*pating in the iinaxvduai and îeam atn- le tic contests bas an~ equal chance of witnning. a new systeni of classifi- cation for th pupils of the sixth, seventb. and eighth. grades, bas been. iinaugurated by Daniel M. Davis, di- rector,ofirecreatiûn. The old metbod wherein tearns froione grade played *with teamîs of, that grade from other schools was a considerable -iniprovement over thei promiscuons choosing of teamus. but. inasmuch as so me youngsters are older thail others in the same grades, the 'method sometimes, gives unlfair advantage te, certain teams.,and.,evei creates adangerous condition, where- in.thie strongjer boy niay inadvertantly b'urt a younge r boy, even though they conîpete only with teams in the sameé grade. The new classification, Mr., Davis thi,îks, p laces voungsters of sanie size as. nearly as possible ini the samfe class and ini both group and indi- vidual comp)etitive contests he meets oeily boys or girls as the case nmay be of bis own size. RelaSify Eath Year Eachi child iii the three upper grades of thie public scbool was given a classification based on the new sys- tem at the beginning of the year in wbicb he will remnain throughiout the year and next year will be subject to reclassification to take care of ýdif- ferences ini age and growth througlh- out the year, automiatically placing him on teanis and iii individual con- tests wbere he can pit bis strength and. skill agaiinst boys and girls of ,te sane ie 1e. "The trouble with thé old systeni," Mr. Davis states, "was that the boys and girls were constantly conipeting wjtb larger boys and girls in their own age against whoni tbey had no chance for winniing. This happenied constantly' even though. each. chil met only the children in bis own gradeiii al competitive sports. The new classification -Will automatically relieve that difficulty since the grade classification lias. been discarded."
