...mile relay Harvard was doomed by Lightbody's tiring 880. Running in the number three spot, he handed the baton and a one-yard lead to Anchorman Torby Macdonald, who was unable to withstand the speed of Cornell's Johnny Nevius and took second...
...promises to occupy the meet spotlight, with Jim Lightbody defending his meet record against a brilliant field. Last year he blazed across the line in 1:13.8, leading Dartmouth's Jud Foster and Cornell's Johnny Nevius by little more than a broad grin.
