The annual interclass track games will in held in the Stadium this afternoon at 4 o'clock. An entrance fee of 25 cents will be charged all spectators, except holders of baseball season tickets. Admission tickets will be on sale at the gate.
One hundred and sixty entries have been made--a slightly larger number than last year. The four most promising candidates of each class have been chosen by the class captains to compete in each of the track events. No restrictions, however, have been placed upon the entries in the field events. As far as can be judged at present the chances of victory lie with the Juniors, but they should be closely pressed by both the Seniors and Freshmen. The Sophomores should also make a good showing.
In each event the first three undergraduates to finish will receive class numerals. Graduate students may compete, and those who win first or second places will receive cups. The first two undergraduates to finish in each event will also receive prizes, as if no graduate students were competing. First place in each event will count five points, second place three, and third place one. The class winning the most points will be awarded the Frank G. Wells cup, which is at present held by the class of 1907.
The track, which has been carefully rolled and brushed, should be hard and firm by this afternoon. The field itself, which has been covered with canvass during the recent bad weather, should offer good footing for the weight men, while the high and broad jumpers as well as the pole vaulters should experience no difficulty.
All competitors should report promptly at 3.30 o'clock; and in order that the games may be finished before dark, should be ready at least 15 minutes before the scheduled time for their events.
