...French '29, in addition to being the favorite in the 100-yard dash, is depended upon for a first in the broad jump. His leap of 23 feet 11 and one-half inches in the Dartmouth meet, although discounted by a favoring wind, is nearly one foot farther than any Yale jumper has reached this spring. The closest competition will come in this event when G. A. Lomasney '28 battles with Oldt and Brandenburg of the Blue aggregation for second or third place. Against Dartmouth last week Lomasney jumped 22 feet eight inches, while at the same time Brandenburg...
...shotput the University has a strong bid for first and second places, with first practically certain. C. A. Pratt '28 set a new Dartmouth dual meet record last Saturday with a heave of 44 feet and 11 and three-fourths inches. At the same time Hall of Yale was taking first against Princeton at 44 feet six and one-half inches. The contest for second place between David Guarnaccia '29, who has been doing over 44 feet, and Hall, may be one of the turning points in the scoring. First and third places seem fairly well assured, as Stone...
Pratt and Guarnaccia are again counted on for points in the discus. Pratt is reported to have done over 140 feet in practice, and won the event at Dartmouth with a throw of 134 feet, two and one-half inches. Brandenburg took the Princeton discus event with 125 feet four inches. Guarnaccia has a chance to take third place in this event tomorrow, although the point is not being counted by even optimistic forecasters...
...Moore '29 should have little difficulty in winning the javelin throw. His performance at Dartmouth, when he threw the weapon 194 feet four inches, seems to make him a favorite, even when the wind, which undoubtedly contributed to the distance, is taken into consideration. Pendleton of Yale took second in the Princeton meet with a throw of 152 feet nine and three-fourths inches, while Keesling was a third with a slight shorter distance. The fact that Pratt did 176 feet two inches at Dartmouth for a third place, gives good grounds for expecting at least eight points in this...
...hammer throw is another Crimson event, with the possibility of eight or nine points. G. I. Shapiro '28 and T. H. Alcock '29 are practically sure bets for first and second places. Crile of Yale won the Princeton hammer throw with 122 feet one inch, while Shapiro took the Dartmouth event at the same time with a throw of 138 feet six inches. Alcock came in second with 136 feet six and one-half inches, so that the possibility of taking eight points in the hammer is well established. Third place in this event is an open question...
