HARVARD BICYCLE CLUB.

At a recent meeting of the Harvard Bicycle Club the committee appointed for the dinner made a report which showed that all arrangements which can ensure a successful dinner have been satisfactorily made. The further business of the meeting was the discussion of a plan for races to be given by the club in the spring. This plan, which has for some time been talked of among the directors, was ???ally settled after a satisfactory report of a committee appointed to investigate the matter. It was definitely decided that the club should hold a race meeting at Beacon park on Wednesday, May 23d. It is expected that entries will be obtained from the different prominent college bicycle clubs, making the meeting primarily an inter-collegiate one. There will also be several races open to all amateurs which will bring in the best riders from the different amateur clubs in this vicinity and elsewhere. At present the single bicycle race at the inter-collegiate games in New York hardly affords sufficient opportunity for all college riders to test their strength. The races at Beacon park will give an opportunity not only for the college riders to compete with each other, each at his own distance, but will also give them a chance to compete with other amateurs. It is hoped that this meeting may be the beginning of other such inter-collegiate meetings to be held annually between the colleges. In order to secure the success of the meeting the club desires the strong support of the college in its undertaking.
