...meet two of the best men he has run against this year. Lourie ran second to Feldman of Yale in the 100 two weeks ago, and Gourdin should have little difficulty in beating him to the tape, but Stevenson is a more dangerous competitor. He beat Feldman in the furlong distance in the fast time of 22 seconds, and the chances are that he will be able to repeat this performance in the Stadium tomorrow. It is probable that the points in the two sprint races will be evenly divided...

Meet, Moore ran the 220 in 22 and 1-5 seconds, a record which he has not equaled since...

These events have been added in order to give the smaller colleges, which are frequently without good quarter-milers a chance to use the best track talent that they possess...
