...Captain A. H. O'Neil '28, W. C. Poet '28, and R. P. Porter '29 are entered in the trial heats of the 880-yard run today. Their spectacular race against Hogan of Yale, which resilted in forcing the Yale flash to a third place in this event, promises outstanding performance by these Harvard half-milers. Edwards of N. Y.

It is, moreover, a pity that L. C. Jones' bold and effective drawings cannot be provided...

Lee Barnes of the University, of Southern California holds the record at 14 feet one and one-half inches. Sabin Carr, Yale captain, is close behind this mark with his former world record of 14 feet. Ward Edmonds of Stanford University took third in the Interscholastics last year when he was a sophomore, and has since developed into a strong potential rival for first honors...
