Want AUTOS FOR
The RELAY RACE
FOR THE RELAY
BETWEEN GRAND FORKS AND
FARGO PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
ENTRY LIST NOW OPEN AT Y
M. G. A.

Arrangements for the big relay race
of the boys departments of the Grand
Forks and Fargo Young Mems Chris
tian associations are now almost COM
pleted. After lengthy correspondence
and many long distance conferences
the details are rapidly being whiprec
into shape and everything is progtess-
ing nicely.
A detail finally settled yesterday
was to fix the age limit at 10 years,
that is, all boys who have not passed
the age of 19 and are members of the
Y. M. G. A., are eligible. It was also
decided to run about 100 boys by each
team. Fargo would like to run more
boys than this, but as the number of
eligibles at Grand Forks is less than
in Fargo. 1t is probable that the num-
ber on each team will not be over 100
The present plan is to have all the
classes of the boys department Iep-
resented, and to have six boys under
IL, thirty five boys from IL to IA, aud
fifty three boys from Ia to 10.
Entries Opened Today.
The entries are open at the Y. M. c..
A. at the present time. Each boy who
is put on the team must first pass the
heart and lung test with the physical
director of the Y. M. c. A., to make
sure that he is physically able to make
the run.
Every member of the relay team
must be a member of the Y. M. c. A,
but boys who are not members Of the
association and wish to get into the
race may do SO by joining before June
12, IL they are physically fit All en-
tries will close on June IL.
Autos Are Needed.
The boys will be distributed along
the route by automobiles and for this
purpose twenty autos will be needed.
Grand Forks has already secured the
promise of this number and Fargo
should have no difficulty in securing a
like number Persons who wish to
volunteer the use of an auto for the
race should communicate with Secre-
tary Goodrich of the boys department
of the Y M. G. A.
Prior to the race the road will be
staked out so that the boys can be
readily distributed on the day of the
race.
Fargo Boys in Training.
A number of the boys who are mem
bers of the Fargo Y. M. G. A. are al
ready in training for the event and
no boy will be allowed to participate
who is not in first-class condition, with
muscles and wind trained. The regu-
lar classes at the Y. M C. A. are now
mostly devoted to getting in shape for
this run. Track work both indoor and
outdoor is almost the only work being
done.
This race should mean good deal
for the two towns and the two asso-
Citations The fact that IL is conpeti-
ton will arouse interest. II cannot
help but appeal to the boys Of the as
gociation and as last athletic effort
for the year will be well worth the day
put in.
