...sprints are not promising from a Crimson point of view. Comins, the Eli crack runner, is capable of 10 1-5 seconds in the shorter dash, and 22 seconds in the 220-yard event. This is better than any of the Crimson entries have shown up to the present time. Murphy should win second place in the 100-yard event, with Field and de Rham batting for third place with Page, another Eli who has done good time. The best Crimson bet to nose out Comins in the longer dash is Hull, with deRham a possibility for third place over...
...either one of these, and should score first in whichever one he enters. Cutcheon, whose running has improved greatly in recent practice sessions, is another potential Crimson victor in the long runs. Friedlander and Greeley are the best Blue entries for the mile, while Tracy and Whittlesy are possible Eli point-scorers in the eight laps...
Durant is the best Eli to line up with Fletcher and Clark. the most promising Crimson entries in the 120-yard high hurdles. Fletcher won the event against Andover but Durant with the reputation of being the best yearling fence taker at New Haven in years will probably break the tape. The story in the low hurdle race will be much the same except that Hull will be added to the lists of Crimson entries, and should make Durant extend himself...
Comine, the star Eli sprinter. is logical choice for first in the broad-jump, with Murphy sure to run him a close second. Both teams are weak in the high jump, but the result will be close. between Annan of Yale, and Ellovich and Greeley of the Crimson yearlings. The general consensus of opinion gives the edge to Greeley, with Annan and Ellovich placing second and third...
...weight events promise an even break, with Captain Dunker of the yearlings a probable winner in the shot-put. Bench should come close to him, while Hallowell is the best crimson prospect for third place. The hammer-throw, on the other hand, seems sure to go to the Elis, with Lufkin the most likely winner, and Theopold and Earle, a promising Eli, sure to come close to tying for second place...
