VIRGINIA TRIANGULAR MEET
Georgetown and Carlisle to Be Guests
of Southerners,

Charlottesville will be the scene of
big triangular outdoor athletic meet
some time around May 1, the exact date
not being definitely settled as yet. The
three schools to take part are Virginia,
Georgetown and the Carlisle Indians. A
letter inviting the Blue and Gray was
received yesterday by Manager Corcoran,
and he says that he will surely send
team there.
One Of the features Of the games will
be the temperance of Jimmy Rector.
champion of America for the hundred,
who will represent the Orange and Blue
in the dashes. Tewanina, another famous
cinder path man. will do the distance
stunts for the Indians. Tom Smith of
Georgetown and the N. Y. A. c. will make
it warm for Martin. the southern lad who
holds the indoor low hurdle record for
100 yards
In order to get all the best men in the
institution out for the team to go to
Charlottesville the Georgetownians will
hold monster class meet on Georgetown
Field some time in April or. should 1t be
decided to hold a dual set of games with
some other school, on the Saturday be-
fore Easter. the interclass meet to be
held the last of March. That there is
plenty of good talent in the Hilltop school
is well known, but the trouble has always
been in getting them out. 1t Is thought
however, that a set of class contests will
serve the purpose, since class spirit is at
high pitch just now. Then, too, the fact
that victory over Virginia is at stake
will do more than a little toward getting
out some of the men.

GEORGETOWN'S MEET
University, Prep and High Schools
and Athletic Clubs to Compete.

The list of relay races for the George
town inaugural meet of March g. which
was given out yesterday by Manager
Corcoran, contains some of the best teams
in the United States. With the ex-
ception of the ale-Princeton event all
the other big matches between varsity
uuartets have been settled. There are
ave of these: Cornell-Pennsylvania, Car
lisle-Johns Hopkins, Villanova-Cathoic
University, Northumberland College
and Virginia. Yale is will
ing to meet the Tigers and the contest
will probably come off, but cannot be
definitely programmed until after a con-
ference between the local manager and
the leader of the Tigers. which will be
held this morning.
There are to be three scholastic relay
events, one open to the senior high school
teams of Washington and vicinity and
the other for the junior tours. The third
is specially arranged to determine the
interScholaStic championship of the
south. 1t will be between the winners
of the Episcopal oodberry battle and
the Georgetown Prep Western-Tech- BUSH
ness race, both of which came off in the
federal games last night.
The regimental relay race will prac-
tically be an intercity affair. the three
competing Quartets hailing from the three
rival cities of this section of the country.
They are the Baltimore 9th Regiment,
the Richmond Howitzers and the local
National Guard. With rivalry aroused
both club teams and city teams, this
event should be a warm one
There will be both junior and q senior
race for athletic clubs. These should at
tract a lot of entries and no doubt will,
inquiries have been received from six
different associations already, viz: The
Gurley y. G., the Bloomingdales the Me-
mortal \. c.. the Muculloughs of Balti-
more, the Potomacs and the Mercury
a. c.
A special race has been put on for
four local teams, two of which are bit
ter rivals. The Bureau of Engraving
the American Security and Trust Com
pany, the Riggs Bank and the Union
Trust Company constitute the list
The proposed three-mile race between
a trio of famous distance men is still
hanging fire. Tewanina. the aborsine
from Carlisle who ran i'll the Olympic
Marathon at London, will surely be here.
but settlement has been made with
the other two these being Tom Collins.
the national indoor champion for that
distance, and Driscoll, Il crack from New
York city. If this match is brought about
it will prove one of the most attractive
and interesting Of the evening.
From inquiries received from people in
other cities concerning the reservations
of seats it is plain that record -breaking
crowd will witness the games The dia-
gram will be placed at Hickman &
can be purchased and seats secured.
