 ATHLETIC SUMMARIES.
 The athletic events at this years fair were easily the biggest and most interesting of any year. The first days events, run under the A. A. U sanction, drew the largest amount of interest of course, yet the local events run the second day, came near being on par with them. The mile relay race was the biggest thing on the | first days program. It aroused a lot of attention because besides the silver | cups offered for the first three teams, the Hall trophy was being raced for. The New Haven relay team took this l event again this year, so they are the sole owners of this cup. New Haven, it seems, sent a crowd of athletes up here who were bent on taking home the bacon. That they did this little thing can be seen by the number of cups they captured. Stafford's boys were close second all the way through both in the number of points made and in the number of cups won. | In the 100 yard dash the finish was a very close One-SO close in fact, that there was a hot discussion before the judges decided that Roche of New Haven had won over Comins of this place. All the other events were also warmly contested. On the second day the cups offered for the various events drew large fields. In the end the A. O. H. had won the most points but the high school lads were close on their heels. Inthe half mile run the first five positions were filled by high school youngsters though many older lads were in the race. On the whole the athletic events this year were a success and should pave the way for more in future years. Summaries:
