BY n. r. wORLEY.

An invitation will be issued to the
Washington high schools TO send their
track teams to the spring meet of the
University of Virginia, which Will De

April.
This decision was reached recently
after a lengthy conference on the part
of the Virginia authorities.
The spring meet at CharlottesFlile

A heavy rain last night softened up
the field so that morning practice had
tn be called off and on account of the
fish fry the session this afternoon lasted
only two hours. This morning 1t ap-
peared that the squad would not be able
to go on the field at all to-day, but hot
sun got on the job at 10 o'clock, and by
O'Clock the field was hard and dry.
There was no game, however. 1t was
one OF the hottest afternoons the Giants
have vet experienced. and when McGraw
told the men to run around the big park
to test their bellows they discovered that
twice around was enough and three times
nIenty. The rest of the session was taken
up with the usual batting and fielding
exercises.
