FINAL SPURT FOR TRACK MEN BEFORE MEET WITH YALE

With yesterday afternoon's practice on Soldiers Field, "fight week" for the University and Freshman track squads began in earnest for the Yale meets of Saturday. Referring to the chances of the University team against the Elis, Coach Bingham said yesterday that "if every man does what we think him capable of, we have an even chance to win the Yale meet". Whether or not it is the determination of every Crimson runner to live up to the expectations of Coaches Bingham and Farrell will best be judged by a visit to the Stadium track, or by consulting the opinions of former members of University track teams who have been present at practice lately, all of whom assert that more spirit and enthusiasm is being shown than at any time in the past few years. "The men have been working for the Yale meet all winter and spring", said one former Crimson star yesterday. "And I think we stand a fine chance of winning Saturday. However, the student body must give a lot more encouragement to the team than it has to date".

The second series of special hurdle races will be held in connection with today's practice at 4 o'clock. These races are open to all members of the University and Freshman track squads except those who have previously won a special hurdling event. Miniature hurdles will be awarded to the winners by Mr. W. F. Garcelon '95 of the Track Advisory Committee.
