TRACK

With the return of Coach Harry Hillman to Hanover, track athletics automatically resumed their normal position as a leading branch of sport. The squad of relay candidates, called out some time before Coach Hillman's arrival, was swelled by the addition of several experienced men, and a tentative schedule of indoor meets made its appearance.

Dartmouth will be represented in at least three track meets during the winter and early spring. The management has already made entries for the Millrose A. C. games. February 25, while at least one and possibly both of the relay teams will be entered in the B. A. A. meet at Boston March 1 and the Meadowbrook games in Philadelphia later in the month. Coach Hillman will also make a few individual entries for the separate track and field events.

Prospects are bright for unusually strong relay teams this year. Goodnow, Davis, Carto, and Murray, all "D" men and experienced quarter-milers, are available for the one-mile team, and Prentiss, another member of last year's varsity, is back in college although he has not yet reported for practice. Avery and Macomber, who ran regularly with the two-mile quartet last season, are the leading candidates for the long distance relay, with Coakley, Jenkins, Whittaker, and Crathern strong contenders for the remaining places.

Dartmouth will be especially strong in the pole vault, weight events, and hurdles. Myers, holder of the college indoor pole vault record, and Jordan, national intercollegiate champion in the same event, have returned to college and are already training for the coming games. Thomson, who has equalled the world's record for the indoor high hurdles, is also back, after a year's service with the Canadian Royal Flying Corps. Beers, Wallace, Weld, and Bevan, who proved their worth in the weight events last year, and Murphy, national interscholastic champion in the hammer throw, have all reported to Coach Hillman.
