Mott Haven Training Begun.

Training for the Mott Haven team began yesterday, four squads of about fifty men each turning out at the appointed hours. As was to be expected, the 4.30 section was rather larger than the morning ones, and it is hoped that in future all men who can possibly do their work in the morning will attend either the eleven or twelve o'clock section.

The training was light, consisting of a little work on the chest weights and some dumb-bell exercises, followed by short distance sprinting on the floor below the gymnasium. In a short time Mr. Lathrop intends to have the long distance men running regularly out doors, and he also hopes to have special squads for the men in the weights, the jumps, and the pole vault.

Many of the men will probably enter some of the indoor games which have been announced for this month and next.
