There follows time, while the Irish harriers who ball devotee. Before leaving for the a resume of his activities and honors saw action in the meet were, for the most part, inexperienced runners. Nick is just a little pessimistic about Notre Dame's prospects in the Central Intercollegiate Conference meet next Saturday in East Lansing for he sees little hope for the tre­ mendous improvement that is neces­ sary if the Irish are to make a good showing. At that meet will be such outstanding runners as Ottey and Sears, the entire teams of Indiana and Michigan Normal, which com­ pletely outclass the local harriers. As far as the \\Tnter track season is concerned, however, Nick thinks that things are beginning to look up. Captain Vince Murphy will of course bring down many points with his high jumping. In the two mile, Notre Dame has Gott, Kenyon, and McFar- land, men of vnde experience and men who have shown great ability in cross country. Nick has two milers who are also excellent long distance men. In the half mile are DuCassa, McGrath, Shields, and Cavanaugh. Al­ though Nick has not lined up his short distance men yet, he predicts some good sprinters. George Moore, a sophomore, coming along well in the 60 and 100 yard dashes in spite of a two-year absence from the track. The schedule for the winter track season has not been made up as yet, but it will include such strong teams as Illinois, Marquette, and Ohio State. With a little more luck than the team had last year, the coming group of thinlies should be in there with the rest of them. An excellent team last year was handicapped by a prevalence of bad arches with several men on the team, but Nick hopes that he will not have a repetition of this injury.
