SCHOOLBOY STARS WILL FLASH IN STADIUM TODAY

Fast Times Expected in 38th Annual Interscholastic Meet--Exeter Slated to Win First Place Honors

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

This afternoon at 1.30 o'clock more than 250 schoolboys, representing 20 institutions, will compete in the thirty-eight annual interscholastic track meet which has been held under the auspices of the H. A. A.

For the past two years the meet has been won by Andover, with Exeter, in both cases, the favorite at the start of the meet, taking second place. This year again, Exeter would seem to be the best bet for first place, with Andover a close second, but the Andover team has shown plenty of strength, and may be able again to carry off the trophy.

All of the competitors, most of whom will arrive in Cambridge this morning, will be the guests of the H. A. A. at luncheon, and at dinner in Smith Halls. Following the meet at dinner, the prizes will be awarded to the winning individuals, and to the team which gathers the highest point total. Medals will be given to the place winners in each of the events which will be contested, while the victorious school will receive a shield for permanent possession, and a cup, which it holds during the year of its championship, and then must defend in the next meeting.

The schools which will be represented in today's events, and the number of their entrants, are as follows: Andover 40, Boston College High 10, Boston English High 8, Brockton High 16, Exeter 24, Commerce High 14, Huntington 16, Hyde Park High 9, Lawrence High 3, Lowell High 3, Lynn Classical High 9, Lynn English High 16, Mechanic Arts High 10, Medford High 10, Milton 15, Rindge High 6, St. John's 16, Somerville High 6, Winthrop High 4, Worcester 18.
