RELAY RACE WILL Be
feature Of GAMES
Eighteen Events Are Listed for Teams.
Championship High School
Race Scheduled.

At least eighteen relay races will be
on the Georgetown program for theiI
big track and field games on the 2Ttl
OF this month. These will range from
colleges, clubs and prep and high
schools to grade school boys and mid
get relays. Manager Curry intends
that the meet shall start promptly at
7:30. and the officials have been in
structed to run the events off promptly.
This will insure the games from run
ming over their scheduled time and
Offset the number of entries that would
otherwise make this task difficult
one.
In the interests of the undergradu-
ates an inter-department relay has
been carded and also a class race in
the law department. Another race of
somewhat similar sort is the relay
for the different fraternities of the
professional schools.
The scholastic race of the evening
that will no doubt create the most
local interest and have the schoolboys
cheering for their teams will occur
when Johnny McHuGh sends the boys
from the mark in the championship
high school relay race. 1t has been
some time since the high schools have
been brought together in a mile event.
and close competition is assured, as all
are out for the individual cups and
the school cup that is offered for the
winner of the event.
Marshall Low, the junior national
champion high jumper. says that he
will make a great try to break the
indoor record in the championship high
jump on the night of the meet. Low
has been consistent at five feet eleven
inches. and so his claims stand a good
chance of materialiZinE.
The Georgetown team was given
great send-off by the students last
night when they set out on their
Northern invasion.
