BOARD Of TRADE PLANS
FOR ATHLETIC FEATURES
Variety Of Events Arranged for An
nual Shadbake at Chesapeake
Beach.

Opportunity to indulge all varieties and
subvarities of athletic and near-ath-
letic prowess is to be offered the men,
bers of the Board of Trade at their ap-
preaching annual shadbake, judging from
the list of events submitted last night
by Chairman Otney W. Stratton of the
athletic committee to the full commit
tee of arrangements, and approved by
the latter.
1t has been the aim, it is pointed out,
to keep the events of such a nature that
the average out training tired busl-
ness man will not be at the mercy of a
few young and iissome spirits who can
run. jump and hurl weights as easily as
most men board street cars. Besides the
usual ball game, and, probably. reg
ular sprint or two. there will be a CEN
tipede race a backward race, a wheel
barrow race, pigback race, duck walk
three-legged race, lead frog race,
bymkhana race. and that grand old
standby, the fat mems race, for those
scaling 200 pounds and more.
One Prize Per Man, the Rule.
A further event for the guests Of the
occasion Is to be decided upon at a meet
ing to be held some day next week. One
prize per man is to be the rule; when
man has won one prize he is not eligible
to receive a second. There will be. it is
announced, a number of consolation
prizes offered in conjunction with the
regular prizes.
The committee on arrangements has
decided to have the band not only go
down to Chesapeake Beach with the
first contingent, but to furnish music
even while the train Is being boarded.
