TROPHIES To

At the annual field meet of the

which will be held at Red Bank MAY

be well represented and a few troph-
les will most likely be brought back
from the meet. The following are
entered from the local school:
Pickersgill, in the one mile run.
Mullen, in the one mile run.
WOglom, in the boad jump, 100
yard dash and 220 yard dash.
Mccormick, in the 440, relay,
broad jump and shot put.
Roessler, in the relay.
Pierson, in the relay, 100 yard and
220 yard dashes.
Toolin will enter the relay and
440.
Schwartz will take part in the 220,
high jump, shot put, 220 hurdles and
probably the relay.
Williams will enter the 220 yard.
The most desired victory in the
field meet at Red Bank is the 440 in
which it is hoped Mccormick will be
the victor. For the last few times
Mac" has always had the same op-
ponents and he always was beaten,
but at the rate he has been travel
ling in the events that he has already
taken part in, he should be an easy
victor. The team will probably go to
Red Bank in automobiles.
