he has several times
ran that event in fast time but a bad
ankle and recent attack of german
measles left him in rather poor con-
dition, and then Irish who won the
half-mile last year was unable to get
into good condition this season. Both
of these men have the goods to show
up Well next year.

B0WDo|N ENTRIES FOR
INTERCOLLEGIATE MEET.

Brunswick, Me, May 1S.-(SpeciaD.
The annual meet Of the New Eng
land Intercollegiate Athletic Associa-
ton will be held this year at Tech
nology field, Brookline, Mass, on May
% and %. Eleven New England col
leges, which are members of the as
ISOLATION will be represented.
In the early meets this season many
of the New England teams have
shown great ability and the meet this
year promises to be q closer fight than
it has been for a long time.
Dartmouth, which has won the meet
for the last two years. is the general
favorite for the coming contest. The
other colleges that are expected t"
stand high are Amherst, Massachu-
sets Institute of Technology, Brown
and Williams and since the Maine In
tercollegiate meet last Saturday in
which BOWdoin men broke several rec
ords it is expected that Rowdoin will
make a good showing in the New Eng
land meet.
BY special arrangement this year all
the elimination trials except the semi
finals in the 1OO-yard dash and the
l2o-yard hurdles will be run on Fri
day. thus doing away with the neces-
slty of trial heats on the following
day.
This meet has previously been held
on Worcester Oval The association,
however. this year decided it would be
best to change to the Boston track
The Technology field contains a tract,
OF four laps to the mile, with 800
yard straight-away. Extra stands will
be erected at the time of the meet for
the accommodation of spectators.

Prospects look bright for BoWdoin
to make a better showing this year at
the New England meet than for sew
eral years. Several records We're
broken in the Maine meet by Bowdoin
men In the 100-yard dash Captain
Atwood, who has been practically laid
up for about a week with a sprained
ankle is expected to win a place as
he doubtless will also in the go yard
dash
In the mile Goliath who broke the
Maine record Saturday is counted on
to make showing as he is expected
to do in the two-mile. Slocum is al
SO counted on in this event as both
he and Goliath beaf the Maine record
in the two-mile in Saturdays meet.
No one except one Tech man has done
anything that will approach Morrill,
in the shot-put. Morrill, won first
place in the shot-put last year. In
the other events also Bowdoin has a
good chance to make some showing
according to compared RECORDS with
the other colleges.
