| entries for the meet at Baltimore, but
it will send over good squad for the
trials today and expects to qualify sew
eral men for the finals tomorrow. The
squad will be headed by Eddie Stebbins

upon as the main probable point-get-
tiers for their school. 1t will be some
what weakened. it Is said. in compari-
son to that which won the Blue and
! Gray meet late in February, but ought
ito make a good showing.
| Catholic University has entered
many men. it being represented for
the first time. Several of the men who
are to wear the colors of the Brook
| land institution this afternoon should
| have not the least trouble in oualify-
| ing for the finals, and at least one man
! looks to be certain winner
reno IS DOING splendid work in the
dashes. while Hyde is running the half
mile in better form than he has ever
! SHOWN before. 1t is practically certain
that Rutledge. the former New York
| Athietlc Club pole vaulter. will win the
I vault, as there is not another man in the
south that do as well as he has been
| doing In practice for the last week or so.
Rutledge cleared the bar the other day
at IL feet 10 inches, which is about a
| foot better than any other man is likely
| TO do. with one possible exception Rut-
ledge also went u feet 10 inches in the
| broad jump.
George Washington probably will have
one man In the running who should do
well, Conner having shown such form in
| the mile in the indoor meets as wouId in
dlcate superiority over the others in that
event If he is in good shape he probably
will win.

carter Will again be the mainstays of the
ST. Adams team and unless some much
| better men than are known in this sec
ton take part in the events they will
come near scoring enough points to win
| for that school.
| Central High is likely to make better
showing than it did at NJ. A C. The Blue
| and White is not very strong in the 100
YARD dash. but In the other events, with
| the exception of the mile it is pretty
sure to give the various other institu-
tions hard fight for the team trophy
Also Tome Institute will cut bigger
ng ;, In the gathering Of points. 1t
will have its men in the other events
who scored points at NJ A. C.. and
! besides. Hornsby, who did nothing in

Central Presbyterian had an easy
time winning from Whitney Avenue in
! the Northwest sunday School circuit
| taking the long end of a IS to score
The poor hitting Of Whitney Avenue
prevented 1t scoring more runs, as it
| connected for but one safety. The Cen
| trail nine was the much better com

! The game in the Home Club Lea que
| between the Bureau of Mines and the
| Indian Office also proved a walkaway
for one of the clubs. the Bureau taking
| the big end of II to score Both

| lowed their opponents to get men on
| the bases and score almost as often
as they pleased.
