Comparative scores of the Navy meets for the respective teams indicate a very close meet at the I.A.B. for the second straight Saturday night...
...Liles, who began the season as a broad jump specialist, outdistanced Dartmouth's highly-touted Pete Daley and his own teammates as the Crimson swept the race. Liles also finished a close second in the broad jump...
