Very few persons have any idea of the ability or endurance they possess but having oncegained confidence in themselves, a neces- sary essential for success in athletics,they are often surprised at the unlooked for results. Without doubt anyone who earnestly and faithfully trains cannot surely fail to gain health and strength, if not undying fame, and in place of that tired, lazy feeling to cause to be substituted a feeling of buoy- ancy, vigor and life with which the Creator has intended each one of us to be endowed. And the one who possesses these character- istics may be said to possess some of the qualihcations which go a long way toward the making of success in life. Early in the season Manager Somers had arranged for a meet with Cortland Normal to be held at Auburn on May Io, but Was disappointed and although he attempted to Secure a dual meet with some other school, his attempts were all in vain, for many and varied were the excuses which were present- ed by the different schools none of Whom, and perhaps they had excellent reasons, Seemed particularly anxious to meet our track team. The track team of Auburn High SCl1001 Was one of the many teams that participated in the Interscholastic Meet at Clinton, N. Y., under the auspicies of Hamilton College, but it was evident that for size and condition it was the one. It is true that Utica W011 the meet, but it was necessary for our team to take a long tedious trip while it was 011157 I . 4 . 9 1lL't'uHs:1ry for Utica to make a short journey by trolley. If the individual members, ol the team were not satisfied, yet their suppo,-ter-5 in Auburn were over-joyed when they learned that instead of being half way down the list, Auburn was second and had in the prolonged tussel been beaten by only three points. So deep Con- tentrnent reigned in Auburn hearts and there is no doubt existing in the minds of anyone, into whose hands the pennant will fall next year if Auburn is able to send as strong team as that of this year to the In- tersholastic meet. As the excellent management of the meet does not need to be commented upon and as the members of the other teams were courteous and gentlemanly in behaviour nothing occured to mar the serenity of the occasion. During the Whole of their stay in Clinton both the team and its rooters were the guests of the Delta Kappa Epsilon and the Chi Psi fraternities of Hamilton College and the thanks of the team and its support- ers are due to these societies for their gener- ous hospitality. No member of the team can be praised too highly for his efforts in this meet and all of them contended in a manner which was creditable both to the team and to the school.
