...Merrihew '10 fell at the end of the race and F. M. de Selding '10 failed to score. But even with these mishaps Harvard secured 6 points, as T. S. Blumer '10 by a superb effort took first place and H. W. Kelley '10 refused to be beaten for fourth. The University team was unrepresented in the 880-yard and one-mile runs as no one qualified for the former and the entries in the latter were scratched. It was decided to enter H. Jaques, Jr., '11 in the two-mile run and for a time it looked...
...which the University team did not take part. Beck and Paull, the two Pennsylvania runners, had things all their own way and took the first two places. Paull seemed perfectly fresh, notwithstanding his record-breaking race in the mile earlier in the day. In all probability he could have beaten Beck and established another record, but he made no attempt to take better than second. On the final stretch he carefully gauged the distance between himself and French of Cornell, taking care to keep just out of reach. French in turn was in no danger of losing his position...
...with the Yale freshmen last Tuesday at New Haven, when Yale was defeated 6 to 4. The Cornell team has played very erratic ball throughout the season, due in part to the fact that its opponents have been extremely weak. In the last four games the Cornell freshmen have beaten the Pennsylvania freshmen 10 to 9, Cascadilla School 17 to 1, Ithaca High School 22 to 5, and Stiles School 13 to 1. Their fielding is much stronger than their batting, and the team is exceptionally fast on the bases...
...whole shows racing power and drive. Five out of the eight men in the boat rowed against Cornell last year, all of them have had considerable invaluable racing experience, and the crew averages nearly five pounds more to the man than the Cornell eight. It has repeatedly beaten the strong second University crew by many lengths, a crew which Cornell was only able to beat by a scant length even when it was rowing poorly and with one of its best men out of the boat...
...hold the record are J. L. Barr '09, C. S. Campbell and F. T. Neison, both of Yale, E. T. Cook of Cornell, J. F. Pickles of Pennsylvania, and C. Vezin, Jr., of Princeton. If the weather is good today, this record will undoubtedly be beaten again. The distances in the broad jump were surprisingly poor, but this may be partially accounted for by the heavy take-off. Considerable change in the positions as they stand at present will probably take place this afternoon. The hammer-throw is another event in which improvement is looked for today. Talbott and Horr...
