...Baxter and Alexander Grant, of U. of P., R. Sheldon of Yale, M. Long of Columbia, and Flanagan of the N. Y. A. C., will form a team of American athletes at the English championship games on June 29. Each member of the team will pay his own expenses, and so will be independent of any college or athletic association. The men will sail in the second week of June...

...shot-put Yale has F. G. Beck '03 M.S. and R. Sheldon '02S. Beck is making better distance than ever before and it is possible that he will equal the world's record before the end of the season.

Last year he was bothered by the turn in the throwing circle and his best throws were fouled by stepping outside the limits. He has been coached by John Flanagan, the world's champion in this event, and has now nearly overcome this difficulty...
...Cambridge Gymnasium. Grant took the lead at the start, and soon lapped the whole field except Kanaly, who easily kept near him. Toward the end Kanaly sprinted, but Grant had a good lead and won out in 9m. 40 4-5s. R. Grant '97 was third. R. Sheldon of Yale, the scratch man in the shot-put, was too heavily handicapped and could not win a place in the event. S. G. Ellis '01 took third place, with a handicap of 3 1-2 inches, his actual put being 41 ft. 4 1-2 in. The winner...
...ability of the squad. In the sprints Yale should be strong this year, as Boardman and Dupee are in College and the new material promises well. Captain Fincke is a probable point winner in the hurdles, and Clapp, Thomas and Mead have shown ability in this event. Sheldon, Beck and Stillman in the shot put, Spraker in the high jump, Weston in the mile run and Boardman in the quarter mile are strong men. For the half mile and two mile runs there is a distinct lack of promising material, and in the pole vault the loss by graduation...
