The Boston Athletic Association has sent invitations to the athletic associations of Harvard, Yale, Pennsylvania and Princeton, to send teams to compete in a relay race at the annual meeting of the association in Mechanics Hall, February 10. Harvard and Pennsylvania have already accepted and it is hoped that Yale will do likewise. Mr. Graham, the B. A. A. manager, has not yet heard from Princeton.
At the same meeting there will be team races between Amherst and Dartmouth; M. I. T. and Brown; Boston College and Holy Cross; and the B. A. A. and the N. Y. A. C., and in addition to special attractions, the following open events:
Potato race (scratch); 40 yds. dash for novices (scratch); three standing jumps (1 ft. limit); 40 yds. dash (9 ft. limit); 1 mile run (80 yds. limit); 45 yds. high hurdle race (9 ft. limit); 600 yds. run (30 yds. limit); 1 mile walk (45 seconds limit); running high jump (6 in. limit).
Three prizes will be given in each event except the team races. The entries close on January 31.
