Leading the Ithacans into the fray is Captain Dick Hardy, Intercollegiate 100 meter champion, who placed third in the IC4A dash because of a poor start, but under any conditions he is vastly superior to anything that Harvard or Dartmouth have to offer.

However, Harvard has two hurdlers in Johnny...
Chalmers, Olympic swimmer and National Collegiate Champion last year, has turned in a time of two minutes, 39 4-5 seconds and looms as a formidable threat to Stowell's record of being undefeated in 17 consecutive dual meets. Wednesday, the Crimson captain came within one-fifth of a second of breaking the World's record in the 220-yard back-stroke event, and has been clocked in a time just three-fifths of a second slower than the visiting star's for the 150-yard distance.

Americo De Masi, 20, had been college fencing champion. Edward N. Wentworth Jr., 21, had been on the soccer squad. Harold D. Watson, 21, had sung in the glee club. So it went down the list: Edward and Alfred Moldenke, 21 and 20, only sons of a Manhattan pastor; William M. Smith Jr., 21; Wilmot H. Schooley, 20; John J. Griffin...
