Cornell is entering the meet as the general favorite; and Coach Moakley has developed a powerful, well balanced squad up at Ithaca. But the Big Red team is in for a real battle against both Dartmouth and Yale; Harvard, unless there is a startling upset, will trail the winner, though Jaakko Mikkola's men might pick up third place. Their principal importance will come in determining how many points they will take away from Cornell and Dartmouth in the running events; Northrop might beat Meadon and Donovan might beat Pender, two events that would toss the Big Red pretty much...
Their smashing victory over the Yale team in a dual meet last Saturday showed one thing clearly: Cornell is going to be the team to beat in the Quadrangular Track Meet in the Garden Saturday. When the Red team's Coach Jack Moakley was here for the BAA games, he felt that he had the makings of a fine, well balanced squad. And the justification of that prediction was shown at least in part in that meet in Ithaca's Drill Hall as the Cornell trackmen snowed under the Elis on the boards so completely that the bulldog superiority...
...only events that Yale managed to take against Jack Moakley's boys Saturday were the high jump, the broad jump, the pole vault and the 35 pound weight. The Elis will be right in the running in all of these events on Saturday, with Bill Handing, the star pole vaulter, being pretty sure of taking his event. The star Eli's principal opposition will come from the Crimson's Win Pettingell, who, while at Exeter, once beat Harding, then an Andover star. But since that time the Yale boy has stepped out and he did 13' 9" at the Millrose...
Harvard must get practically top performance all the way along the line if it is to prevail over one of the best balanced teams Jack Moakley has ever built at Cornell. Cornell is figured to score in 13 of the 15 events on the program, and Harvard in the same number. The preliminary dope sheets appearing in Cambridge show Harvard to have a probable total of 52 points, Cornell 50 points, Pennsylvania and Princeton 33 points each, Yale 32, Dartmouth 29, and Columbia...
...rather determined and powerful track squads that intend to smother any aspirations the Harvard track men may have of gaining their ninth straight victory in the fifteenth annual Triangular Meet at Boston Garden tonight. Taking the results of the IC4A games as an indication, the veteran Cornell coach, Jack Moakley, and his boys are favored to take the team title back home with them...
