The track management has arranged for a meet between the Freshman team and Worcester Academy to be held at Worcester on Saturday, February 17. This will be the first meet for the 1920 athletes and will consist of eight events: 40-yard dash, 45-yard hurdles, 1,560 relay race, 300-dash, 600-yard run, 1,000 yard run, shot put and high jump. All the events will be held outdoors except the hurdles, the shot put and the high jump.
There are only about 30 candidates who report regularly for Freshman winter track, and more should come out to insure its success, and particularly the success of the Worcester meet. The events in which the squad is weakest are the 1,000-yard and 600-yard runs, and the hurdles. The team has a good high jumper in J. Buffington '20 and the members of the relay team, after their defeat of the Yale freshmen last Saturday, seem assured of their places. In all the other events, however, there is need of more candidates.
