First Regiment Games.

The first indoor open handicap games of the First Regiment Athletic Association were held in the South Armory, Boston, Saturday evening. An unusually large number of Harvard men entered, and the showing they made in all the contests reflected credit on the H. A. A. and upon Mr. Lathrop.

The first event of the evening, and perhaps the most entertaining was the 75 yard dash. In this event there were ninety-seven entries, forty-seven of whom were Harvard men, and twenty-two heats.
