...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 lately and may not place, a though he was fourth last year. McArthur of Cornell and Geary of Fordham are fast men and are not to be over-looked...
Merrihew has made the fastest time of the year in the 440-yard run and is looked upon as the probable winner. Hitchcock of Cornell is a fast runner and may be stronger than Merrihew for tomorrow's race. LaMontagne of Yale has been rapidly regaining his form and may show enough improvement to be among the foremost. DeSelding is the only one of last year's point winners remaining, and with Blumer, who will probably enter this event, should materially strengthen Harvard's chances...
Yale is counting on making a good showing in the 880-yard run with Spitzer, Mann, and Kirjassoff. Beck of Pennsylvania has made the fastest time of the season for this distance, however, and may come in ahead of the Yale runners. An even more formidable competitor is French of Cornell, who was second last year. Princeton has a good team entered for this event in Whitely, Laird, and Frantz. Warren and Guild of Harvard are strong runners and if they qualify this afternoon may be able to take a place tomorrow...
Very fast time is expected in both the distance runs. Jaques of Harvard and Paull of Pennsylvania have been unbeatable all the year and if they come together in the mile a new record is likely to result. McGee of Princeton is almost in the same class. May, Tower, and West, all of Michigan, are 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...
...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 have both cleared 12 feet and may be able to divide the points with the Yale vaulters...
