Brunswick, Dec. 1.-THE Bowdoin
varsity relay squad is working out
daily in preparation for it's race with
Brown and Dartmouth at the B. A. A.
games on January 81. Coach Jack
Maeee is great believer in outdoor
work as means Of developing relay
men. and so a great part Of the
practice every afternoon is being
passed in long joys around the cam
pas. with less emphasis on the board
work.
Although he has veteran team to
work with. Coach Magee is making
no prophecies as to the outcome Of
the race with Brown and Dartmouth.
Ne realizes that both of these COL
'eses a'c out to beat Bowdoin this
year. and that they both nave good
teams. Accordingly. everything pos
sible to get the men into the best
possible condition is being done.
In addition to the four men who
ran en- the team which won Mt the
B. A. AS last year. Bob" Foster,
Johnnie" Tarbell, Rack" Hamilton
and Hal" Littlefield. there is a large
number Of other men who are show
ing up well, and any of whom may
cause some unexpected surprises
when the first time trial are held.
Among them are Don" Mason, Maine
intercollegiate quarter mile champion
two years ago; Charlie Berry, a men,
be: of the varsity cross country team
last fall; ED" Tanning, and Joe"
Small. both of whom were on the re-
lay team which defeated Maine at
the Portland American Legion games
last winter: Red" Boynton, Bob
Ham, and Dave" Sellev-.
In addition to running Dartmouth
and Brown. the Bowdoin relay team
will meet another old rival when it
