A. A. A. A. meet; at the Harvard Stadium, May 30 and 31. Not only will Kirby face an un- usually strong field, but the frail Ithacan will go to the mark with the handicap of having been idle most of the time since the last outdoor sea- son. Due to illness he was kept out of the indoor intercollegiates and most of his team's board meets, while in one of his few starts he was beaten by John Watters, of Harvard, in a tri- angular meet at Boston. Chief among Kirby's rivals will be SchuylerIgnck, of Penn State, the in- door mile champion and world's record holder at 800 metres, but Watters, Thomas Cavanaugh, of Boston College, and Hobart Betts, of Princeton, also loom as strong candidates. The latter three are sophomores, with Watters holding forth unusual promise as a distance star. Together with Ml Douglass, Yale captain, William El- liott, of Stanford, and Jack Ross, of University of California, they complete a field that promises to push the vic- tor to close to record time. The only 1923 ppints sorers on this list are Kirby and Dou1as, wdTiin- ished third. The Cornellian's victory in 4:17 4-5 was one of the most bril- liant college performances of the year, proof of which is that it marked the seventh time that 4:19 had been beat- en in the 47 championship races since 1876. It was not until 1909 that the mile record was put below that level by W. C. Paull, of Pennsylvania, who was clocked in the same time as Kirby. John Paul Jones, greatest of all Cor- nell distance stars, ushered in a. rec- ord-shattering streak in 1911, lowering the time that year to 4:15 2 an,. in SPRRI NSCROSS'CDUTY Ndlte than 80 men are working out under Coach Ted Sulliva iiosh grooiniiig his iargs )'oi' next fross eduntry squad. .

In commenting on the work done Sullie says that the spring cross country training class is a valuable institu- tion to the Varsity hitll and dale coaches and to the men that particip- ate. Since the custom of out-of- season training for cross country was inaugurated at Michigan, there has always been at least several men from. the class that made the Varsity squad. Those .men that fail to become good enough for Varsity competition derive material benefit in point of experi- ence gained and training received. NOEL WORKMAREES CONTRACT T SIMPSONI Indianola, Ia., May 6. - At the close of spring football practice here last week, official announcement was made that C.
