GREAT CONTESTS AT GEORGETOWN
Nurmi and Ray Both on Card
 for Games Tonight

Washington, Feb. 21.--star ath- letes of indoor track and field games who have been making track history in recent competition in the east were gathering here today to stage the biggest sport carnival in the national capitol's history at the Georgetown university track meet tonight at convention hall.
 Paavo Nurmi, the Finnish mar vel, heads the list of talent from the games, with the distance over which he will travel probably not to be determined until late today. Hugo Quist, Nurmi's manager, has announced that the Finn would like to run over the 5000 yard route, but has reserved the right to set the distance at the last minute.
 Nurmi, in company with his man. ager; Minister Astrom os Finland, and other track stars and athletic officials had arranged to pay visit during the day to the White House to see President Coolidge.
 If the record-breaking Finnish runner decides on a 5000 yard race, he probably will be pitted against Verne Booth, of the MilIrose A. c. of New York; Ilmar Prim and Gum Ni1cSnn nf tho JTtn y,tc ct A ican A. c. of New York, and William Cox of the 1924 Olympic team and scholastic cross country champion.
 Should the mile route be chosen, Nurmi is expected to face the pick of men entered in the 1500 meter event, who 1t is thought, will be withdrawn from that event to give the Finn formidable competition. In any event, the chances are that all will be given handicaps 10 make Nupmi extend himself for record.
 A feature of the meet will be 1900 invitation race, in which Joie Ray, Illinois A. C. middle distance star; Lloyd Hahn, who recently es- tabished an indoor mile record, and Jimmy Connolly. former George town star, are entered.
 George Marsters, Hilltop half milers; Alan Helffrich, of Penn State and Ray Watson of the Illi- nois A. c. are expected to make things hot in an co meter invita- tion race in which the contestants will continue on to the half mile mark in an effort to better the rec , ord for that distance.
 Other invitation numbers are the 40 and 125 yard dashs in which Boots" Lever and Farrell of the New York A. C., and others are to compete, and the 400 ald 500 meter events that will bring out Dodge, Burgess, Driscoll Devamey, Ascher, and Watson.
 Eight open races are listed. to- gether with two races for scholas- tics and three field contests-broad jump, high jump and sho put. The winner of the broad jump will com- pete in a special match with Bob Legendre. former Georgetown ath- letc who set new world record for the event in the last Olympics.
 Relay races will find Virginia competing aaginst PennSlvania, Princeton against Navy, and Mary
 land against it's old rival, Johns Hopkins. Eugene Bonniwdl of Philadelphia will referee.
