Track will be introduced as an ad-
ditional sport for the fair sex at the
University of Maryland this year.
Previously tennis and basket ball have
monopolized the stage at this time of
the year. but the athletic association
expects to introduce track as a third
major activity.
According to plans made at q recent
meeting Of the association, all fresh
men and sophmores will go out for
track as part of their compulsory
physical education, and upper class
men may elect it and compete with
the two lower classes In the annual
meet which is to feature the Spring
program.
Irene Mead, a junior, is manager
of track. She was elected last Spring
when the idea of making this sport
major at the university first took
shape. Miss Mead has already plunged
enthusiastically into the work of max.
ing this a vital sport with the Mary.
landers. She expects the annual track
meet to develop into the biggest thing
on the co-eds' sporting program be-
fore many seasons. II the rest of the
athletes show the same pep and

Of psychology. And 1t comes straight
from Oklahoma.
According to A. Linde Fowler, spe-
cial golf writer on a Boston paper,
! Mrs. Hubert S. Clarke recently per-
formed feat unique in the history of
the grand old game. She not only
hoied in one on a 125.yard hole, but
she prophesied her feat and designated
in advance which hole she would
pick for the performance.
1t was during a weekly tournament
| of the Oklahoma Golf and Country
Club this Summer. A club member,
Mrs. w. N. Beattie, had put up prize

The first Wednesday in August
rolled around and no one had yet
holed in one. In fact, the ladies' told
Mrs. Beattie her conditions we're pre-
posterous; that holes in one weren't
made on schedule, if ever, on that
course.
Came Mrs. Clarke to the tournament
| that day, and before teeing off she told
bored golf reporter that she was
going to give him something worth
while to write about before the day
was over.
"Yes?" enthusiastically responded
