QUALIFYING NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS




         In order to keep this track and field championship a quality meet, the Games Committee has set a maximum number for each
         event. This number of athletes will compete in the event. If more than the maximum number of entries is received, only the top
         performers will compete. If a tie occurs for the last spot, the Games Committee may reduce the size of the field taken under the
         number shown.
