SECURE COACH FOR NEW TRACK EVENTS

Discus and Javelin Throwing Candidates to be in Charge of Finnish Athlete--Large Cross-Country Squad to Use New Course

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In preparation for the discus and javelin throwing events which will be added to the Intercollegiate track program for the first time this year, the candidates will be coached by Mr. J. Mikkola who was one of the men in charge of the Finnish Olympic team in 1920. He will reach Cambridge Monday and start work immediately. Track men are to report at the Looker Building Tuesday at 2.30 and cross-country men at 4 o'clock. Plans for the fall season will be outlined at this time in detail.

Since 50 men have already notified the H. A. A. of their intention to report for cross-country this autumn, the management is making arrangements to handle a large squad. The candidates will use the new Cambridge course regularly, only going to Belmont once or twice a week. Starting from the Stadium, the course that has been laid out covers seven and a half miles in all, but several short cuts have been included for use when the squad is to be sent on shorter workouts. Coaches Bingham and Farrell will be in charge of the team which will compete against M. I. T., Cornell, and Yale. The season will close with the Intercollegiates that are to be held at Van Cortland Park in New York on November 21.
