Brunswick, Me, May 19-(SpeciaD =
All interest at Rowdoin now centers in
the New England Intercollegiate track
meet at Technology field, Brookline,
Mass, Friday and Saturday, May 2122
Last year Dartmouth took first place
with Bowdoin second. This year Dart
mouth is counting on winning again
and has been putting in much hard
work for the event Bowdoin has all
her last years point winners, all of the
Glass of 1910 and several other new
ones In the distance runs Slocum 10,
, who took the two-mile event last year
and broke the record in the Maine
meet last Saturday. is counted on to
make a showing; Goliath 10, who took
second in the mile last year and has
broken the mile record in the last two
Maine meets, is in fine condition. In
the $50 yard run Simmons 09, took sec
ond in the Maine meet in fast time and
in the 440 Morss 10, took third.
Both these men are training hard and
have chance to do something in the
New England meet. In the 100-yard
dash and the 800 Captain Atwood, who
was out last year on account of
sprained ankle, is in fine form and took
first places in the 100 and broad jump
at the Maine meet, and showed form
to do better still. Mckenney, a Fresh
man, took third place and is counted
on to do some fast work in the 100
and Cole ~, should get a place in the
go. Edwards 10 in the hurdles took
points at the New England meet last
year and is doing better work this year.
In the pole vault Deming 10, who took
a place last year and broke the Maine
| record this year with Burlingame ~,
and Burton '09, who tied for first place
at the Maine meet, and Warren 10,
who took place in the hammer throw
| last year and first place in the Maine
meet this year with Crosby 10, and
Hastings 10, in second and third places,
| all are working.
| Besides these Newman 10, first in the
shotput, Clifford 10, Mcfarland 10, in
| the broad jump, and Rowell 10, and
Stevens, Medic II, in the discus, all
| look like point winners If BoWdoin
cannot win out first place the stu
dents feel sure of at least repeating
| their performance of last year, with
few more points, by winning second
place. Following are Bowdoin's en-
