Place.

The annual spring field meet Of the
Omaha grade schools will be held this
year out OF doors, contrary 10 the Gus.
tom In the past The date Of the meet
has been set for June and will be held
at Rourke park.
When the announcement was made
that the meet would be held In the open
q howl of delight went up as the boys
say they cannot work as well on an en-
closed track as they can outdoors. On
the indoor tracks the number OF entries
ID 80 large for each event that they
arc not given an equal chance, but the
races are run In heats. where the best
runners are often crowded out al the
outset and can't regain the lost ground in
time to come In among the leaders at
the finish.
Al Rourke park there ID no track
marked off. but Prof II. L. earns. d.
rector OF school athletics, will this week
measure II In order to determine how
many laps there will be to the mile and
set an idea OF what possibilities II offers
for outdoor track work., II is contcnded
by Mr.. earns that q track could be
marked off at the park which would
make but three laps 70 the mile.
Five Hundred TO Enter.
Upwards OF 500 boys will enter this
meet which win include all the track
and field events. The weight event will
be out OF the question. as the boys at
tending the grade schools are not strong
enough TO handle a shot well enough to
heave II, and stiil keep from strainina
themselves, II Is possible that an eight
pound shot may be introduced for the
larger boys to use.
The boys will be classed the same a
in the paat; that 10. In accordance with
their weight. Glass A will be boys weigh
Ing over io6 pounds; class 3, % to fo5;
class C, rs 10 o.; class d. under rs pounds.
Prof. earns Is training the boys al
ready for the meet and says when the
first sun is fired he will have q bunch
OF perfectly trained athletes TO compete
against each other. The workouts will
be all In the open air. with the exception
OF the field events. where the boys will
work out OF the Young MEMS Christian
association, and the various school and
athletic gymnasiurns in the city.
The meet will be similar TO that Of last
year and win be competitive between
the thirty-four grade schools. Cups and
medals will be awarded the boys and
trophy cup and banner will be awarded
the school taking first place. Gold. silver
and bronze badges will be awarded first
second and third place, respectively. 70
individuals. In the relay races cups will
DO awarded in some instances and pen
nants and banners In others. There viii
be one relay race Of one mile In which
all the schools will participate, and then
