tho FrcsliiUvV thoAcadomy and suc
ceeded in holding tho eleven from Lin

howovcr, has beon changed consider
ably since the gamo with Lincoln high
school and after figuring and compar
ing for some time it comes down to the
question of, "Where are wo at?"
Thqlcams are about evenly matched

CR088 COUNTRY.
Men
to Continue the Cross Country
. Running for Training.
The cross country men will continue
to do training in cross country running
in ordor that tho distance men may
bo in training for tho track in tho
spring. It is hoped that all men in
tending to' do track work will report
for this, and not put off training until
tho last tiling. It is not necessary
that you be spoedy, for these runs are
to bo long, easy and slow. Tho dis
tance will not be so long but what
anyone can cover the courso, and that
at the pace set by tho leaders. Cross
country -work is the best exercise men
can got who are not able to do the
regular gymnasium work.
It has been arranged to make two
runs each week, if tho weather per
mits. Tho first will bo on Tuesday
from four until five o'clock, and tho
other on Saturday at 3 p. m. These
t5vo dates are such that every man
who wjxnts to do cross country work
may bo ablo to get out at least onco a
week. If you juBt want tho work for
exorcise, do not be afraid to como Into
the work, as It will develop you more
than indoor work.
Professor Luokey Is in receipt of a
copy of tho quinquennial report of the
public .schools of Bloomlngton, Illinois,
which contains a number of photo
graphic views showing what the dif
ferent grades- are doing in regard to
manual training! agriculture and gar
dening especially. The schools' of
Bloomlngton havo, since 1901, been in
charge of Superintendent J. K. Stable

the Indoor sports. Sho has four other

work-tho men do on .Charter day.
Tho events for Charter day this
year will bo the same as last: 25-yard
(lash, running high jump, polo vault,
shot put, rope climb, 'fence vault, and

gram occupies about throe hours and.
