PREP. ATHLETES COME HERE

Valuable new athletic material should not be scarce at Harvard next fall, according to replies to inquiries sent by the CRIMSON to a number of the leading preparatory schools. The schools were requested to signify where the captains of the four major athletic teams--baseball, crew, football, and track--intended to go to college. Hockey was omitted, because at the time of sending the queries it had not been made a major sport at Harvard. Replies were received from twenty-four schools, nineteen private and five public, located for the most part in New England. The answers have been tabulated below: Colleges Chosen by School Captains.

The various colleges are designated as follows: B, Brown; C, Cornell; C. A. I., Chicago Art Institute; Col., Colby; D, Dartmouth; H, Harvard; M. University of Maine; T., Tufts; Y, Yale.

Thirty-Two Men for Harvard.

It will be seen that athletes of the schools questioned enter college next fall as follows: Harvard--ten baseball captains, six crew captains, 11 football captains, and five track captains, a total of 32 leading athletes; Yale--six baseball captains, no crew captains, three football captains, and three track captains, a total of 12 leading athletes; Dartmouth--one baseball captain, one crew captain, no football captains and three track captains, a total of five leading athletes; Princeton--two football captains only; Cornell--one baseball and one football captain; Brown and Chicago Art. Institute--one baseball captain each; Colby and University of Maine one football captain; Tufts one track captain. Twelve schools are without crews and five have no organized track teams, while in a few cases no captains had been elected.

Owing to the athletic system at St. Paul's School, Concord, N. H., where club captains are of more importance than school captains this school is not included in the table above. With the exception, however of a baseball captain entering Harvard and a football captain entering Pennsylvania, all club captains enter Princeton next year.
