The inter-class championship games will occur on the afternoon of Monday, April 23. This leaves but a little over a week for the men who will compete to get into condition. It is hoped that a large number of men will come out and join the class teams. It is perfectly possible that a man who is not able to qualify for the Mott Haven team may win points in these games. Three prizes are to be given in each event in addition to the Weld Cup which is held for the present year by the class of '94.
The 'varsity scratch games follow on the Saturday after the inter-class games. As usual the events will be the same as at the intercollegiate games, two prizes being offered in each event.
The games committee yesterday decided upon the events which will be run in the invitation handicap meeting scheduled for Saturday, May 5. Every effort will be made this year to make this meeting exciting and the limits which have been placed on the handicaps are likely to bring in a notable lot of men. Three handsome prizes, similar to those given two years ago, will be given in each event. Arrangements are being made to have the score of the Harvard-Princeton baseball game which occurs on the same afternoon at Princeton bulletinned by innings on the field.
The events arranged are: 100 yards dash (7 yds. limit), 220 yds. dash (15 yds. limit), 440 yds. run (30 yds. limit), 880 yds. run (50 yds. limit), one mile run (100 yds. limit), one mile walk (30 sec. limit), 120 yds. high hurdles (8 yds. penalty limit), 220 yds. low hurdles (12 yds. penalty limit), running high jump (8 in. limit), running broad jump (2 ft. 6 in. limit), pole vault (18 in. limit), throwing 16 lb. hammer (no limit), putting 16 lb. shot (6 ft. limit), one mile bicycle race (100 yds. limit), two mile bicycle race (200 yds. limit).
