...captain, H. B. Hewitt '99, G. S. Baker '99, E. D. Powers '98, A. E. Dacy L. S., H. C. Burdette '98, H. H. Richards '98, and G. F. Hurt '98. On some day of this week, probably Wednesday, the squad will begin riding on the Charles River Park track. The new track is one-third of a mile in length, and is built with heavily banked sides, especially for bicycle riding. Not only will the squad have the advantage of working on a good track, but there will also be many outside riders training at the same time...

In consequence the large crowd which came to see the Biennial Games were fortunate enough to be present at as successful a meeting as has ever been held in Cambridge.

Judging from the present conditions, Pennsylvania should be very successful in athletics this spring. The baseball team has developed remarkable strength considering the circumstances under which the men have been working, while the unusually large number of men trying for the track team ought to result in a creditable showing later.
