Maryland's team victory ended a five-year winning string for Jumbo Elliott's Villanova Wildcats. The Terrapins won two events besides the high jump, on the strength of Henry Cole's 24 ft., 5 3/4 in. broad jump and Russ White's 241 ft., 1/2 in. javelin throw...
Bilodeau grounded to Jumbo third baseman Wally Rogers, who tagged out the runner on third, then threw the ball into the dirt somewhere near first base. John Dockery scored on the error...
