NEWS OF THE S
PENN'S RELAY GAMES WILL
TAKE TWO DAYS THIS YEAR
Meet Will Be Held Friday and Satur
day, April SS and 24—Champion
ships For Schools and Colleges—
Races Will Be Bigger and Better
Pennsylvania's relay races this year
will be "bigger aud better than ever.
Last year the limit for a one-day meet
was reached aud from now on the games
will be held on Friday aud Saturday.
The games this year will be held April
2 3 and 24.
This will permit the managers to look
uJter the enormous number of colleges
and school teams that attend. It will
1* "O allow them to develop the games
t>a the lines which they have in view.
Tae management has always desired to
Make tue relay races a nucleus for
Olympic teams, and it will be on these
famous races will develop. On Friday
a Pentathlon for college men will be
held. The regular events of the Olym
pic Pentathlon will be contested, name
ly, the running broad jump, throwing
the javelin, throwing the discus, 200-
ineter -ace aud 1,500-meter race. This
will be practically an all-round chain
pionsliip for the college men and it
should be one of the uiost interesting
and important events of the college
season. In addition to this, two new re
lay championships will be held on Fri
day. Both of them are medley relays.
In one race the first man will run a
quarter mile, the next man a half mile,
the third man three-quarters of a mile
aud the last man a mile. In the other
new championship relay race the first'
and second men will run 220 yards,l
the thir l man 440 yards and the fourth
man SSO yards. The rest of Friday's
program consists mostly of events for
local schools and colleges. The only big
event takeu from Saturday's program
"ill be tiie hammer throw, which will
v'O held on Friday. Three other special
events will be given ou Friday, name
ly. the 56-pound weight for distance.
4 40-yard hurdle aud the hop, step and
jump.
Saturday's meet will be practically
the same as usual, except that the
grammar school and parochial school
races will not he held on that day. The;
regular high and preparatory school
•lass races and the college class races
will be given as usual, and the cham
pionships for schools and colleges will
be the same as in previous years.
Judging by the early inquiries about
tiie relay races, this year's meet will'
be the best that has ever been hell'
iirthis country. Last year Oxford's en
try created the greatest interest, and
the re>ult of the race between Penn
sylvania and Oxford has now become
historical. This year there is a chance,
even in spite of the war. of Cambridge
being represented. They fully intended
to come, but the war may oblige them
to change their plans. I'psala Univer
sity of Stockholm, Sweden, is also
thinking of sending over a team.
Below will be found the classification
of the various colleges. In addition to
these, there are a large number of races
for schools, and there are champion
ships for the s.-hools and for the col
leges. The regular Intercollegiate Relay
hampionships of America, at distance*
of one. two and four miles, will be
j'Cid. Local schools have been invite t
to send relay teams.

JASPER Ql ITS LEAGUE
Lack of Support Season for Champions
Throwing Up Sponge
Philadelphia. Jan. 26—One of the
biggest basketball surprises of the sea
son occurred yesterday, when the .las
per club, champions of last year, au
! nounced that it had quit the Eastern
! League and was through for the season.
I I lie resignation of the Jaspers came as
a big surprise, for it was thought that
the club would finish 'lie year, although
the attendance throughout the season
had been anything but encouraging.
lOn top of this came tin desertion of
Numnier, which was probably the final
j "low which knocked the club out of
! the league.
rho I.astern Fjeague has called a spe- j
| rial meeting to be held to-night at the
Bingham House, where action will be
taken on the withdrawal and to eon-!
fide: applications for the berth. Two i
j out-of-town clubs are said to be will-I
• to fill the vacancy, so the league

I friend, "you don't really mean to tell
j me that you intend marrying a man

"Oh, Jrs." replied the young widow.
"I can easily overcome that objection

Ancient Ctl&ssm&king
When the council of ten ruled Ven-,

aro of glassinaking. It runs: "If a
workman carry his art beyond the lim
its of his country to the detriment of
the republic, he shall be desired to re
turn. If he diso'bey, his nearest rela
tives shall be imprisoned. If, in spite
of their imprisonment, he remains ob
stinate in his wisn to live abroad, an
emissary shall be told off to kill him."
