The I t elligh. Wrestling Meet.
A speciallgea has been made by
the Wrestling 'Association for the
support of the students in the meet
with the Lehigh team on Saturday
evening. This is a new venture,
it being the first intercollegiate wrest

Besides providing for the ex
penses of this meet, . the Associa
tion is very anxious to clear a suffi
cient sum of money so that it may
be possible to send the team to Cor
nell, and possibly to Columbia.
The Lehigh match should be es
pecially interesting, since it will be
held under complete intercollegiate
rules. The last sophomore-fresh
- man contest, held under a modifica
tion of these rules, served to show
how interesting such a meet can be.

The Track Team at Work.
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.
