Winter Track for the Runners.

Mr. Lathrop has a scheme well under way now which will add very much to the convenience of those who are training for the Mott Haven team and will greatly increase the facility for doing good work. At either end of the long board walk, extending from the gymnasium to the east corner of the Jefferson Physical Laboratory, curved extensions are to be placed so that sprinters may run any distance back and forth without being compelled to stop. These curved extensions will be of board to correspond with the present plank walk. Five times down and back the walk and around the curves will make a mile-so that not only the sprinters but the long-distance men will profit by it. The course will be laid within two or three days and the cost of it will be very slight.
