"All in ALL declared Coach Tenney
this morning. the season was fully as
successful as we have ever had at the
Y. NJ. G. A. The number of records
broken and the number equaled are par
ticularly gratifying, while the interest
Of all y. NJ. c. A. members in the con-
tests was almost without precedent The
contests have had the result Of develop
ing some first-class talent out of which
a track team can now be constructed
that will prove to be formidable con-
testant against any one"
Coach Tenney intimated that he was
now engaged in building up such a track
team.
