The Boston Athletic Association will hold its twenty-fourth annual handicap games in Mechanics Hall, Boston, tomorrow evening beginning at 7.15 o'clock. The entries number about 450, of which over 40 are from the University and Freshman track squads. The complete list of Harvard entries with the handicaps of each will be published in tomorrow's CRIMSON.
Three relay teams from the University squad and one Freshman team will compete. There will be two varsity long distance teams and one 390-yard team. The first long distance team will race Yale in the last event of the evening. Each man will run six laps, or 780 yards. The second long distance team will be in a triangular race against Dartmouth and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Cornell has been substituted for Princeton as Harvard's opponent in the 390-yard relay race. The examination period has made it impossible for the Princeton team to make the trip to Boston. The Freshman 390-yard team will race Yale 1916 in what promises to be one of the closest races of the evening.
In addition to entries from most of the eastern colleges, all of the larger athletic clubs will have men competing. What promises to be the most exciting race is the Hunter Mile in which Kiviat and Shepard, of the Irish American A. C., and Hedlund, of the B. A. A., will fight it out for first honors.
Prizes will be given to the winners of first, second, and third places in each event, and in the relay races, each member of the winning team will receive a prize.
