points at the Interscholastic Indoor Meet
at Boston on March 17. The total num-
ber of points won was two and one-half.

vault, with two other contestants, by a
vault of 10 feet 114 inches,. breaking the

the breaking of the indoor record for the
shot-put by Moore. The record now
stands 37 feet 8 inches. .
The interclass bowling tournament
was won by 1901 on March 28.
The Academy Athletic Association is
seriously considering the question of
establishing rowing as a branch of Exe-
ter athletics. The expense of such an
undertaking is the only obstacle, for-*
there is a fair water course on the
Squamscott river. Considering the
number of men Exeter sends to Har-
vard, the Academy would undoubtedly
receive aid from that quarter.

ciation have definitely decided to hold
their annual dinner on April 10. The
P. E. A. Glee Club will be present on
this occasion.
The following men will enter Yale

_ April 3, and will reopen on the 11th.
