With the announcement of Man ager Lindemuth's track schedule last week, our knights of the cinder path have now begun to work harder than ever. Every day sees a big squad of men running around the different parts of the campus or off into the country. • "Pop" Gold en has been holding daily workouts for the Penn Relays; out by the Forestry Building there are seldom less than a dozen men running the quarter-mile every afternoon. Cap tain Maurhoff has been pole-vault ing untiringly in the Armory and if Old State does not win nearly all f her track meets this spring !t will be no fault of the track •;ua Lich has been working faithfuly. Besides Watts 'l2 of Mercers burg in the two-mile run and Crawford 'l2 of Pittsburg High School in the pole vault there are quite a number of promising new men. Until the new track is ready however, and final trials are held, it cannot definitely be stated just how valuable they are going to prove. Of the old men who have had more or less experience on the Penn State track team, the following are in school: captain Maurhoff 'O9, pole vault; Bubb 'll, Miller 'll, Armsby 'O9, Guyer 'll, Berry 'l2, and Smith 'll, for the dashes and hurdles; Howarth 'll, Ogilvie 'lO, Hay 'lO, O'Neil 'll, and Berkebile 'lO for the longer distances; and "Dick" Smith 'll, Cyhers 'O9 and Hirshman 'lO for the weights. This is a strong nucleus around which to build a powerful track team and with the new material we should see State win some glorious victories on the track this Spring. Price Five Cents
