In popularity and membership in
eastern college circles. Started in
the middle west, about a year ago,
the plan and objects of the fraternity
have gained adllerents in all parts
Of tho country. The tests are de-
signed to strike a balance between
the events most common to American
university athletics. The list was
framed by the athletic directors at
leading American universities, tho
idea spreading from Indiana Univer-
sity, but receiving prompt response

any sport shall count for the test in
that sport. That is; membership on
tho college football team will abolish
the need of competition i'm the foot

include ~ alI-around athletic tests,
as follows:
l0O-yard dash, II 80 seconds; 100.
