It should be noted that these figures do not necessarily indicate the greatest effort of a man, as they are merely the records made while qualifying for the different branches of athletics. The men, arranged according to their records are as follows: A. J. Weatherhead '16, 1,227.1; J. L. Bigelow '16, 1,169.6; H. J. Coolidge '16, 1,141; C. E. Wright...
