Garrett, a sprinter comparatively unknown to the public, continued his consistently fast season's performances by plowing through a 23.8 50 to win the two-lap title.

So far it has been all sacrifice for Harvard this winter, as Plan E lies in the graveyard and town animosity has reached an all time high. The spectacle is sad; but, if it serves as an example and warning to Dartmouth, Harvard's suffering has not been entirely in vain...
