This will ne very intense in hurdles, where Princeton has her great Armstrong, while Penn has her sterling timber topper, Mc culloch.

Both ar eon scratch and they should give good exhibitions. Though the latter is the star event, there will be many other-contests of great interest. The Middle States interecbolastic relay championship, the Philadelphia grammar school championship, the midget relav race, the mile run. the intercity relay, the shot-put. the high jump and others in which star athletes will tomuete.

The military events have filled better than ever. The Wail Scaling contest will be very stubbornly fought, as the present champions. Company E. will have their hands full to beat out the other companies In the event. This year the different companies have practiced faithfully and their swiftness and precision In getting over the ten-foot wall will be an eye-opener to tboee who have never seen such an event.

There are over a dozen erties in the heavy marching order race. This is always Interesting, as it Is a contest in which speed is not the only factor. These two events, together with the regimental relay championship, will give the military enthusiasts much to eee. The afternoon's meet Is conceded to either Hill or Mercersburg. but no one vet has had the temerity to try and pick the winners.

Paull. of Mercersburg. for the mile and half mile, and Talbott. cf the same school for the shot, seem about thA only sure things for- the dav. Any of a dozen bovs1 may win the 40 vards dash, though Hough, of the George School: Manning and Black, of Mercersburg; Christine, of Penn Charter; Campuzano.

of the Central High; trench, of Haverford. or Barry, of HilL seem to be the pick of the lot. There are but ten boys in the hurdle race, but almost any one of thm may win. Liggett, of Central High, and Piatt, of Hill, are the best known. Thus it is in all the events, so that there should tie something doing every minute tomorrow afternoon.

Everv school boy in the city interested in track sport should be on hand to see this very interesting meet. The afternoon meet will begin nwmitlv at 2 P. while the evening's games will star at r. a.

The largest gallery of the tourney thus far twned out to see the first match, between Whitney and Fincke, and they witnessed one of the closest and best played and most grueling matches ever brought off in this country: Kdsar Scott, of Philadelphia, refcreed this contest, und George Standing, the professional champion of the world, acted as. marker. Fincke won the first game in an attractive, easy style that was -deadly, however, in its accuracy, and Whitney only scored two aces, Fincke varied his service cleverly. Whitney, however, warmed up in the second, and playing his splendid forehand stroke, sored kill after kill. Fincke scored two aces at the start this set before Whitney put him out by forehand comer stroke that riw back for perfeet length on the left side wall.

Then Whitney went in to serve, and aided by a couplo of missed drop strokes on the part of his opponent; ran five aces. An active rally then resulted in Fincke's favor, and he went to serve, but only made two aces, Whitney getting both serves up. After a number of good bullies Whitney woo cut. 15-11. Fincke took -the next game.

15-7, aided -by Whitney's misses and his own remarkable getting of difficult shots. The fourth set went Whitney principally on his remarkably hard and effective service, 15-3. With the score at 2 all with the deciding set to play both men went out to hav ethe soles of their shoes filed, as the mirror-like lioor of the court was getting slippery. They came back and began of the most greuling and beautifully contested deciding games 'ver plared. Fincke was put on his first service by a dron vollev and Whitney scored 2.

Then Fincke put him out after a hard rally on straight forehanded stroke, and in turn scored two. aces, tieing the score. Neither band scored on the next exchange of service. anl then Whitney made 3 after the hardest kind of play. Fincke was attempting to drive to Whttney's back hand, and in this whv succeeded in tietni the latter at 7 all.

Then Fincke made one ee. making the score 8-7 in bis favor, but Whitney with a. terrific rallv round the court sen tthe score to all.

Mike- alone; Willie Moody vs. Johnny Dohen. and reserved choice ringside aeats, 75c. LOS ANGELES. Feb.

21. Champion Jim Jeffries has at last gone ou record as to when ani how he will light. When asked 'today whether he would meet Bill Squires, the Australian, when the latter gets to this country and issues his defi to the; whole of the United States, the champion of all champions at once said that he would meet him in a second7 if Souireg could show that he was worthy of a light and if there, was a big enough purse hung un to make it worth his while. This is what Jeffries had to say; "Just show me that Squires is able to fight and that the public wants me to meet him, then find the proper purse and. will at once sign up.

I am ready and anxious to fight, but am 'not going to return to the ring to meet a lemon. I hare met too many of this brand, and the peogjj got sour on me because It looked as though I was out looking for easy money. I want and need the money, but do not need It so badly that I will take a chance to face the charge of manslaughter to gct it. There are a lot of alleged pugilists challenging me that would curl up and die If I hit them. These are the men that 1 will have nothing to do with.

bunch of men that I bar are negroes. I will never fight a colored man, no matter how, good he is. except under the circumstances that I last fought men. That means that as long as I am champion of the world I will never meet a colored man for the title. "If I were not the champion 1 would fight a negro at any time.

