TRACK TEAM COMPETES FOR NATIONAL HONORS

28 Crimson Runners and Field Event Men to Take Part Next Saturday in Indoor Intercollegiates

The University track team will send 28 men to the Intercollegiate Indoor Track Meet to be held Saturday in the 102nd Engineers Armory, New York City. Twenty-two colleges, including Princeton and Yale, have entered 820 athletes. Because of the University victory in the triangular meet last Saturday, local sports writers are favoring the Crimson team to win. This opinion is not shared by track authorities outside Boston. Certainly the Crimson team will meet great opposition in a competition for which Coach Farrell has not pointed his men.

Georgetown is favored by out-of-town observers to carry off titular honors, for the Washington team has a balance more perfect than that of the well-rounded Crimson team. First, George-town will present a two-mile relay team which has shattered the world's indoor and outdoor records. They will be pushed hard by the Boston College team. The Crimson two-mile team should place, if it does not push the leaders.

In the mile run there is an array of runners who will force Watters to the limit. Leo Larivee of Holy Cross and Thomas Cavanaugh of Boston College will make the mile one of the fastest college runs in years, and give Haggerty and Watters great difficulty.

The University entries are:

70-Yard Dash A. H. Miller '27, Jefferson Fletcher '25, H. B. Pick '27, W. R. Chase '26.
