Pennsylvania Relay Races. Pennsylvania's Relay Races on April 28th will again be the biggest and most important sports of the season. At present writing (March 17th) though the date for the en tries is still distant, there are over 150 teams entered and there will be over 200 when the starter's pistol sends off the first race on the last Saturday of April. This will create a new record in the number of in stitutions represented at games in this country but this would not be sufficient to make the games mem orable. Not only are the entries numerous but they are of the highest class. Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Chicago, Wis consin, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Darmouth, Bucknell, Dickinson, Lehigh, Lafayette, Johns Hopkins, State, and in fact all the big colleges nd the best of the minor colleges have either sent in their entries or sent as surances that they will have their ath letes at the meet. The school entries are the best ever received. Phila delphia, New York, Boston, Brook lyn. Pittsburg, Washington, Detroit, Chicago, Butralo, Cleveland, Balti more, Worcester and scores of other places will be represented by their best teams. With such a gathering of the athletic clans, some magnifi cent races will surely result. The college championships are already attracting the widest attention be cause of the fact that the very best teams in the country are represented and new world's records are expected in each event. The day will thus be both interesting and ex citing and as usual an enormous crowd will be on hand. The Relay Management will again give the schools a special rate and permit them to buy their tickets in blocks so that they may sit together for the purposes of rooting. These tickets may be obtained by having the prin cipal of the school correspond with J. L. Fry, Franklin Field, Univ. of Penna., Phila., Pa. Colleges can also -get blocks of seats by applying to the same person. THE. STATE cQ141,,E12114.ii ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION - FINANCIAL STATEMENT January 1905 to Jauuary 1906.
