THOSE members of the University who desire to compete in the Intercollegiate Sports at Mott Haven on the 29th of this month should not forget that their entries must be sent to W. F. Morgan, No. 1 East Fortieth St., New York City, before May 15 next (a week from to-morrow), as after that date no entry will be received.
Any members of the Academical and Scientific departments are at liberty to enter their names for any of the events, and if at the spring meeting here, they prove themselves worthy to be sent down as representatives of the College, the Athletic Association will pay all their expenses down and back. If several men excel in any one event, they will all be sent down for that event, so that, even if one happens to lose the first prize at the meeting here, he will still have a chance to compete at Mott Haven if his performance is of sufficient excellence to warrant the Association in sending him. A list of the events to be competed at Mott Haven will be found in our Brevity Column.
THERE has also been a universal desire expressed to have this year's changes in the Lawn Tennis rules placed before the lovers of that game. We therefore publish all the additions to, and changes in, the rules of last year, which were made last March, under the auspices of the three most prominent English clubs, in the hope that they may prove of assistance to the daily frequenters of Jarvis and Holmes. They are as follows : -
1. The net shall be 4 feet high at the poles in the single-handed as well as in the four-handed game. The service line shall be 21 feet from the net instead of 22 feet.
2. The balls shall measure not less than 2 1-2 inches, nor more than 2 9-16 inches in diameter; and shall weigh not less than 1 7-8 oz., nor more than 2 oz.
