stated in these columns every age has its sport from the cradle to the grave and it certainly is never going to bo very effective to endeavor to seduce a boy of 18 or 20 into volley ball golf and correc five exercises and away from the football which he happens to be crying for any more than it would be to get the old man of 50 back to play marbles I pre sume from a strictly physical standpoint it would do a man of 50 good to play marbles but I believe playing mar bles when he was 10 created such a love for it in him that he is likely to do it at 50 and 1 certainlv do not that playing football and other violent sports from 12 to 21 or 28 the ne whnn unJnr is crying out for that form of personal strenuous physical contact has the slightest tendency to make a man of 50

RACES A TIME goes on it becomes still more evident that Relay Carnival this year is going to be one of the most Interesting ever held This column has already dwelt somewhat at length upon the quality

other candidates two men who can get under 4 minutes and 30 seconds Another entry has been added to these relay races Harry Hillman coach of the track team of Dartmouth having sent an entry for the tvvo mile relay and it is said that he may also be able to enter a team in the star four mile event which is attracting so much interest The two best men that they had on their two mile team last year are still in college Marceau and Granger each capable of doing 1 minute 57 seconds for the half mile Marceau at the Dartmouth inter class athletic games on March 28 covered the mile in 4 minutes and 25 1 5 seconds lowering the old Dartmouth record from 4 minutes and 29 seconds Granger covered the half in 1 minute and 58 seconds so it shows that both these men are in excel lent shape Dartmouth

manifest tjiat at the big universities there is going to be less and less a closed season for athletes Haughton at Harvard HJnkey at Yale ana Penfield at Princeton are all quite cognizant of the situation and each re alizes that he must pot permit the other to steal a march on him The men who arc being pulled all sorts of ways how ever are the candidates for the football team who are also engaging in other forms of sport like baseball crew and track Of course where these men are veterans they worry much about their chances and are perhaps if the truth must be told somewhat glad not to have to bother with it But where a man is working in one of the other branches as a sub and where his chances for making a name for himself on the football team next fall depend upon Ills beating out other men for the places it Is he who is worrying and wishing he might be in two places at once Mean time all the coaches no matter what they may have said publicly about it are straining every nerve
