A competent student manager has been assigned to each of the sixteen contesting teams and will care for his assigned team until Monday morning. The letter men have beE::TI asked to l.isher and to act as ticket takers, while the many other stud­ents will be engaged in odd jobs about the campus to make this year's meet the greatest success possible.

INOW THAT IT I IS ALL OVER

What a season this turned out to be! Last year, Bradley lost three and still took the title. This year, three losses entifles St. Viator to fourth place, following Normal, North Central and Monmouth. North Central won eleven and lost one and sti ll lost the title because State Nor­mal had won twelve and lost one.

,St. Viator attempted to kill too many giants. And we'll bet that even the great Jack of Beanstalk fame had his off evenings.

State Normal went ahead to follow up their Little Nineteen t itle by winning the Normal school tourna­ment held at Carbondale. This was certainly some season for the Normal Pedagogues.
