Those who stay around until July 10 will have the pleasure of seeing in the Stadium the Thirteenth International track meet between the combined forces of Harvard and Yale and Oxford and Cambridge.

Crimson contenders, chosen after the Harvard-Yale meet, are: in the 100-yard dash, John M. Callaway '37; in the 220, Callaway; 440, James D. Lightbody, Jr. '40; 880, Alexander C. Northrop '38; mile, Northrop; shot, Bertram M. Litman '38, George A. Downing '40; high jump, Guilliaem Aertsen 3rd '40; and 100-yard high hurdles, Mason Fernald '40.

This is a meet which takes place every other year and on alternate shores. To hate the British have never won in America; the Americans have won seven out of 12 meets. Perhaps that is due to the point scoring system, only first places counting except in case of a tie.

On July 10 the invaders will have one of their strongest teams on hand. Featured on it are A. G. K. Brown, of Cambridge, a ranking Olympic runner up to 880 yards. Also there are E. B. Tisdale, of Oxford, an outstanding miller, F. R. Webster, a 13-foot pole vaulter, and Ali Irfan, a 49-foot shot putter.
