...yard dash today and will probably place well, as both showed up well in the indoor meets this past winter. C. S. Babbitt '18 and R. W. Harwood '20 will be the only other members of the University to compete, both being entered in the pole-vault. Harwood is an especially brilliant vaulter, holding the University interscholastic meet record, and may score at Philadelphia today...

Yet in 1915 Harvard had only one entry for the hammer-throw and three entries for the pole-vault in the Yale meet. Last year Harvard entered three men to Yale's eleven in the hammer-throw, and three men to Yale's ten in the high jump.
