ELI VISITOR IMPRESSED BY WORK OF CRIMSON TRACK MEN

JACQUES '11 HERE TODAY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At yesterday afternoon's practice Joseph A. Corson, Yale '11, manager of the Yale track team which went over to England with the University team to meet Oxford and Cambridge, and Francis W. Capper '15, captain of he Crimson team in that year, and star half-miler, both watched the distance men work out on the cinder path. Capper gave particular attention to the men out for the half-mile and the mile. Corson was favorably impressed with the large squad out for track, and thought that the new system introduced this year ought to develop men who have heretofore been untried.

This afternoon H. Jacques '11, a member of the track advisory committee and former cross country star, is expected to be at the field to coach the men before the mirrors, as well as on the track.

Dr. Whelan commenced actual coaching yesterday afternoon by taking out the men who are running the half-miles. Coach Donovan gave the sprinters a work-out, giving them several starts, while the field event men worked out under the Stadium with Coach Farrell.

General Orders Most Strict

The management has issued these general orders for all track men: "No man is to go out before his squad and every man must wait for his squad captain. Every man must warm up thoroughly before reporting to the coaches. Strict training rules will be kept. This means that all men must be in bed by 10.30 at the latest.
