TWO ATHLETES QUALIFIED FOR FINALS IN 4-A, MEET

PREDICT TIGER VICTORY

A. Stevens '19 and P. E. Stevenson '20, two of the four men entered in the I.C.A.A.A.A. meet in Philadelphia, qualified yesterday in the preliminary trials. Stevens won a place in the hammer throw and Stevenson in the quartermile. It is expected that both will place in the finals this afternoon. Captain H. D. Costigan '20 and D. J. Duggan '20, who were entered in the half-mile and two-mile events respectively failed to qualify.

Twenty-one Eastern colleges and universities are entered in the meet, which will include 13 events. Princeton is favored to win first place, after the defeat it gave Yale and the University in the triangular meet at New Haven last week. In view of the short period of training allowed by military training work at practically all the colleges, and considering especially the slow condition of the track due to the recent rains, it is probable that no records will be broken today.

The meet is the first that the association has held since 1916, the war having interfered with its taking place last year.
