...Heps, Yale's and Harvard's two-milers battled in one of the most exciting races this season. In the last quartermile Doug Hardin clocked a spectacular 60 seconds, opening up a 20-yd. lead over Yale's Frank Shorter, who had lead the entire race. Hardin broke the two-mile record and earned the meet's outstanding performer award...
Bittner ran the 1000 Saturday, but lost to Crimson Colburn who defeated him with a superb tactical race. If Bittner should again challenge Colbur instead of running the mile, coach Bill McCurdy will put Shaw in the 1000 to give Harvard a first and second place threat in that event over Yale...

With just over a lap to go, he uncorked an astounding kick to open up a twenty-yard lead. Hardin's last quarter-mile was clocked in 60 seconds, and his overall time of 8:48.6 shattered his own meet record of 8:56.4 set last year. Dave Pottetti took fourth place behind Downey and Shorter...
