With the breaks going to Captain Dunker's team on Monday, Harvard may overcome its supposed inferiority for its fourteenth win. It is not beyond possibility for Miller, for instance, to run the 100-yard dash in 9 4-5 seconds, in which case Norton would have to show something extraordinary to break the tape. Lundell beat Norton in the trial heat of the 220 at Philadelphia in the Intercollegiates, but lost to him in the semi-finals. Yale's hopes may be defeated in both these events. A few unexpected occurrences like these would overcome the Blue...
Harvard, however, will probably get a first in the shot put through the efforts of Captain Dunker. Bench of Yale will be his most dangerous opponent. The latter, though, does not specialize in the shot, but in the javelin. After establishing a new dual meet spear record against Princeton with a throw of 186 feet 6 3-8 inches, Bench received the Intercollegiate gold medal at Philadelphia. Cheek of Harvard should be able to displace the Eli's second man, Davison. The Crimson football captain elect can hurl the javelin two or three yards further than his rival

...time trials Friday afternoon the University placed Lundell in the hundred and the 220, Watters in the half, and Dunker in the shot put. Watters easily won his heat to qualify, despite the fact that the track was almost covered with water. Lundell, who ordinarily runs the 220, not only succeeded in taking a third in his qualifying heat for that event, winning the right to enter the semi-finals, but also ran the hundred and qualified in it too. Captain Dunker put the shot 43 feet and 11 inches and was one of the six entrants who earned...
...contest last year at New Haven was an overwhelming victory for the Crimson, whose players sold text-books and slide rules to make the journey. Before the encounter with Yale here during commencement week, this year's team has arranged several minor games. H. T. Dunker '25, the manager of the P. B. K. team, announced last night that he is seeking encounters with other sandlot teams and solicits challenges...
