...feature of the meet was the work of E. O. Gourdin '21, and C. G. Krogness '21 and R. W. Fitts '23. These three men together scored 39 of the University's 69 points, Gourdin alone getting 18 of them. Gourdin had things all his own way in both dashes, winning his heat and the final of the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat, with a lead of several feet over his nearest competitor both times. In the trial heat of the 220, he held himself in, barely leading Downey of Tech across the tape, but in the final...
Between the heats of the dashes Gourdin hopped back and forth between the broad-jumping pit and the hot-put ring. jumping toward a mark which was set at 23 1-2 feet, he cleared it by several inches, winning the event and establishing a new University record of 23 feet 11 7-8 inches. Meanwhile he got second place in the shot-put with a heave of 39 feet 4 inches, beating Dandrow, Tech's weight star, by three-quarters of a foot...
...last University entrant in the Penn Relay Carnival, E. O. Gourdin '21, will leave for Philadelphia this afternoon and will compete in the 100-yard dash and broad-jump events tomorrow. J. F.

...only Crimson man contending in any event today, will compete in the throwing of the 56-1b weight this afternoon at 3 o'clock. This is one of the two special field events to take place today, the other being the hop, step, and jump event, in which Gourdin placed third last year. Brown's most formidable opponent in the weight-throwing contest will be Dandrow of the Institute of Technology team. Many expect the Latter, who won second place in the hammer-throw at the Intercollegiates last spring, to break all previous records today in the weight-throwing...
...hurdles, while the 220 and the pole vault would have been tied. Second and third places would have been about evenly distributed. In actual competition, however, it is probable that O'Connell would be able to repeat his performance of a year ago, defeating Siemens in the mile, while Gourdin should be able to win the 220. It must be borne in mind, moreover, that in the Penn State meet, which was was the only one run by the University under weather conditions comparable to those which held Monday at Yale, each runner was allowed to enter only two events...
