Dyke Benjamin will carry the varsity's hopes in the mile, where he will be facing the Elis' Jim Wade, who turned in a 4:15.2 effort last week. Jed Fitzgerald and Fred Howard could make the event a sweep for the Crimson. If Yale coach Bob Giegengack decides to run his ace Tommy Carroll in the mile, however, the race should turn into a sensational two-man battle between the smooth-striding Carroll and Benjamin...
...excellent runners will clash in the mile. The Big Red's Chuck Hill has a 4:13.3 clocking to his credit, and Penn's Ernest Tracy and John Jerbasi have both broken 4:20. Against these coach Bill McCurdy will send Dyke Benjamin, who ran 4:15.6 against Army; Jed Fitzgerald, who defeated his teammate in a 4:16.2 race a week ago, and Fred Howard, a 4:21 miler. Hill must be considered the favorite, but there has been talk this week of a 4:12 effort by Benjamin or Fitzgerald...
...only did Dyke Benjamin's attempt for a University mile record fall short, but the Crimson ace was forced to take second to teammate Jed Fitzgerald, who set another meet record with...
...mile record of 4:11.0. Last week Benjamin obliterated Reider's two-mile mark with an outstanding 9:08.5 clocking. He also took 11.4 seconds off his best previous mile time with a 4:15.6 effort. Princeton's Charlie Hudson and Frank Gutmann, and probably the Crimson's Jed Fitzgerald will be Benjamin's opponents in his record attempt...
...Jed Fitzgerald, Fred Howard, and possibly Benjamin will meet Cadets Ted Benz, the Heps winner, and Dick Healy in the mile, a key event. Fitzgerald outdueled Healy when the Crimson met Army last winter, but since then Benz has come into his own, soundly defeating Fitzgerald in the Heptagonals. Howard has improved, too, and any one of five men could take first place...
