...over the past records which follow. It is a pity that the dates are not given in the table of collegiate records. How many Harvard men of today know that Wendell Baker's quarter-mile, though run straightaway, was merely one of a series of extraordinary performances on his part. His records appear on a special board in the meeting room of the Gymnasium, but what reader of the Illustrated would go near the Gymnasium! Kilpatrick's half-mile should scarcely be called a collegiate record. It was made in the international meet of 1895 when...
...seconds. Dwight of Princeton held second place until the last hurdle, when Howe overhauled him. In the race for the tape Howe won by inches. Piper of Harvard was fourth. The first heat was somewhat similar, as Rand was behind Robbins of Yale for the first part of the race. Talcott of Cornell won the heat with Rand second. The finals found all four men in their best form. Hartranft led at first, but was passed by Howe a safe distance from the end. Rand beat out Talcott for third place...

...assured of two places. Gardner took second to Hartranft in the first heat, and Rand just beat out Craig for second in the other heat, which was won by Howe. The final heat was almost a repetition of the race at New Haven two weeks ago. Gardner led for part of the distance, but lost time in clearing the hurdles. On the last hurdle Howe secured a lead that gave him the race by the narrowest of margins. Hartranft and Rand had a close contest for third, the former prevailing...
