The posters announcing the near approach of the days set apart for the winter meetings have already begun to appear on the various bulletin boards in the different college buildings. From the showing made by the Harvard representatives at the Technology games last Saturday, the winter meetings promise to be the best contested of any that have ever taken place in Hemenway gymnasium. Particular pains have been taken with the members of the Mott Haven team in training them for the running and standing high jump and putting the shot. But the boxing, which has always been a special feature of the games, will be more than interesting from the fact that so many prominent athletes of the college have been giving a good share of their spare time for the past two months in getting ready for the events.
The management of the meetings last year by the officers of H. A. A. was, considering the disadvantages under which it labored, exceptionally good. The events were called out promptly, and the audience was not kept waiting any length of time for the contestants to appear. The seats erected in the gymnasium, although not fully adequate to accommodate the large crowds at the last two meetings of last year, were as good as could be expected, from the fact that they had to be put up Saturday and taken down before Monday afternoon. If the meetings pass off as well this year as they did last, nothing more can be asked.
