games on Feb. 13. The events of the spring, in which the Track Team is interested, are: Class games, early in April; University games, a week later; University of Pennsylvania relay meet, April 23; Field Day, late in April; Dual Meet and Intercollegiate Meet, in May. A committee of the Intercollegiate Association, at a meeting in Cambridge on Jan. 16, decided that, inasmuch as the Dual Meet is to be held in the Stadium this spring, the intercollegiate games may better be held on Franklin Field, Philadelphia; the Stadium will probably be used for this purpose in 1905.

Several members of the Track Team, including Rust and W. A. Schick, '05, were entered in the Columbia meet in New York on Jan. 30. The only man to score was H. LeMoyne, '07, who secured second in the shot put.

Hockey.

Practice began on Spy Pond early in December, and moved to the rink on Holmes Field as soon as it was ready. The men of last year's team who reported were: T. B. Souther, '04, capt., and E. Macleod, '06, forwards. W. J. Clothier, '04, cover-point; P. Carr, '04, point; D. A. Newhall, '06, and H. D. Kernan, '05, substitute forwards. E. Wilder, '06, and R. S. Townsend, '07, have been used as forwards, and M. H. Ivy, '04, has played goal. Several practice games were arranged, but most of them had to be canceled on account of poor weather. Harvard's first game in the intercollegiate schedule with Princeton, on Jan. 23, was canceled by Princeton. During January the team developed a rough, slashing style of play, wholly inferior to the team work they had shown in December. On Jan. 30 they

defeated Columbia in St. Nicholas Rink, New York, by a score of 2-0.

The Freshman team, after considerable practice during December and January, was defeated by St. Paul's School at Concord on Jan. 23, and by Pomfret School at Pomfret on Jan. 27; the score was 4-0 in each game. Despite these defeats the Freshmen succeeded in defeating Yale, 1907, on Holmes Field, Jan. 30, by a score of 2-0.

Basketball.

Capt. H. B. Bigelow, '05, called a Basketball meeting for Nov. 23, which was attended by about 90 men. The squad was immediately divided by Classes and put to practice, in preparation for the Class series. On Nov. 30, the Juniors defeated the Seniors, 37-0; on Dec. 1, the Freshmen defeated the Sophomores, 12-0. In the final game, the Juniors won the championship by a victory of 19-10.

When the Class games had been disposed of, a University squad of 28 men began work, with J. W. Gilles, 2 L., in charge of the coaching. The first game, which was scheduled with Cornell at Ithaca on Dec. 21, was canceled by order of the Athletic Committee, who will not allow the team more than three games which will keep them away from Cambridge overnight. The rest of the schedule, with scores so far as the games have been played, follows:

Jan. 8. H., 15; Univ. of Penn., 18.

"15. H., 14; Columbia, 38 (at New York). "23. H., 17; Princeton, 8. "30. H., 14; Holy Cross, 18 (at Worcester). Feb. 12. H., 16; Columbia, 25.

"19. H.; Princeton (at Princeton).
"20. H.; Univ. of Penn. (at Philadelphia).
"27. H.; Cornell.

Mar. 5. H.; Yale.

11. H.; Yale (at New Haven).

The Freshman team has arranged a schedule which culminates in games

with Brown 1907, and Yale 1907, about Mar. 1. So far they have defeated Tufts 1907, Browne and Nichols, and Holy Cross 1907; and have been defeated by Melrose High School.

Notes.

In the autumn cross-country meet at Travers Island, N. Y., Cornell won the intercollegiate championship with a total of only 12 points against the team. Harvard was second with a score of 37; Yale, third, with 46; Princeton, fourth, with 78; Pennsylvania, fifth, with 100; Columbia, sixth, with 112.-A joint gymnastic exhibition is to be held with Columbia on Mar. 11.- The Fencing events of the early winter included a novice tournament early in December, won by W. MacLeod, '05; a Class tournament, on Dec. 16, won by 1905; and a match with Mass. Institute of Technology, in which Harvard won, 5-4. H. W. Holmes, 1 G., is captain of the team. - The Swimming Team began practice in Dunster Tank in January, in preparation for some intercollegiate meets which are being arranged.—R. E.
