have gone the other fifty yards of the

was no other man who ran the trials

1t Is said that Virginia has a fas
ter four this year than 1t has put out
In many seasons. but the one thing
that Is going to give the Charlottes-
vile team the advantage over George
town is the fact that the training
down there is done on board track,

fact that the candidates. for the Viz

there Is even more difficulty for a run
