ON THE TRACK
Hopes for Permanent Possession
of Trophy This Season

Philadelphia, Jan S.-With the pass
/ ing of the holidays season the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania track authorities
began their campaign to develop a
team that would retain the track and
field championship in 1914. and Incl
dentally win permanent possession of
the $1,000 trophy cup offered by the l.
{. \. \. \. \. to the team first win
ming it five times. DR.. George w. or
ton, the new coach. issued call for
track candidates and more than 900
! men responded.
The Quakers have an unusually fine
collection of 1913 point winners. These
include Capt McCurdN who won the
] two-mile run; Lippincott. winner of
! the 22O- yard dash and third i'm the
! 1907 yard dash: Patterson, winner of
! the 100 yard dash and fOuth i'm the 40
| yard dash, ana Madeira, fourth in the
mile run. This gives Pennsylvania a
nucleus of men who scored 1872 of
their ~. points last May The only
man lost is Roy Mercer, winner OF the
running broad jump,
Assuming that the present point
| winners can retain the points they
scored last year the men ought 10
much more than make good the points
lost by the graduation OF Mercer. The
most notable of the new men is Mere

! holder of the worlds half-milc record.
Meredith will concentrate on the quar-
ier and hslf-mile runs. though il is a
question whether he will be able to run
in both. At any rate he ought to be a
sur" winner of whichever event he
starts in.
Two other men of exceptional prom
! Use are Kelly, a broad jumper and low
hurdlcr, and Lockwood, a sprinter. KEEL
y has run the uu1rtcr-milc in 30 sec

With 10 seconds for the 100 Yards and

performer. There is a Greek by the

With personal audience of 5000

he would draw to New Yorks home

years. ON The road he is the greatest
