Meet Tomorrow
Meet Tomorrow.

Definite announcement has been
made by Physical Director B. H.
Robbins of the Fargo high school
that the Fargo high school
would send track team to Grand
Forks to participate in the field meet
to be held under the auspices of the
University of North Dakota next
Saturday. The team will leave Fargo
this morning in order to take part
in the trials this morning and
afternoon.
The team that will represent the
local high school next Saturday will
be smaller than in former years, and
but four men, excepting Coach Rob-
fins, will be taken. The inclement
weather this spring has made it al
most impossible to develop new ma
terial that could compete with veteran
athletes.
The local athletes that will make
the trip are Duerner, Burns, GRADER
and Barosky. All are experienced
field men, and should connect for a
good score in the points.
The four men will compose the re-
lay team to represent the local high
school Dnerner will also compete in
the dashes, and the pole vault Burns
will enter the idashes and jumps;
GRADER will JOIN in the quarter and
hals-n,ile events and pole vault, and
Barosky will afficiate in the low hur-
dies. and handle the weights. The
exact events in which the men will
be entered will not be decided upon
until after the trials.
