Coach Farrell tested out a large proportion of his field event men yesterday afternoon with informal competitions in the hammer-throw, broad-jump, and high-jump.

Several members of the Dartmouth team, including Jerkins, a fast sprinter, and Hallock, star middle distance runner, worked with the Crimson team on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon...

In the indoor Intercollegiate in New York a week later, however, the Crimson team failed to live up to the expectations to which its work during the preceding weeks had entitled it. Morse secured a fifth place in the high jump, Burke by fast running come home fourth in the mile-against unusually keen competition, while Captain Brown won an easy victory in the 35-pound weight throw
