...heat, with deSelding of Harvard always within a few yards. After the turn the pair drew away from all the other runners except Conger of Princeton, who at one time threatened to displace deSelding from second. Both Merrihew and Kelly of Harvard qualified in the third heat, although the latter barely held his place by tying with Palmer of Haverford for third. Merrihew ran under difficulties all the way. He was forced to run wide at the turn on account of his position at the extreme right, and in the final stretch he was boxed and several times...
Foster of Harvard and Dawbarn of Princeton were both winners of their heats in the 220-yard dash. The latter made the best time, but was more closely pressed. Foster had and easy win from Gamble of Princeton, Newll of Pennsylvania, and McArthur of Cornell, in 22 1-5 seconds. Minds of Pennsylvania and Hawley of Dartmouth were closely matched for second in Dawbarn's heat, which was won in 21 4-5 seconds. Watson of Harvard won his way to the semi-finals by taking fourth. Cary of Yale did not start and is definitely out of the meet...
...yard dash promises to be a critical event from a Harvard standpoint. Princeton expects Dawbarn to win from Foster, although the latter beat him in the Pennsylvania relay games early in the season. Since then Foster has constantly improved and will be at his best today and tomorrow. Sherman of Dartmouth, who took second a year ago, is not expected to compete as he strained a tendon last week. In his absence third and fourth places should lie between Minds of Pennsylvania, Hawley of Dartmouth, and Cary of Yale. Gamble of Princeton has not been in the best of condition...
...consistently fast runners and one of them is likely to take fourth place away from Coney of Yale. Jaques will probably not run in the two-mile, and it is not likely that Paull will be able to win from Dull of Michigan after running the mile. The latter was third two years ago when the present record was established. Taylor and Young, both or Cornell, are likely to beat McGee and perhaps Paull...
Records are likely to go in the pole-vault and the hammer throw. In the latter event Talbott of Connell has consistently beaten 160 feet and recently made a throw of 167 feet and 4 inches. Cooney of Yale and Horr of Syracuse are closely matched for second place, while the fourth position should be easy for Andrus of Yale. Yale again stands out conspicuously in the pole-vault. Campbell and Nelson are both practically sure of beating the existing record of 12 feet and the new mark will probably be considerably higher. Barr of Harvard and Cook of Cornell...
