68 THE HARRIS ANNUAL Kreutzer has made it possible for the team to have considerable practice. The team was handicapped by lack of funds, which is a mortal weakness. Still, in the second match, with Commerce, it demonstrated that it can overcome these difficulties. Ioffe and Raymond easily won the doubles. Spark and Cohen likewise left the court victorious in their matches. The only Town- send man defeated, Densen, lost his set, ll to 9. Games Played So Far Harris, lg Morris, 4. Harris, 4, Commerce, l.

The first match with Commmercial was an easy victory. -leffrey and Kroll won the first two singles matches, The doubles also quickly fell into our hands. Rodriquez lost, but a defeated :nan who has tried hard should never be disheartened. The Commerce and Clinton matches were lost through poor head- work. ln the first meet we attempted to throw the doubles and win our points on the three singles matches. XVe did throw the doubles, but, unfortunately, could not come through victorious in the singles. XYe had heard of Clinton's weak doubles team, and therefore wished to make sure of two points. But Clinton outguessed us, and put Ablewitz, their best man, and a former Harrisite, in the twin affair and won. Raymond and Da Silva won, but NVade, inexperienced in meets, lost. 1914 ln response to Manager Joffels call for candidates this year, Ray- mond and Wlade were the only vets who appeared. The vacant spots will be nicely covered by Rich Kelly, Cohen, Kreutzer, Densen and Spark. Raymond, who was elected captain, is playing his old winning game.

They were consistent, well-disciplined and reliable body of healthy young runners who never failed to score largely. Owing to ' 'f' lcollege duties Prof. Cosenza was compelled to resign. Ab- sence of a coach soon got the team into intricate labyrinths of trouble, and as a result deteriorated and finally disbanded. But such a deplorable condition could not be permitted to exist. Raimist, Udell and Rubenstein, spirited students, persistently nagged the Executive Council until the latter took the active measure of electing Raimist manager. A call was made for candidates. Seventy- five loyal Harrisites responded nobly by coming out for practice. They have reported regularly all term. At present a fairly promising squad of Mercuryls worshippers have been retained as the Harris Track Team. First Annual Interclass Meet The first interclass track meet was very successful. It brought forward some raw material which promises well. The events were run off without a hitch. Beautiful silver and bronze medals were prepared and given to the victors at a mass meeting. These games have so stimulated the spirit for such affairs that we have great hopes of better meets in the future. Events :- SO-yd. dash, won by Manicoff, Lower A 5, second, S.
