TO HOLD FIRST GYM MEET AT INDOOR ATHLETIC BUILDING

Development From Nelson's Classes Starts Tuesday

As a result of unusual interest this year in gymnastic exercise, a gymnastic meet will be held at 3 o'clock in the Indoor Athletic Building on March 8. At present there are about twenty men planning to compete, but all members of the University are invited to enter.

This is the first definite and organized gymnasium work that has been attempted at Harvard for many years, so that the large number of men practising is gratifying, considering the rival attractions of intramural sports. The work is carried on under the direction of Walter Nelson '31, instructor in gymnasium work, and the meet is expected to lay bare talent which has been developing rapidly in the last few weeks. The five events are: parallel bars, horizontal bar, side horse, flying rings and tumbling, and each entrant will perform two optional routines is the event in which he is entered.
