TRACK MEN ARE STARTED ON HARD WINTER SEASON

With 15 of last year's letter men available, the winter track team, under the direction of Coach E. L. Farrell and Jaakko Mikkola, started practice this week in an informal way for the strenuous season which lies ahead of it. A large squad, consisting of sixty aspirants for the team, contains a number of promising candidates for the various track and field events.

Until after the Christmas holidays, the practice will be of such a nature as to allow the coaches to give individual attention to those reporting. Attendance at these afternoon sessions is not compulsory, but Coach Farrell urges the members of the squad to report at Soldiers Field as often as possible. Practice will start officially on January 4.

A handicap contest in throwing the 35-pound weight open to all undergraduates will be held during the week preceding the Christmas recess.

The men still in College who won insignia last year are: T. H. Alcock '29, P. S. Brown '30, S. E. Brown '30, F. E. Cummins '30, W. M. Dow '29, Leslie Flaksman '29, David Guarnaccia '29, T. F. Mason '30, R. H. O'Connell '30, R. P. Porter '29, J. W. Potter '30, J. L. Reid '29, G. W. Smith '30, G. A. Tupper '29, J. O. Wildes '30.
