...tying for second place in the spring sports with an aggregate of 13 points, Gore Hall captured the title in the interdormitory athletic competition. Smith led in points during the spring, but the lead piled up by Gore during the fall and winter proved too great to be overcome...

...mile Saturday afternoon the Crimson entries were Haggerty and Cutcheon. The Sophomore star decisively demonstrated his superiority to other college milers by a brilliant victory in the event. During the early stages of the race he was content to let the others keep the lead and while the rest of the field fought Cavanaugh of B. C. for the first position he ran easily in fourth or fifth place, always within striking distance of the leader. It was not until the final stretch that the Crimson runner tore loose from the field and took the lead with a sprint that...

As Yale took the measure of a Princeton team which had twice beaten Harvard with ease, the net result of the afternoon was decidedly damaging to Crimson hopes against the Blue...

Captain Dexter Cummings will lead off for the Eli golfers. He has been intercollegiate champion for the last two years and has set up a score of 71 for the Westchester Biltmore Country Club course, which has only been surpassed by Hagen. The remainder of his team, composed of Wattles, Flinn, Ordway, Haviland, and Tuttle, present a powerful array, which has only been defeated this year by Princeton. Although the latter fell before the University onslaught, it would be unwise to take much stock in the comparative scores, since they are still more undependable in golf than in any other...
