...first two places in the hammer-throw came out as was expected. 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...
