Truman Ford gave the best exhibition of the meet, pole vaulting 11 ft., 6 in. to surpass the old record by two feet.

...third quarter Cowen, fullback for Exeter, scored on a two-yard back. Another determined Exeter drive was climaxed by Haslan's line plunge over the touchdown stripe, while the Stahleymen got another tally when McNicol again completed an serial, this time to Calch Loring.