I would be especially willing to meet one were he the champion. Good old John L. Sullivan was the first to draw the color line, and I am willing to abide by his decision. There is a big fellow named Jack Johnson that has been howling for a chance at the title for a long time. He is colored.

I know that I can beat him and beat Mm easily, but I will not take him on. He Is a pretty clever man, but that lets him out. He has no heart. "Getting back to Squires, I am willing to that all that is needed is to show, me that there is a chance for the Australian to put up a good fight and he can sign up. I hope that he will be able to show the public that he is in line for a fight." Jeffries seemed to be absolutely in earnest when talking, and there is no doubt that ha would rather lose his title to a white man than give a colored boxer a chance to win it.

He is personally not opposed to colored people, but the idea that no Mack man should have a chance to win the title is so strongly fixed in his mind that he will not consider any proposition that would force him to meet Johnson. stinger Am) o'KEETE Tliey Pnt 11 Rattling; Fast Boat.

GOLF AT WANAMAKER'S Open Tournament Begin Today in Sporting Goods Department The open interscholastic substitute golf tour-nement at Wanainaker's begins todaj. The qualifying round lasts until March 1, and entries will be received at any time up to that date. Entrants may play their qualifying round at anv time between now and March Judging from the heavy entry list the competition for the sterling silver cups offered as priies will be Tery keen. The qualifying rounds will be played over the substitute golf course In the sporting goods section of the Wanamaker store.

This smallest golf course, to be exact, is eraflnofl a snace flftv feet long by twenty feet wide at the outside, and represents the new sranie of substitute golf. This game Is the invention of a golfer of the first flight, a tniiraament nlaver who has demonstrated bis ability on many a course. About the only' thing that the player does not do is walk the links and swing the clubs. The parlance of the game is necessary, the etiquette of the game is in evidence and the various dellgHtful uncertainties that confront the-Dlarer in an actual game of golf are to be found also in substitute golf. Brietly, the game is played as follows: There are nine boards, each board representing a hole and each accurately laid out with bunkers, hazards, fair greens, putting green.

etc. Play commences by tho spinning of a disk marked "This disk when it comes to a stop indicates the number of yards the ball has traveled and whether or not It went in a straight line, the board Is laid off Into a thousand squares. which enables one to accurately place a little miniature ball at the point where the drive stopped; the next disk Is now taken at the Judgment of the plaver, but if he is unskilled it would be well for him to refer to his guide book: let us say that the ball landed with a food "lie;" the club to use, in the players udgment, -is a "brassle." He takes the brassle" disk and spins it, and when it comes to rest the pointer indicates the number of yards and tho lie" that results from th stroke. We will now presume that the ball is within fifty yards of the 'green" ant that a "bunker' Intervenes. Ihe playei and taking the "loftel" disk he spins it as before.

The ball may now be either on the "green" or long or short it mi tho "irppn" he must use the "putter" disk, if not the choice of the club disk is up to the player as usual. He must hole out. however, with the disk marked "nutter." The same operations are repeated at each hole. Mrs. Lonergan Wins at Golf Feb 21.

This most important uuestion will come up. with many others, at the annual meeting of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America, which is called for this coming Saturday, at New York, ai pitcitiud in the by-laws of the association. Although the Executive Committee of the association has recommended that Harvard b- given the meet, tii-at motion- ha tug been carried by Harvard, Yale- and Cornea over t-eunsyivauia and Princeton, still ui iiwi M-t oy sua see tne ga vard without a big fight.

The games have- been making money since thty -were taken rem York city, and at tin; last meeting of the committee- it was made a by-law of the association fhat the dividends declared by it each year should be di-vbu-d among all the members that have ten or ln-ore men start in the races (providing that not more than three of these men take part in one event), and in proportion to the number of competitors over that number multiplied by the number of inllea they traveled to get to and from the games. This situation leavea the matter entirely to the geographical end of it. Each college will vote to hold the games where it will be cheapest for them to Uo so, for no college makes any money on the event, and the small dividend the ten receive is a mere pittance. It is entirely the distance traveled to and from the games by the teams that will govern the vote in case the matter is brought to a test, as it will be at this meeting.

Under these conditions Pennsylvania will draw her own and the votes of Columbia. Georgetown. Johns Hopkins. Princeton. Rutgers, Swarthniore, Haverford, College City of New York.
