...finish of the 100-yards dash, Schick sprained a tendon, but in spite of this ran in both heats of the 220-yards dash and, handicapped as he was, won third in the finals. Converse and Behr were both handicapped in their races; the former from lack of practice, the latter from being badly spiked on Friday. Haigh ran a beautiful race in the quarter-mile, having it well in hand from the start. Bird, in the semi-finals of the high hurdles, running, up to the seventh hurdle, practically a dead heat with Clapp for first place, twisted...

...continually put Larned on the defensive. Larned, however, was the steadier of the two and frequently won points on Blagden's driving into the net. Both men placed accurately on the side and back lines, except on cross-court strokes, but were somewhat weak on the back-hand. Blagden ran to the net very often, where Larned was unable to pass him. His service, though erratic, was in general effective, and repeatedly forced an easy return...

...record of 15 3-5 seconds for the high hurdles was broken by E. K. Clapp '03 in 15 2-5 s. In the polo vault, W. McLanahan '05S. cleared 11 ft. 6 1-2 in., breaking the former record by 3 1-2 inches. F. R. Moulton '03S. ran the 220-yards dash in 21 3-5 second, the former record being 21 4-5 seconds. Moulton also apparently ran the 100-yards dash in 9 4-5 seconds, but as there was considerable wind at his back, the judges credited him with 10 seconds...
