Local schools will be heavily repre-
scented in the interscholastic track and
field games to be held at the Maryland
Agricultural College Saturday. All the
high schools will be In competition and
several of the preparatory institutions.
Central High, Technical and Western
will have more men wearing their col
ors than any other schools. The first
mentioned will have squad of twenty
three men. while the other two are to
be represented by just about the same
number. Eastern High has placed nine
men in the meet. while the Friends
School will be In competition for the
first time. ST. Adams has sent in en-
tries for larger squad than ever be-
fore.
Last year Catholic University. Gallau-
Diet and George Washington were invited
to enter the intercollegiate events. but
objections from the other state colleges
interposed against that this spring.
The collegiate contests are listed for the
state championship. and it was held.
very rightly. that only colleges within
the state should be allowed to take
part. Mount St Marys. Western Mary
land and st. Johns will battle for title
honorS with NJ. A. G. This is the first
time Mount st. Mary's has been repre-
scented, it having entered squad or ten.
Tome Institute is more heavily repre-
scented this year than in any OF the
previous meets 1t has placed fourteen
men on the list as the squad 1t Will bring
down. The Frederick High School has
sent in entries for nineteen, while the
other high schools throughout Maryland
are showing greater interest in the
games. The class of events for the county
high schools Of Maryland have many
more entries than usual while the open
interscholastics and Intercollegiate also
will be of greater magnitude as regards
number of entries.
1t is probable that the competition in all
the events will be just hard as last
year. The Baltimore City College. Bal
timore Polytechnic Institute, Tome lnsti-
tute. Central High, Western High and st
Adams have more than dozen men each
entered, and their work should be bril-
liant Last year these schools put up
the most remarkable fight for the open

More than dozen high schools will
contest In the county school class, whereas
only seven or eight have heretofore taken
part. 1t looks very much as If the entry
last, when it exceeded the lists of other
all southern meets. Last spring there
were more than twelve hundred entries
Central High School should indeed feel
proud of the achievement of its relay
team last Saturday. That the Blue and
White won the high school championship
at the Penn games is now well known. but
the performance deserves more than the
ordinary commentator.
Last winter, just after a relay race at
the Hopkins meet, comment was made
In this column that Central had the
best high school relay team ever devel-
oped here. and one of the fastest in the
country. 1t was predicted then that
Central would make a record of ex-
ceding noteworthiness before the end
of the year. and Saturday it made good.

But notwithstanding this statement

that their losses threaten to exceed

Dave F'ultz had a meeting with the
Washington players Saturday and.
Judging from the remarks which fioated
around the lobby OF the hotel after the
session was over, there is not much
chance of the players following any Or
der TO strike if that should be Fuitz $
edict. The ball players realize that
present conditions in base ball are not
of the best. With some 500 players out
of jobs because of conditions IN the
minors and limits In the majors. there
is not a chance for strike. and Fultz
probably knows this. and SO is not apt
to make any trouble simply because
the national commission has refused to
grant any further concessions to the
fraternity.
Griffith expects to make special eff
fort to win a majority of the games of
the four-game series which the Ath-
letics play in Washington. beginning
Tuesday. He will work tooth and nail
setback. and is confident that the old
hoodoo which that team has held over
the Nationals will be dispelled.
After those four games the Nationals
go on a months trip and they will need
as good lead in victories as 1t is pos
sible to get before they start.

the outfielders at present has an aver
age Of nearly 500. and that is why the
Tigers are setting a warm pace. Nor
is there apt to be a protracted slump
this year, for Jennings appears to be
better fortified with twirlers than he
has been in several seasons.
On the other hand, Boston appears to
be shy in this respect. Leonard is far
from being in form. Joe Wood and

The showing of the University Of vir-
ginia at the relays was a little disap-
pointing, though the event it was in
was run in very fast time. Holy Cross
won the race in S.26. which is too fast
for any four in this section. Virginia
ran fourth. The time made by the vic
tors in this event was an average Of
sly seconds for the quarter. and there
are not more than one or two lndivld-
uals in the entire south who can cover
the distance in that time. let alone four
in one institution.
No other section in the country was
able to furnish as many relay successes

ANEW RESPECT FOR THE ENEMY.

Early IN the war 1t was apparent at glance
that the newspapers of the various belligerent
nations were striving to Guido themselves and
each other in heaping opprobrium on the en-
envy. This ignobIe malice took the frequent
form Of disparaging the fighting qualities of
the other side.
A change is beginning to come over the
press of Europe British, French, German and
Russian newspapers now often commend the
bravery and endurance asfwell as the military
qualities of hostile soldiery. Bitter war has
bred respect
The Lokal Anzeiger of Berlin discusses the
fighting qualities of the Allied armies. Ac-
cording to Reuter- translations it considers the
Walloons to be of slight military value but says
that the Flemish regiments have proved them
selves to be worthy descendants of their ances-
tors who mon the victories of Egmont and Will
ham of Grange.
Great Britain S efforts, - it adds, although
accompanied of course by bluff regarding the
creating of big army, proves will to conquer
which we honor in an enemy
The French soldiers, the Lokal Anzeiger says,
have proved surprise. I'VE have SEEM it
proceeds, sslittle of the supposedly French the
atrical heroism and reckless Drawing of every
danger. On the contrary they have displayed
estimable and praiseworthy military qualities.
Their field artillery consists of good guns and
performs excellent work and at their head
stands an army commander who, though he has
won no decisive victory, has secured a name in
the list of most famous generals.
The Russians, the critic said, had displayed
an unexpected capacity to utilize the terrain
and an accuracy in artillery. THE fact that
we found none of the $4,000 enemy wounded in
LODI, they all having been removed in good
time and transported to Warsaw and the fur
ther fact that after we compelled them to re-
treat they offered such a stubborn defense are
proofs that the Russian command has learned
much from celebrated retreats of Kuropatkin
in Manchuria. ?
