This evening at 7.15 o'clock the first event of the B.A.A. games will be started at Mechanics Hall. About 10 o'clock the Harvard-Yale relay race, one of the feature events of the evening, will be staged. The University relay team, composed of A. W. Douglass '21, W. H. Goodwin '20, J. A. McCarthy '22 and D. F. O'Connell '21 will have a hard time in overcoming the Eli quartet, which is one of the fastest of recent years. All of the Yale team are "Y" men, and Reed, who is running anchor, against O'Connell, is one of the fastest runners of the 780-yard distance in the country. M.I.T. has probably the best 390-yard relay team in the country, so that the race between the Technology and University runners promises to be very interesting. The Crimson runners are: R. Chute '22, W. F. Goodell '21, E. O. Gourdin '21, and B. Wharton '22.
H. M. Mahon Unc., who was the only University entrant in the three-mile event, has been compelled to withdraw on account of a pulled tendon in his leg. Captain D. F. O'Connell '21 will run, having sufficiently recovered from the cold from which he had been suffering.
In the sprints, in which C. S. Evans Unc. is the most promising Crimson entrant, there is an imposing array of prominent runners, including: Paddock of the University of California and Schultz of the University of Missouri. Landon of Yale, Thompson of Dartmouth and Whalen of the B.A.A. will oppose C. G. Krogness '21 in the high jump.
1923 Relay Men Meet Elis Too.

The complete list of events in which University men are entered is as follows:
Relay race against Yale (780 yards per man); relay race against M.I.T. (390 yards per man); 1923 relay race against Yale 1923 (390 yards per man); 40-yard dash; 600-yard run; 1000-yard run; one-mile run; high jump
