...winning of points one year gives ground for expectation, the 1910 team should be a well-balanced one, with least strength in the broad jump and hammer-throw. Foster's remarkable development under Coach Donovan promises another sprinter of Schick's reliability, and Blumer, Watson, Cummin and Billings provide second string material in the two dashes. Blumer, Kelley, Merrihew, and deSelding have all shown much ability in the 440-yard dash, and the first two at least should improve. D. P.

Talbott was unable to get off one of his best throws and his distance was only 3 feet, 7 1-2 inches ahead of that made by Horr of Syracuse. Goebel of Yale showed more improvement on the second day than did his team-mate Andrus and defeated sullivan of Cornell for third by 2 feet, 5 1-2 inches...
