Today is one of very unusual activity among the different athletic teams. The University nine, the track, cricket, and lacrosse teams, the junior and the freshman nines all have games, while the fencing club has a match with Columbia, and the Whist Club settles its tournament with Yale. Of all these, the annual University track athletic games on Holmes Field will have a monopoly of the interest in Cambridge. We are glad that there is no other athletic event of importance to distract attention from them.

The University games alone offer the opportunity for competition on the track regardless of time limit or any other form of intercollegiate disqualification. The list of entries runs, of course, higher than in the class games, and among the competitors in the various events are sure to be all of Harvard's best men. The games, aside from being very interesting in themselves, will make possible some sort of comparison between the Harvard and Yale teams. The annual Yale games were held only a short time ago, and an excellent set of records were reported from them. With favorable conditions today, we may hope to see Harvard's track athletes do equally good work. For them and for all Harvard's other teams we wish the best of success.
