swarthmors College and chsl.
tsnham High Will Stage
lntsrschoIastios Saturday
ENTRY LISTS ARE LARGE
BY PAUL PREP

0y ThVL E1Sh8
TWO Of the biggest interscholastic
1 track meets of the season are on the
schedule for Saturday.
Swarthmore College viii entertain
athletes from Philadelphia and suburbs
Cheitenham High will be the host TO
all those who do not participate In the
3warthmore meet.
Both affairs promise to be more bril-.
liant than those that have. been held
under the auspices Of the same insti'
tutions in former years.
For sixteen consecutive years Swarth-
more has reserved the Saturday follow
Ing the Penn. relays for continuing In.
terest in track and field athletics among
the schoolboys. And as each year has
passed the meet has grown better until
country.
Cheitenham Highs meet will mark
the tenth in the history OF the school.
This, too, has grown with passing
years and now stands among. the lead
ers 30 far as high and prep school meets
are concerned.
Forty institutions have signified their
intentions Of sending their stellar ath.
letes to take part In the Swartnmore
meet. Quite few more are expected to
file entries. Before the entries are
closed officials At swsrthmore say that
the list will be bigger than ever before.
Twenty four schools have sent their
signed entries to the Cheltenham au.
thorities. As is the case with Swarth'
more, more entries are expected within
the next few days.
At the present time Harrisburg Tech
has the edge on the other schools In the
Swarthmore meet. Harrisburg has two
legs on the trophy. Central High has
won it once. Baltimore Poly and Mer.
cersburg also have one leg on. the trophy;
As usual, the Cheltenham event, will
be divided into two classes. The schools
performances. However, the running
events will be the only ones divided into
classes; all schools will take part In
the field events on an equal basis.
Northeast High looms big in the meet
at Swarthmore. The Archives, along
with Central and West Philadelphia,
seem to be the best bets for first honors
so far as first place Is concerned. Mer.
cersburg, Harrisburg Tech and q few
others, however. will have to be reck.
oned with.
Germantown Highs champion relay
team is among the Cheltenham entrants.
Norristown High. Frankford High,
Lower Merton High, Cheltenham High,
Camden High and Lansdale High, win.
ner Of the suburban championship, also
are entered in this class.
Amber High, Lansdowne High,
