Watervilie, April 24.-Tke Colby
track team is all set for their first
dual meet of the year tomorrow af-
ter the brief polishing off which was
given to them this afternoon on the
cinder track at Colby college. The
Blue and Gray cindermen are to
open the season tomorrow afternoon
against Northeastern University of
Boston on the local field and the
meet is expected to be enc of the
best that local lovers OF the sport
have witnessed. The dual meet is
scheduled to start at go o'clock,
sharp as Coach Ryan and Manager
Ford are desirious of getting the
meet off on time and without any
bitches.
Reports from Boston state that
, Northeastern has a far stronger
track aggregation than did they pos
sess last spring when they came to
Waterville to stack up against the
Colby team. Although they have
lost their. star field events man,
Brooks. who badly upset the dope
in several of the field events, they
have more than made up for his loss
in dash men. Colby has about the
same team as represented the local
college last spring in the dual meet,
but several OF the men have develop
ed rapidly this winter under the able
tutilege of Coach Ryan Until they
may be ranked as stars.
The local college men are going to
look keenly at the performances of
George Mittlesdorf in the two uashes
as we'll as Captain Roy IIearon in
the same events. Both men are en-
tered in the century and 40 yard
dashes and it looks as though Colby
would cop at least two first places
in these two events. All winter the
two fast dash men have been fight
ing 1t out for the superiority and the
result is that Coach Ryan has two
mighty fast travelling men. "Red,'
Wentworth, the giant weight man
who wears the Blue and Gray, is eX-
pected to crash through in great
style tomorrow. The performances
of the Colby weight man, the last
couple of weeks in practise has
placed him away in the fore of the
best that the State of Maine can
boast.
