Sports of some kind now have a place
in every school in the islands, whether it
be in a provincial center or in an isolated
village. The bureau of education takes
official cogniZance of sports and many
officials give prizes. Every province has
a scholastic meet, where the various
events are conducted just as they are in
this country and under the same amateur
rules. There are also interscholaStic
meets where a hundred or more native
athletes compete, such as in the Eisayan
meet. the Bicol meet and those of north
ern and southern Luzon and Manila. The
elimination of the season is the ath-
letic tournament held in Manila every
February in conjunction with the famous
Manila carnival. where the athletes and
their American instructors gather from
every part of the islands This tourna-
men< not only interests Filpinos, but is
one of the big events of the carnival.
