This afternoon occurs the last of the three winter meetings of the Athletic Association. There are not so many entries this year as there have been in former years, and consequently the competition in the various events will not be so close as usual. However, the meeting will doubtless prove interesting to those who enjoy gymnastic feats on the rings and bars and the like. Two of the events-the high jump and pole vault-will be contested at the Mott Haven games this spring, and the records made today will be watched with interest.

As a whole, the meetings this year have not been up to the standard of former years; not, we think, because of any negligence on the part of the stewards of the Athletic Association, but rather because of the lack of interest of men in college. The enthusiasm that was expressed during the football season seems to have exhausted men's energies for any thing else. The efforts made by the Athletic Association to arouse interest in the weekly contests they arranged, met with feeble response and were abandoned. It is this lack of interest that has made the meetings this year inferior to those of former years.
