Beginning today the candidates for the hammer and shot events on the Mott. Haven team will meet in the Gymnasium at 3 o'clock and begin practice with the shot under Mr. Lathrop's direction. There will probably be several opportunities this year for the shot men to contest in the games about Boston.
The pole vaulters will work every day in the Gymnasium from 12.40 to 1.15 o'clock and such men as cannot come every day at this time will do the work with the other squads and vault on the days when their recitations will permit. Today being Saturday there will be no work in the afternoon. Beginning next week the work of the men will probably be a little more varied and training for the team race with Pennsylvania will begin.
Pennsylvania has announced the following as the probable make-up of the team that will meet Harvard: Freeman, Orton, Silliman and Seymour. Of these the first two named are the best known. Freeman has beaten 51 seconds for the quarter and was fourth at the intercollegiates last year, coming out from behind the bunch and finishing very strong. Judging from his work last year he is as good as any man Harvard can put for ward 'at present. Orton, the famous distance runner, has hardly speed enough to entitle him to consideration as a first class man in a relay race. The other two men, although they have run before have never been particularly conspicuous.
