...what extent the war has affected University athletics was clearly shown yesterday afternoon in the first day of the annual mid-winter track carnival, the proportion of Freshman entries in the track games being larger than ever before.

Such an arrangement would abolish many of the objections to small camps, which are expensive even for the larger universities and impossible in the smaller colleges. In addition, it would have tremendous advantages in the following ways...
