come off IN the near future, and II rs
necessary to prepare for Il also.
Lists OF probable entries for the meets,
must be made public by all schools
not later than Saturday Of this week
in order that any p0ssib4e protests
may be flied, and therefore it is
necessary to pick the men who will
the part at once.
In the Punahou inter-class meet the
Seniors, Freshmen and Prep. students
are to unite their efforts against the
Juniors and Sophomore From the
standpoint of numbers the Seniors
Parliamentary. have far the best
showing but from the standpoint OF
athletic prowess the JuniorSOpho-
mores stand well to, the front. The
best spr1nters, weight men, discus and
javeIin tirowers are IN the ranks Of
the latter, but the distance runners,
high and broad jumpers and pole
vaulters belong to the Senior Fresh
men-Prep faction. Both sides are
very evenly matched, however, and 1t
would be hard to say which will win
The greatest rivalry in athletics has
always existed between the Seniors
and Juniors and the Sophomores and
Freshmen and as these rivals are now
allied against each other there are
apt to be some very good results from
the attempts to Guido each other
The Prep. does not figure as a very
important factor in the meet, but 1t is
possible that some good material may
come from that source.
The meet rs to consist of eleven
events which viii BE run off as fol-
lows:
1. 100-Yard Dash.
2. 220-Yard Dash.
3. 220-Yard Hurdle Race.

6. Running Broad Jump.
4. SHOT Put.

3. Pole Vault.

These events will be run off as |
rapidly as. possible and from among

the A. A. u. and Cornell meets will |
be chosen Those chosen for the big
meets will then 60 into hard training
for the remaining days until the A. A. |
u. affair.
Punahou Keen
Punahou Is working hard on track |
this year and may find that hard |
work is extremely necessary to win in I
the big meets. Kamehameha has q |
strong track squad and for the Cor.
nell meet already has eight points /
the best of Punahon. annexed by win
ming first place in the cross-couHtry.
In the A. A. U. meet, Punahou has q /
little better chance to run off with |
the laurels as the teams will all be /
breaking even, and many Of the Puma
hou alumni who will represent the
PuHahou team In that meet are |
splendid athletes who have won many /
first places and are still in the game
as good as ever
The inter-class meet will be started
at $3.50 tomorrow afternoon. Many OF
the Punahou athletes are. record
breakers and first place winners, and
some good work is to be expected
from them, both in this preliminary
meet and in the big events. There
are also new men turning out this
year who have not yet been tried and
II is possible that some good results
win be obtained
