...cups for the '97 'Varsity nine, should be slow in getting started. When so small a sum is asked from each man, and when there are so many to give, fellows are apt to be a bit thoughtless and not go out of their way to drop a quarter in the box. As we do not wish to leave the boxes out more than a week, we must request the college public to get a gait...
...race for the '86 quarter mile cup which was presented to the Athletic Association by S. G. Wells '86 will probably be held on May 6 or 7. This will be a handicap race, the handicaps being arranged by the captain of the team and the trainer; and, in case of a dispute, by the handicapper of the A. A. U.

Applegate and Clark, who won second places in these events, ran very well and will probably develop into point winners. A. W. Robinson, the interscholastic champion, was not hard pushed in the 100 yards dash. If he can swing into the stride quicker after the start he will be a hard man to beat. C. M. Rotch did good work in the high jump, considering that he had just recovered from illness. E. N. Mills...
