ATHLETICS
With pt"oper snpport, this factor in our school life may not only have a beneficial effect on other phases of our work, but may also raise the reputation of the faculty among other faculties.

Training was held throughout the track season and a dual meet was held - the one with Geneseo Normal School at Wayland on June 12th.
Alfred was represented by a team of six men and scored 56 points, while Geneseo scored 59 points with eight men.
