SCHOOLBOYS COMPETE IN STADIUM MEET TODAY

MEET IS UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE H. A. A.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Athletes from Massachussets High Schools will come to the Stadium today to compete in two classes in the seventh annual track and field meet conducted under the auspices of the Harvard Athletic Association. Nine events will attract the contestants in both Class A and Class B

Last year Brockton High, leading Dorchester High by six points, captured the Class A title, while Arlington carried off the Class B laurels, topping the Fairhaven athletes by three points.

The meet is scheduled to start at 2 o'clock and will be run off, regardless of weather conditions. S. deJ. Osborne '26, manager of last year's University track team, will referee the meet and H. W. Carle '23, assistant Graduate Treasurer of the H. A. A., will act as Marshal. R. C. Floyd '10, former track manager, will serve as clerk of the course.

About 16 schools have entered teams in the two classes. Class B includes smaller schools and those which have recently taken up the sport.

New records in the quarter mile and in the 880-yard relay race featured the meet last spring, and the pace of 51 seconds for the quarter sot by Smith of Brookline High and the time 1 minute 35 seconds for the half made by the Dorchester team, show that the standards set by the quality of last years competition are high. A to 2-5 second run in the 100 made by Trull of Lowell and a broad jump 20 feet 7 inches by Cregas of Brockton were also outstanding performances in last year's meet
