100 Years Ago: Jan. 25-31

From The Indianapolis Star, Saturday, January 25, 1919:  Indianapolis Boy Scout troops will hold their annual indoor track meet at Tomlinson Hall tonight and a large entry in readiness assures keen competition at the starting gun.  In addition to the track meet, several special events, including twenty and forty-yard dashes, running high jump, and a four-man relay race, will drive away any dull moments.  Scouts will be divided into two groups, Class 1 under 15 years of age; Class 2 older Scouts.  Each troop will be allowed to enter a Scout in each event in both classes.  A victory pennant will be awarded to the troop winning in each class.  The program features a tumbling act which will be put on by one of the troops and the climax of the evening’s events will be the district tug of war.
