YALE TRACK FANS ARE GIVEN SHOCK
New Haven, Conn., Feb. 17.--Devotees of track athletics at Yale received a shock last night when only thirty-five candidates reported at a meeting called by Captain Brown. This is the smallest number in years. Last season there were about 100 candidates. It is believed that the unusually large numbers of candidates for the crews this year, has taken away many available men.
Active track training starts tomorrow, but unless more men report, the outlook is considered dubious.
