I'm Hard Training
For Penn RELAYS

Track activity at the College Of the
City of New York took on a new lease
Of life last week, when Coach Lionel
Mckenzie, who had been laid up for a
month with the FLU" returned to the
institution and took up the rens again.
The Lavender cinder path artists, who
had let up in their training somewhat
during the absence of the coach, are
putting in some hard ticks every day
on the stadium course in preparation
for the coming Penn relays.
The City College representation at
the Philadelphia races has been prac-
tically decided upon. Coach McKen-
zies choice for the mile relay will be
J. Ellsworth Lands, 10; Maxwell Ross,
90 James Rowan, '21, and Charles
Bisgier, 20. Lands has just returned
to college after overseas naval service.
He ran on two previous relay teams in
Philadelphia and was captain of the
Lavender barriers before he Joined the
colors.
The Heights institution will also be
represented by a freshman quartet
The plebe delegation will consist Of
Davis, Becker, Schaffer and Prereu.
Schafer is former interscholastic
star, having performed for Eastern
District High School.
In preparation for the Lavender
track season the St. Nicholas Heights
college has arranged a monster inter
class track meet. The games will be
held next Friday, and eleven events
will be contested. This is expected to
serve as a chief source for uncovering
material for the field events, in which
the Lavender is rather weak

Casting About for Park
With the bars up at Harrison Field.
1t Is question where the A. f. A. final
game VIII be played. Clarks Field,
East Newark. and Olympic Park, Pat
erson, are among the soccer fields
doubtless under consideration. To play
the game Mt either park would be man
ifestly unfair to the Bethlehem team.
Clark's Field is neither large enough
for title match nor has 1t adequate
accommodations for spectators for any
important match. The same objections
apply to the Paterson park, with a
third condition to be considered. Olym-
pic Park is the home field of the Pat
erson eleven and the semi-fnals and
final are supposed to be played on neu-
trail grounds.
Since the national championship
final is to go to New England that
section is out of consideration for the
match on which depends the resting
place OF the american" cup. Some
New Jersey playing pitch other than
those mentioned in this article may
be found for the game. Another pos

while Percy was atill fumbIing. Ex-
perts began to figure that Percy had
met his equal at last. Members Of
the Chamber Of Commerce who had
wagered heavily on the contest be-
gan to look for chance to hedge.
ROUND 3-The ostrich came back
strong in thss round and swallowed
his seconds watch and chain with
the third platter. But the smile of
confidence remained upon Bodies
face. Members Of the Yankee team
shouted: Stay with him, Ping,
Ping cast a defiant glance at the os-
trich as he went to his corner.
ROUND 1.-The ostrich began to
show signs of punishment in this
round. Percy's sides had begun to
swell visibly, while Bodie showed not
a symptom Of corpulence.
ROUND 5-The ostrich came out
a bit weary. Bodies golden smile
widened, and he refused the napkin
proffered by his solicitous second.
ROUND 6-Percy was firing visi-
bly,. Many women spectators at the
rlngside started for the door for hu
manitarian reasons. They did not
want to see the finish.
ROUND Even strong men be-
gan to edge back from the ring
They began to fear that in a few
more rounds Percy would explode.
ROUND Sin this round it was
plain even to the layman that Bodie
was merely toying with his food,
while Percy the Ostrich was diving
on his feet.
ROUND 9-At the start of the
round even hardened eaters were
shouting to Wilbert Robinson to
throw up the sponge. "Do you want
your bird killed?' they demanded.
Not while he's on his feet re-
torted Robinson brutality.
ROUND 1O-The ostrich stag
gered out of his corner with his beak
sagging. 1t was plain that he had
little further to 60 Bodie grinned.
ROUND 1.-THE ostrich barely
waddled from his corner. Percy's
eyes were bloodshot and his sides
were heaying as he toed his platter.

knees. The timokeeper began to
