The Pgntathlon is a revival of the ancient athletic carnivals which were held by the Greeks, and was first introduced int9 the modern sport world at the Stockholm Olympic games in 1912. Instead of the pole vault, the ancients competed in the javlin throw, and the discuss throw took the place of the shot put. James Thorpe, the famous Indian athlete, won the event at the Stockholm Olympic, and with it the title of all-round athletic cham- pion of the world. The Pentathlon is a feature of the annual relay races held each year at Philadelphia, and was captured this year by Berry of Pennsylvania.

Reindel proved to have more staying power than the Tech man, and he took the last set, 6-0,. The first set went to Reindel, 6-3. Crawford beat Davis in another three set contest. The first set 'in this match went to the Pittsburg man. Mack, of Michigan, won a love set from Bihlman in their match. Switzer had the easiest time of the Michigan men, as he took his match in straight sets, one of them without letting the Pitts- be assisted by the audience. Madame Ober made her debi Stettin seven years ago, but her American appearance was in Novex 1913, when she appeared in New as "Ortrud." Press and public unanimous in hailing her as an a of the first order. The deep im: sion which she made on this occ was strengthened by her subsec appearances as "Brangaene," "La' "Amneris" and especially as "( vian" in "Der Rosenkavalier." The New York Times says of dame Ober: "She is young, her v has the freshness and strength youthtandshe poursitforth lavi She has the power of coloring it vividness and intensity."
